You may be young and spriteful, but the new RAM 1500 is engineered to move heaven and earth. Your guts. My glory. Ram.

You are now under arrest by the US DOJ.

The joke is the joke is boomer humor?

[–] Bbbbbbbbbbb@lemmy.world 33 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

The joke is extreme violence against children

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

millennials are in their 30s...

[–] rainwall@piefed.social 11 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (1 children)

And 40s, but to a kid anything over 20 is a senior citizen.

[–] sem@piefed.blahaj.zone 7 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

"Back in may day, the Internet came on a CD-ROM from the grocery store."

Accurate, we are senior citizens already.

[–] popekingjoe@lemmy.world 6 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

CDROM? Mine came on a floppy disk. 👴

[–] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Floppy disk? If we wanted internet, we had to churn a few Kilobytes of data ourselves

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

We used to have to whistle in the payphone in order to call the Pope.

[–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Nobody went to a net cafe and used some coins to get on the internet?

[–] Septimaeus@infosec.pub 5 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Well, I have a little millennial in me but could always use more

Accurate representation of @Septimaeus@infosec.pub's inbox.

These mfs never heard of public transportation

Why for Boomer not share money with me?

[–] BygoneNeutrino@lemmy.world -3 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (1 children)

Here's what I don't understand about the Boomer hate: If all Boomers are lucky and rich-and all of our parents or grandparents are Boomers-should'nt we love boomers since we will eventually inherit their wealth?

[–] Trincapinones@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

They are aware of it, that's why they are busy spending it.

[–] Derpenheim@lemmy.zip 14 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Mine are gambling literally every day. They have no savings/checkings, and have a second mortgage that they are literally not paying.

[–] MML@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 weeks ago

Mine just go out to eat at the same shitty restaurant everyday and complain that it's shitty. Live in the middle of nowhere, tips less than $5 per table, yeah I wonder why all the waitresses aren't flocking from the 5 star restaurants in the city...

[–] Miaou@jlai.lu 3 points 3 weeks ago

My Dad bought a Porsche less than a month after my Grandma died. She had written she wanted some of her savings to go directly to her grandkids, but it wasn't binding so... And then boomer fathers wonder why their kids hate them ¯\(ツ)

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 5 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Spending it now, or spending it when they're old and infirm and living in hospice where the last of their money gets spent.

[–] wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah, people seriously underestimate the costs of elder care.

[–] BygoneNeutrino@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

...I am the son that is both able and willing to serve as a care taker. I'm sure my parents get that I'm self-serving, but it beats the hell out of a retirement home. Having one kid without a family doesn't hurt.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago

bold of you to assume they can afford hospice.
