generations

For those not in the know, "OK Boomer" is a dismissive retort often used to disregard or mock Baby Boomers and those who are perceived as old-fashioned and being out-of-touch. Part of this phenomenon is the feature that many baby boomers themselves consider this to be an ageist slur. This in turn has been seen by many as a hypocritical overreaction that has been met with more Ok Boomer Roasting on Twitter. The whole thing has stirred up more discussion and argument about age and politics. Here is a Gen-X perspective and explanation of why "ok boomer" is becoming more than just a thing people say on Twitter.

One of our new favorite subreddits pokes fun at Baby Boomers for all their outdated antics and notorious inability for being able to keep up with these fast changing times. Baby boomers had it coming. 

Twitter users are roasting millennials for how they're planning for retirement, in viral Twitter hashtag. The main joke here seems to be that there is no plan at all. 

Twitter user @calluna_, responded to a professor who complained about the millennials being the lamest, most intolerable generation by transcribing a collection of 18th century student disciplinary records, and sharing her findings. Turns out things were pretty out of control in the 18th century. Makes the millennials look pretty reasonable after all. 

A rare Tumblr post that actually doesn't bash millennials for ruining another industry. Wow. 

In all fairness the older generations did have to walk to school in the snow. That being said this Tumblr rant from an angry millennial is bound to get the people going. 

This is the kind of Twitter thread that just gives you life. Those millennials and their dang ruthless jokes man. 

I heard the rambling voices of extended family echo through my mind while reading this absolutely hilarious thread. It would seem that the youth have decided to wage further war against those baby boomers by starting a Facebook group dedicated to trolling their reputation for having troubling navigating the ins and outs of social media. The resulting statuses and comments sections are comedy goldmines. 

Life is full of people saying one thing and doing another thing. It's probably one of the most frustrating things about other people. This frustration was felt hard in this Askreddit post asking about the world's many double standards. So drink in the hypocrisy and try not to freak out about all this got-damn BS we all have to deal with every day.

Twitter users are sharing their hot and funny takes on what a modern day millennial commandment might look like. In the crafting of these hypothetical commandments, they've managed to capture a lot of the more comical traits that fall together, to define parts of the millennial generation. 

It's the season for giving, and if you're a millennial, Twitter's suggesting that could entail credit card bills. Leave it to the internet to hone in on all the spicy stereotypes making up a generation, to troll the ever living sh*t out of millennials that much harder. 

There isn't much left for them to kill off...

What a wonderful time to be alive. Millennials are just trying to keep up with a world that changes too fast. 

To be fair to previous generations, they did have to walk to school uphill both ways in the snow.
