OMG! I guess I'm not a Boomer! My house is only 650 square feet!

I also never voted for Reagan.

I also never 'voted in' the Moral Majority.

I also never blamed another generation for anything.

I'm an Orphan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got no identity, man! woe is me...

I notice that older generation always criticizes the younger generation. It seems like there is no mutual respect.

Saying How did we get from being men and women of honor to a subclass of entitled and counter-culture, whiny, wussified leaches? Yeah, right. Just because you fought different wars, doesn't mean you are tougher or better. Of course I am not saying all of them are like that, but certain people just have this type of mentality, which is annoying.
IMHO it ain't real "nice" for vets to criticize other vets as long as the ones being talked about acted like proper soldiers.

You don't think cooks get better with age?

Somebody posted a poll of poster's ages an hour or so ago. It's overwhelmingly Boomers and Millennials. I wonder if that's the case every time a thread like this takes off in POC.

Oh, gag me! I find it's the young ones who are inflexible. They haven't had enough experience to learn that you have to bend a little.
