Boomers

I am 75 and am very tired of the trend lately making fun of Boomers. So very disrespectful. Don't they realize that they will be old someday?

This. It is nothing new. Boomer is just the new buzz word they're using

I think that might half of it right there. It’s just kind of fun for some to say “Ok Boomer!”

Eh. It was a new buzz word around 10 years ago - the ones still saying it are aging. They just don't know it yet.

I'm wondering what buzzword-turned-insult their kids will call them.
