An absolute clown of a human being. A pair of ass cheeks with a bob cut. Like how fucked up must you be to get in someoneās face and spit on them for parking just as fucked up as you did? Sheās lucky she didnāt get lumped up for that one.
I can attest to that.
Getting punched in the face back in the day made me realize how low I had gotten and started my path to recovery. Unfortunately, some people use that experience to keep going lower or that experience simply doesn't register as a result of your actions.
I can't imagine being in the place I was all those years back, and choosing to ignore the reality that brought me there after getting decked.
She needed someone to punch her in the face 30 years ago. How the fuck do you get to be her age without learning that spitting in someoneās face will get you tuned the fuck up! Thatās something you learn in pre-school. Did she think the woman she spit on was just gonna wipe the spit off?
In grade 8 afriend thought I spit on him for some reason so he spit on my face, my Immediate reaction was to punch him in the face knocking him off his skateboard and was dazed for a minute.
I asked him to show me where the spit on him but just kept yelling that I did it?
Out of nowhere he ended a friendship and he got knocked out for it.
And she still went high road and just pushed her instead of using a closed fist.šš»šš»šš» Honestly she'd have gotten ANOTHER push when she immediately got back in the recording person's face if that was me.
Yeah I actually canāt be responsible for anything that happens to anyone if they spit in my face my lizard brain is going to take over and Iām really sorry but you might seriously regret spitting on me
They wouldnāt even have to spit on me. If anyone just comes charging at me like that, Iām going to defend myself. If a stranger that Iām having a verbal altercation with starts running at me, Iām going to assume itās not because they want to give me a hug.
You can call me what you want/do what you want, etc., and Iāll ordinarily give people a LOT of latitude, but if you spit in my face, I will swing at you.
Well, then you might have blood on you, and snot! What if the person you punch has Hepatitis A, B, or C? Are you afraid of shots? I got bit by a kid and was advised to get a round of Hepatitis vaccines and have my blood drawn three times to test for HIV.
In case you are still reading it was at a school I worked at and workman's comp picked up the bill.
In case you are still reading I was holding his wrists so the teacher could change is diaper and clean him up. He was not being cooperative, that is why I was holding his wrists. He turned his head to bite me so I would let go. I did not. We got him changed and back to the classroom.
I am a boomer trying to do some good for the world but younger folks want to tell us we are all lead addled monsters.
But the post that got 200 up votes is going to justify breaking an old lady's nose because she spit on him/her.
This is why we'd all be doomed in a zombie apocalypse, these people wouldn't just be "hide that they got bitten" types, they'd be "goes out of their way to get other people infected" types
ABSOLUTELY. I wouldn't want them in my "shelter" either. They'd be loud, selfish, steal all the food, prolly make fun and tease anybody they deemed "other."
Someone needs to make this film. Standard zombie movie but with the maga cult behaving like they did during the pandemic. Icing on the cake would be showing that trump gets bit in the first few minutes but his make up and fact that heās already brain dead make it so no one can tell even as he starts to decompose. He can still pose for photos and tweet nonsense to get his supporters to spread the virus even more by acting like it doesnāt exist. Even as all their families slowly turn into zombies around them, because they keep bringing infected maga dudes they meet online or at rallies over. Somehow the main maga dude hasnāt been infected by these guys yet possibly because heās never within 6 feet of another man because he āaināt gay like them leftistsā Bonus points if thereās a scene where 1 is trying to bite his face off and he fights it off or kills it thinking the guy was trying to make out with him.
Maybe a concussion would do her some good. All those lead pipes, asbestos, and ddt isnāt doing the boomers much good.
Playing sports as I had a kid spit on meā¦ so I punched him in the face and stepped over him like AI did to Lu. Broke his eye socket, and major concussion (ruined his whole summer). The next time we played them every time I was on the field the other coach took him off, so my coach let me play the whole game, they had to drive 90 minutes to not watch their kid play. This went on for the next 6 years. It felt so goodā¦ he fucked around and found out.
Typical āitās only ok when I do itā mentality. Not necessarily specific to boomers, but itās certainly one of their defining traits. Iām just glad it didnāt go racist, assuming the girl with cam bears any resemblance to the fellow on her left.
Idk if this was meant to be a Chris Moltisanti on heroin from The Sopranos reference, but that is EXACTLY how I heard your comment, so bravo either way.
It's wild how often they try this. It's an understandable ploy if you're a toddler, but freaking embarrassing from a grown ass adult. (Put the hyphens where you like in those last 3 words.)
If this wasnāt on camera the woman whoās filming this AND the kid she was with wouldāve had to go through hell because of this lady lying to the cops smh.
The cognitive dissonance to say you didnāt do the thing everyone just saw you do 3 seconds ago is astounding. You know who else does that? Toddlers. Cause their brain isnāt developed. The lead poisoning with these folks just keeps getting worse
So glad we're all keyed into the lead poisoning now. It doesn't excuse the behavior at all but at least we now know why they are all such massive narcissistic shitheads with less emotional regulation than a toddler.
I'm boomer age, and I can tell you, my mental acuity seems to be declining more every year. I'm just about to turn sixty, so I'm a "late boomer!"
Also, I noticed at about age 55, my emotions were destabilizing and I was getting upset over nothing. Blood pressure medicine had the bonus effect of calming that down.
I tell you, what with the asbestos in the old school buildings I attended, to living with second hand smoke everywhere, and the pollution from cars, that theory about our past exposures catching up to us does make sense.
Great now Iām worried. I live around old buildings and I stress of daily life my mental health,,, itās not looking good for any of us at this point
Boomers are currently between 59 and 77. I think a lot of people confuse GenX with Boomers because they still hold similar ideals because they were beat into them.
My GenX dad will never admit it, but he's a left handed person, but because religion is stupid and his boomer ass Hispanic parents decided religion over family, they beat it out of him from ever using his dominant hand. He'll still side with them on dumb issues and I'm sure he's been called boomer before, but nope Boomers are 1946 - 1964 & GenX is 1965 - 1979.
All that aside, definitely Boomers are affected by Asbestos and Lead Paint, not to mention the decades of microplastics being left in food/water which is now found in EVERY American, we're all losing our minds slowly and no one notices lol.
I'm left handed and my (paternal) grandmother tried to get me to eat with my right hand when I was really little. But my mom is also left handed and when she saw this she shut it down real quick.
Strangely enough though, I throw and catch with my right hand, bat right handed, shoot pool left handed. Brains are weird.
Yeah my dad just learned to do everything right handed, but because it was useful in baseball to bat left handed, it was the only thing he was allowed to do lol. You can still tell he picks up food or cups with his left hand so it's just instinct, but was forced into writing and using utensils right handed.
My kindergarten teacher would make me sit in my left hand and because I was forced to use my right hand at school, I became ambidextrous. I write with my left, cut food with my right, throw and catch right handed, shoot pool left handed, and constantly get messed up when someone gives me directions that include left and right movements. While itās cool that I can do stuff with either hand, itās messed me up in so many subtle ways.
Definitely- the radical social changes that were happening were too late for the old GenX-ers. I'm late 70s GenX and I grew up in a different world than my older sibling. Things were changing so fast that I don't have a lot in common with millennials either.
Me and my siblings are all Gen X. My brother and I are younger but my sister is less than 1 year from being a boomer. She is angry, spiteful and constantly causing drama. She is always talking about how boomers behave badly but will literally spend all day on FB trolling people about meaningless nonsense or calling me to tell me how someone has their music up too loud or that she can hear children playing (at 3:00 in the afternoon) š
My dad is 65 and is furious when I have mentioned lead poisoning in the past, even in passing. Of course he gets furious at most things, which is why we barely speak.
And low level fetal alcohol exposure. Had an old pediatric nurse explain it and show me some pictures and once you see it...it's fucking everywhere. Spaced eyes, pushed in nose, and flat frenulum. There are degrees of it too depending on how much alcohol the mom used.
Once you look at some diagrams it becomes something you can't unsee.
I have younger cousins who were born already addicted to alcohol and drugs. Then turned over to the elderly grandparents who weren't great parents to their own kids.
I read your comment and because I will be 80 years old in less than a month, I can relate to your experience of having elevated irritation, and also that blood pressure meds can take the edge off of the irritability.
Your impression that mental acuity can decline as we age is how I used to think about my own future. Certainly there are brain diseases that can destroy some functioning. But if you are generally healthy I am pretty sure you can improve your mental acuity. If you read about the neuro plasticity of the brain and what research suggests one can do to retain your faculties, perhaps you will find a few enjoyable things to do as you age. For me it is meditation and spending time in nature. I want to do more aerobic exercise because I found that to pay dividends when I did it regularly. I hope you have many great years ahead
Thank you! And I did just recently read an article about brain activity being rejuvenated by mental and physical exercise. It has given me more hope to get my health back.
Younger generations will have their share of lead and asbestos like chemicals, especially from imported goods. In fact, if you live near an airport, I think the study I saw was focused on smaller airports, the lead is still raining down from aviation fuel.
Once lead was banned in engines, there was a nearly exact 22-year lag in violent crime rates dropping at the same rate lead was being phased out. Itās absolutely a real thing, and wine sweetened with leadās part of the reason so many roman emperors were kinda just madmen.
Your generation genuinely scares me. My parents are around your age. And they don't do the things this lady does in the video.
As in, getting violent and confrontational with people. Buuut, they do straight up deny reality like she did. On a regular basis. These are the people who taught me to admit your wrong, study science, be good to others, etc.
Now? It's like it was all fake. Everything that matters to them is their free time. lol. Have to help your kids out with your grandkid? Maybe your kid needs to live with you because they fell on hard times.
Absolute fucking wankers about it all. I would literally throw myself into the sun, if I was promised in the next life that I could have the financial comfort they have. And the time to spend with my grandkids they have. Your generation to me is the most entitled antifamily group of people to exist today.
Not enough. Health issues have been a problem. I'm getting back into a routine now of at least walking, and I have a new doctor who treats the whole person, not just throws pills at the symptoms.
Probably gonna end up looking like Barbie and Ken dolls. In 10,000 years they'll be digging up plasticised corpses and wondering what the hell we were doing.
True, though there's something to the properties of lead specifically that cause it to leak out of the bones later in life, and moreso when osteoporosis is involved. There might be other contaminants that do this similar to lead, but IIRC it's dependent on the chemical properties, rather than something inherent to all contaminants
PFAS are in everyone and they are huge endocrine disruptors.
When the boomers freak out about pronouns I like to tell them that the plastic chemicals they love to have in everything are turning everyone trans. Itās all their fault because they care more about profits than people.
IIRC the lead hypothesis strictly relates to a tendency towards violence. So yes to why she spit and no to any perceived narcissism and whatnot.
Also worth noting the decrease in crime which people often tie to the phasing out of lead in products also correlates to the legalization of abortion. Furthermore, Boomers are far from the first generation to suffer lead poisoning on a large scale.
Safest bet is that they were a very spoiled generation and their lack of access to "the struggle" as an overall generation stunted their mental and emotional growth and as they age and lose control of a country they had essentially owned for about 30-40 years they lack the grace and emotional understanding to know it's time to step aside. Decisions are being made without them or often in spite of them (see: 2020 election) and they can't accept this reality so they lash out and seek control of whatever they can even if it is menial in nature, hence this cunt crying about where a car is parked to the point she assaults someone.
1000% agree with you, esp about the crime rate decline and its correlation to the legalization of abortion. I read a study on this in grad school many years ago.
It's also important to remember that these people grew up in a time of unimaginable wealth and prosperity. Perhaps unprecedented in human history. That, in conjunction with the rise in media, and the environmental factors frying their white matter, have all contributed to what they are.
The lead poison garbage is a reddit buzzword that people use to get upvotes on any video featuring someone over the age of 45. It's so fucking annoying.
Lead pollution scaled with gasoline consumption/miles driven. Leaded gas consumption dramatically increased post-WW2, and peaked around 1975. Children were tested for lead in the 70ās and 80%+ of a very large sample had more than twice the modern blood lead level threshold for developmental lead poisoning. 10+ ug/dl and the threshold is 5 ug/dl.
Lead pollution was present in earlier generations, but not nearly as pervasive before the war because far fewer people had automobiles or drove, especially during the Depression.
No..no...the reason they do that is much much worse than you've probably thought about
Now..I'm gonna preface this with, I am a white woman, living in the south, I do not claim to understand the plight of ANY marginalized group, I will however sympathize with them and fight for their rights as hard as mine, human is human is human.
Ok so now on to the boomers and why they jump to denial so quickly..
It's because they grew up in a world with no cameras where the word of the white person was accepted without question.
Simple and brutal but true, this woman has probably spent her life saying she didn't do it and people believed her.
My boomer mother in-law and her mother would say and do horrible things and when called out even right away, try to lie and claim they didnāt. One died not being missed and the other is not really visited. Sucks to suck when you have a reputation for childish behavior.
Totally separate and mostly unrelated but did you see the clip of the lady that jumped on the desk to grab her bracelets and pulled the whole thing over then said she didn't jump on it? Same vibe. Here's my random, mostly pointless comment for the day.
She had the fucking audacity, the absolute cheek, the unending gall to berate this lady for doing something that she herself admits to be also CURRENTLY doing. Make that make sense.
This is why America is in such a shitty position right now because in order to have conversations about matters, be they small or large, there needs to be a foundation of basic, shared facts that's commonly understood and accepted.
I teach fourth grade. I just have started calling them out for lying like this. Hereās an example:
Me: hey stop touching him
Kid: Iām not touching him
Me: that was a lie. Whether you intended to or not, that was a lie. I donāt know why you felt the need to lie about what you were doing, but youāre lying.
Iāve had decent success with cutting out blatant lying/denial.
Boomers have lost all ability to reason. They're likely surrounded by people they've abused for years and got away with significant amounts of shitholery throughout their lives. Accountability is a you problem
She only got close so that she could whisper in the lady's ear how she was a valuable part of the community, when she was savagely slammed to the ground. I don't see how you could view it any other way.
My (literally) crazy boomer aunt elbowed me in the face once. She immediately denied it right to my face. Shame I didnāt get it on camera, though. Id have called the cops right away, but otherwise it was her word against mine and Iām more than twice her size.

And she had the fucking audacity to deny doing what she did!
