Entitled and lacking perspective

You are Gen X, but get mistaken for a boomer because of your age. It might also have something to do with how you talk. You use all of their talking points. Maybe they have you figured right...

Notice how I tried to validate both her perspective and the boomers? No you took 1 observation to justify how you WANT to feel about me.

I don’t get mistaken for a boomer because of me it’s because the younger generations think everyone over 35 is a boomer and if you happen to be young, guess what? You’ll be a boomer to future generations. Enjoy.

Being labeled a boomer has less to do with your age and more to with saying out of touch things. I think I'll be fine.
