I agree with you. Boomer’s saw their kids as inconveniences to be swept aside. They were more concerned with scoring blow and going to see The Fix in concert during the 80’s. The pill was specifically designed for us in mind, fortunately we survived.
I was a latch key kid, but I don’t blame my Mom. She did the best she could under the circumstances. Boomers denigrate us through name calling examples: lazy, slackers, dumb, unmotivated and useless. I have some names for them narcissistic, self-aggrandizing, vacuous, self-absorbed, assholes.

Are you suggesting there is a hidden socialist agenda afoot in this country? Today? At this time? Shhh... Dude be quiet the’ll hear you!

Lets see. Aids, Iraq, Afghanistan, worst economy since the Great Depression, drugs, unwarranted wire tapping, teen pregnancy, a failing education system, just to name a few. Oh, yeah while you were crouching under a desk waiting for armageddon, kids today have to worry about the very possible reality of getting shot in their classroom. Communists? Okay. How about nameless, faceless, terrorist cells operating in the United States, willing to use planes as missiles to kill Americans. Better now? Home foreclosures, 13 million unemployment rate, selling off all our assets to foreign countries, outsourcing all our jobs overseas. We no longer manufacture (make things to export). Boomers are the figureheads of every major institution in the United States. It has been this way for at least the last three to four decades. So,you tell me if things are better today? Or would the younger generations have been better off, if they were raised by the greatest generation?

Who’s going to take care of you when your diapers need to be changed? The kids your generation neglected, because they were too inconvenient to raise? The children that birth control was designed for? Hey, good luck with that!

I’m not religious, so spare me you’re religious sermon.

Not nearly as much as Bush (the sequel) or Clinton. Iraq, Afghanistan, outsourcing American jobs for cheaper labor. Ask this question. Who has been in power the last thirty to forty years? Answer: Boomers. Boomers control politics, business, media, education, basically every aspect of modern day American society.

That’s wrong. People are defined by their birthday and what time they were born. Don’t you get it? Our whole society is predicated on mass consumerism and labeling. We put labels on foods, buildings, bus stops, high school lockers, laptops, notebooks, book bags, buses, cars, etc. etc. We are all part of the collective. To be an individual is to invite destruction. Come with me child. Come back to the garden where we can rejoice in the musical stylings of Joan Baez and Cat Stevens. Come back to the garden.

No. It’s the fault of both the libtard’s and the repulequizards that caused this, dabnabit, sweet tarnation, good godly mess! If not them, then it’s dem damn kids in the Mystery Machine, and that dog Scooby.

I’m not a boomer. I know from history that there is a deep division between Boomer’s on the Right, and Boomer’s on the Left. I just want to ease your mind, and tell you that the younger generation’s will fix the problems your generation (all inclusive)have created. Now, I noticed you use the word “whine” to denigrate the younger generations. Well, I just want you to know that this particular word usage has no affect on us. Why? Because we have no respect for your vacuous generation, and we never have. So, feel free to enjoy the life you have left; maybe even get another face-lift or two. I know how much you hate to admit that your getting old. Sit back and enjoy retirement. Hey, you guys have been in power for the last 40 years, and just look at what you have done. Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush II, Obama. You guys really did change the world! Thanks too you I’ll never have to worry about my retirement portfolio! I and millions of other Americans will be working till the day we die. Oh, wait you’ve outsourced all the jobs. Never mind!

Huh. I get it “wet behind the ears.” Us youngsters can’t help but note the irony (because irony is our weapon of choice),that it was the boomers that sent their kids to war. Yes, the same boomers who protested the Vietnam War. Yep you got it, have sent their sons and daughters to participate in an unsanctioned war in Iraq, and a quagmire in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, the economy is collapsing, the housing market has burst, Social Security will be expended by 2038, if not sooner, and the jobless rate continues to plummet. Yep. You boomers really did change the world! Lets’s celebrate with drugs and some “indiscriminate fucking.”
