I wonder how THE MILLENIALS will react when the Gen-Zers/Gen-AA/AB/ACers start saying 'ok millenial' at them!!!

It's the "eyyyyy, sit on it" of important youth, more like.

I will never stop finding it amusing that this cartoonist has the same name as the guy who wrote 'Timelash'.

I think you find that the rich work harder?

I think it's hilarious how impossibly angry people get over it - if that's the sort of thing that makes you incandescent with rage, then you've clearly been coasting through life and are utterly deserving of it.

And that cartoon just shows how oblivious the targets are - it was the whole 'millennials eat tide pods and avocado toast, nyaaah' that started this round of  stupid inter-generational bickering. All it needed was a 'I heart Greta Thunberg' badge to bring the whole thing full circle.

do millennials snort condoms and eat dishwasher tabs?

Yes this, I'm not that up to date with the latest things the generations are accusing each other of but I'm totally foxed by that cartoon. But then being born in 1979 I'm exempt from all this, way too young to be a boomer, just about too old to be a Millennial.

One thing I like about boomers is they use the word opinion instead of take.

2025 will make 1956 look like 1968.

Do you find people getting angry about the OK Symbol or Pepe the Frog funny? Ok Boomer is no different. It's bigotry and violence disguised behind something innocuous

People rolling their eyes at their elders is the same as covert white supremacy symbols? Wow, you're outdoing yourself as Sultan of the Hot Takes.

The funny(?) thing is, Gen X is going to get fucked by the millennials too. The availability of the contraceptive pill caused a population slump in Gen X that largely recovered in the next generation. Outvoted by the crumblies, outvoted by the ignorant kids who don't know what it's like not to have an NHS and a welfare state.

Yeah, I dislike it cause it's just writing people off based on when they were born

If you have a problem with their attitude explain what's wrong on an individual level, not roping in millions of people just based on age, thus stripping away individual identity

You've misunderstood. You can be of the baby boomer generation without Ok Boomer applying to you. You can even be Gen X or an old millennial. It's all about the level of absolute clueless fuckshittery that exists in your heart.

I'm with you.

It's just a lazy, undeserving insult that targets a lot of people for no good reason. Much in the same way I don't go for the whole millennials are idiots thing.

Shit for cunts basically.

Yeah 82 I was born, so I see these millennial vs boomer posts and just roll my eyes/ cringe a little.

As a member of Gen X, all I can say is 'meh'.

Why does it have to be OK Boomer then? (It seems to spin on the percieved stereotypes of being a "boomer")?

Why not "OK"?

I've used that myself as a short, curt "whatever mate" thing
