Boomer Hate Thread

Besides the pricing of houses, another thing boomers have ruined is raw land prices.

During the Summer of Love, and when it seemed that there was a slight possibility of a second civil war, it caused a huge exodus of MAGABoomers/boomer cons fleeing the bigger towns and suburbs to more rural areas.

Here in central Texas, pre-Covid in 2019 you could have gotten an 1850 sq foot barndominium house with 67(!) acres for 425k.

Meanwhile, 4 weeks ago I was looking at land prices in the same area. An 800 sq foot (lol) barndominium on 27 acres went for….*drum roll*

800k…

I understand wanting your children to learn to fend for themselves, but what confuses me is that boomers and those of boomer mindset do it in such a way where they live in luxury while the child lives in near poverty. The boomer never joins the child in the lesser setting, they always maintain their own luxuries.

It's like riding a top-of-the-line bike in front of a child and telling the child "you gotta learn" then riding off. Then the child just sits there alone and struggles to ride a rusty old bike that isnt their size, has no training wheels, and they dont know how to so much as adjust the seat.

Like how hard is it to just help your kids? Provide some wisdom? The whole point of birthing the next generation is so they are better than you. If you have acquired resources or wisdom to make your children more capable of survival, then what is wrong with helping children? Why do children have to start from 0?

Most baby boomers didnt start from 0. They might have started at the bottom of the corporate ladder, but this was during a time where resumes were not needed, higher education degrees and certifications were not needed, post-war economy provided substaintial uplift, they had a homogenous society, there were less government regulations so people and the environment were more easily exploited, and they had the support of the previous generations who DID help their children.

It's all so mind boggling.

A perfect summary of Boomer mentality.

"Kids these days are lazy. When I was in college I picked corn for a whole summer and saved $500 for a deposit on my first house!"

Yes, anything to deny inheritance to their own children, which I’ve noticed some get really fucking angry about. They are supposed to be the ones taking, not giving, and they will never let you forget it.

This really angers me. Those selfish fucks will defend their selfishness by saying, "But it's my money!" after they inherited the entire estate from their own parents.

Boomers ruined the prices for old cars. I found this dealer on tiktok called vanguard auto sales. And, jesus christ on the fucking cross, their prices are insane.
Their cheapest vehicle is a 1991 Toyota pickup with 4wd and 71k miles, and the price: OVER $70k

Almost all their classic vehicles in their inventory are over $100k

Genuinely this is why I basically gave up on muscle cars and malaise era cars as something to like and have given into the cigarette car trend.

If its any consolation, those cars will likely be a fraction of their value after the boomers die off in 10-20 years.

The thing about car collecting is that, while certain cars might be considered universally cool across generations (e.g. original Camaro), in general people want the cars they grew up with. Millennials and GenX want Toyota trucks and Supras, Boomers want muscle cars or land yachts, and silent/greatest gen wanted pre-WW2 cars.

Because the silent/Greatest gen has mostly died or stopped buying cars, a lot of the pre-WW2 cars have dropped a lot in value. Certain ones like the Model A coupes and any Duesenberg will still command high prices, but if you aren't picky about brand or model you can easily get a fully restored 1920s/30s car for under 10k.

I expect the same pattern to occur with 1950s/1960s cars in the next 10-20 years as the boomers die off.
 
Those Boomers who love to advise young people to "Walk right up to the manager, look him in the eye and give him a firm handshake!" are the exact same assholes who wouldn't employ Gen X kids because "You don't have enough experience."
 
Classic car prices will quickly deflate after boomers die because the average millennial and zoomer will never have big enough garages or sheds to accommodate several cars. Keep in mind the oldest millennial cohort is 45.

Boomers love to steal from everyone around them, they're spiritual gypsies.

PL time: my Boomer parents bought a rundown Mobile home Park (they owned all the land and all the units), and I worked there for free for close to two decades under the agreement of when they go, I inherit it. I did everything: maintenance, landscaping, plumbing, renovations, evictions, all the paperwork. I turned that place from a slovenly, unlivable shithole, into an actually nice place to live. And I did it all for free, like a retarded Reddit Janny. My mom had one of her schizo episodes a few months after my dad died, and decided to sell the place. And you know what I got?

I got zilch, nada, goose egg, a vacation to cwcville, bossmanJack's bank account, the same amount that Ethan Ralph's baby mama receives in child support, absolutely fucking nothing.
A huge portion of my life wasted, so many lucrative opportunities passed up, numerous life-altering injuries, all for nothing.

And her defense? "iM sOo bRoKe, I nEeD tHe mOnEy oR iM gOnNa sTaRvE1!1!". Even though her income WITHOUT the rent from the park was still close to $8,000 a month between her social security and my dad's pension, and her actual outgoing expenses with all of her bills plus food, gas, and leisure was under $2000.

Everyday I dream of the day of the pillow.

Please PLEASE tell me you don't talk to her anymore---better yet, ditched her stupid ass altogether.

Grandpa Starscream is most likely close to having dirt for breakfast soon. I feel nothing. Mama Starscream and her brothers will most likely just turn him to ashes and put out a Facebook RIP post. Papa Starscream's folks still don't think he did well in life (he retired from a great federal job, got 2 licenses for special vehicles, and puts up with his dumbass adult kids (me and Brother Starscream). It'll never be enough for them because my old man had the absolute gall to marry a woman whom he truly fell in love with, but she had kids from a previous marriage (first husband was a disgusting kike)

My folks constantly tell me that if I find a man, as long as he treats me good and pulls his own weight, they will welcome him with open arms.

Just realized this, this extreme short slightness seen in modern corporations is nothing but the Boomer mentality here.
 
My job is having trouble finding staff and some boomer I was working with was like "Your generation don't wanna work these days." I was like, "Yeah, but to be fair you can work your ass off and not afford a house, family, car, hell even a vacation once a year, so what's the point? May as well stay home and play video games." He admitted he hadn't thought of it that way and that I had a point. XD

Woah, i can't believe a boomoid actually rubbed two braincells together. Most of them will just go "Bah, you're just lazy and don't care about others or the country".
 
I'm noticing that every generation is being hated for being the selfish "me" generation.

Also people who say they hate their generation are snowflake house niggers lmao.

Let's be real the boomers started that. They ran that 2013 TIME magazine called "The Me Generation" about millennials. I remember reading that thinking, nigga im literally a teenager?? Like let me spread my wings a bit before you go throwing these accusations around? Ffs.

Yeah I remember Boomers repeatedly putting Millennials down before Millennials retaliated with "okay boomer" as a way to blow them off. Boomers have an inexplicable unwarranted belief they have every right to shit on younger generations for some reason.

They're not wrong, but the blame doesn't rest with Biden solely, Congress is the real problem. They borrow money against debt, raise the debt ceiling and shuffle debt around so they can borrow more, the Biden admin just contributed to the problem.

Zoomers are more of the “okay boomer”/“fuck boomers” generation, especially post 2000 Gen Z.

Millennials pre Covid were kind of half hearted on the screw boomers train but the moment Covid hit they got manipulated by said boomers to be their attack dogs in terms of keeping things shut down.

I did a litmus test on (P)Reddit to see what millenials think of boomers in a post Covid world and it’s basically “uhhh yeah they might have screwed up politics and economy, but they deserve to live happy lives none the less!”

My guess is the reason they did the switch, other then the trope of millennials being giant spineless faggots, is that they sense the time for their parents to pass on is near, and they’re hoping that if they show good boy/girl behavior, that get might get inheritance (lmao, no they aren’t).
