OP fails at life....I do just one of those things, I still have a landline.

I am not a boomer but…I have only been to the mall 3 times in the last year. Once to meet friends for lunch. Once to pick up an online order from Macy’s/JCPenny and once to buy Christmas gifts at Bath and Body Works and Miss A. Prior to my kids moving out they were the only reason I ever shopped the Mall. And really most people I’ve seen loitering at the Mall are Millennials and Gen Z.

Your list is kind of dumb.

As a Boomer……Things I hate about the new generation

Tattoos and piercings
Shorts below the knees
Infatuation with video games
Your music sucks
Houses with all walls, cabinets, trim…White
Baseball caps with a flat brim

My mother ( who recently passed) was a boomer. Had a cell phone. Communicated via text complete with emoji’s. Shopped at Walmart/Target and rarely went to the mall. Never watched online shopping channels or 24/7 news programs and never used fuzzy toilet seat covers.

I go to JCP Big and Tall for clothes. I like to hit the close out racks too. I like to see what I am getting.
I use my rewards points. Don't want the hassle of online ordering etc. returns....UGH.

Your music sucks

As said by every generation since...well...ever.

I don’t know about that

Classic Rock from the 60-70s is still played and identifiable 50 years later

I don’t see the staying power for todays music

Whoever made the list was pretty lazy in characterizing Boomers

Word art, fuzzy toilet seats and ironing creases in pants are hardly defining of a generation

I am a early Gen X, just past the Boomer 2s.
I don't fit with my generation, never did. I abhor the 80s, I believe that is one of this nations worst decades on almost every level. It is when widespread narcissism really took hold. Materialism/Consumerism/Debt as Income, high divorce rates, modern feminism and the society crushing effects of that.
So because of that - I identify waaaay more with the 70s. Even though I was born in 65.
