Why are the Baby Boomers rude to others because they are failures at life. Why don't they die off?
My Boomer Tips
I am 17 and I hate the Baby Boomer generation with a burning passion. My father is a member of the Baby Boomer generation, and when he complains about my generation, I ask him who has nearly bankrupted America, destroyed our reputation around the world, and destroyed the great morals we once had. The Baby Boomers are the idiots who started experimenting with drugs in the 60's and the ones who have nearly made our economy totally collapse.
I work at a grocery store, and Baby Boomers are some of the most rude people I come across. Its like they know their generation sucks and that they have successfully fucked up America, but they want to take their bitterness out on my generation, which is smarter than theirs and will do more things. They act like I owe them something, and I don't. They owe me an apology, if anything, for fucking up my country and then blaming my generation for everything that goes wrong and telling us how bad we are.
I admire my grandfather, who was born in 1934, much more than my father. He went to Harvard and Cornell and was not an idiot like many Baby Boomers are. He has much more wisdom and intelligence than any Baby Boomer ever will.
If any Baby Boomers are on here, I have something to say: thanks for screwing up this country so bad that not only my generation, but my kids' generation will be fixing the problems you created. Thanks for blaming my generation for everything you did wrong. Also, thanks for destroying the sense of morality that this country had for so long, but lost when you came along. Thank you.
I find grumpy, old people just as annoying, if not moreso, than the next person, but not quite like you. Sigh* The more people I meet from my generation, the less I think of us.
Well said. Do not worry, they will die off, but I doubt our generation will be any better.

your to angry for a 17 year old go out and enjoy yourself
You’re making some wild, very rude accusations here. Every generation is equally responsible for the world we live in today! Each gereration has provided us with great things and made many mistakes. Young people have the power, education, technology and potential to change things and improve the situation but instead all they do is complain. In my opinion that is a far bigger mistake than those of previous generations. You/young people can make the difference but you CHOOSE not to. They/you/young people are too lazy to change things. Not everyone in the 60′s took drugs and not all young people are irresponsible spolit brats, generalizations, complaining and accusing people does nothing!
You are entitled to your opinion but try to see things from others point of view as well. Young people are also very rude to the elderly and have a bad habit of thinking the world owes them a living. At leat you have a job, so many young people are content with being drop kicks that sponge of the ‘baby boomers’ that are paying taxes and have worked their asses of for decades.Young people are ruder than any other generation and have lost so many of the manners and good traits of your grandfathers generation. I’m sure you probably think I am a baby boomer myself- you’d be very wrong but that’s not really the issue!
well not all are rude and failures…..some have their own good contribution for that generation..chill out friend because in all generation there are good and bad but it is not fair to actually blame them..we live in this generation so we will not understand the earlier generation…and guess they feel the same of the present generation..
You should read up on the Law of Attraction. You attract the same kind of energy you are sending out so if you are attracting rude, insensitive people, then that is because like attracts like.
I am one of the Boomer generation and I find both happiness and kindness in all age groups, as well as rudeness and unhappiness. What you choose to dwell on is totally up to you.
Happiness is a choice, not a right or something that happens by accident. You attract what you focus on most and I think we can see by your question just what you are dwelling on in your life.
