Meanwhile, boomer entertainment was like watching fred astaire whos prime as in the 40's, in the 1960s.

I saw this awesome clip from dinner with andre last night, its a classic internet meme..

The joke about it in the 2010s was, that back then they complained about "the same things as we do now"...

However in 2025 I have a different take.

They are indeed complaing about livin gin a multi decade age of extreme exess and freedom to do whatever they wanted.

Be a drunk, buy a house, domsetic violence, burried as a great father and hero.

I don't think todays society, and I don't even think in 2010, we were "bored" I think we were desperately trying to grow with the economy. I think we are miserable not bored now.

And I think this clip perfectly encapsulates how the boomer society, had it all, but were still misanthropes.

We are not bored this generation, we're depressed.

Boomers were bored.

That's UNFAIR! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
