Okay, boomer…you know I couldn’t resist saying that!
It is kind of funny that Baby Boomers seem to be so irritated when younger folks say that, though, isn’t it?
The truth is that every generation thinks that the ones that came before them and after them are…not up to snuff, shall we say. And that’s really on display during these times where everyone is on social media sharing every single thought that pops into their heads.
You can imagine how that could result in a whole lot of arguments between Boomers, Millennials, Gen X’ers, and Gen Z’ers…
At any rate, here are some funny tweets comparing these different generations.
Can’t we all just get along, people?!?!
1. This sums it up.
And that’s comedy, people!
boomers: i hate my wife
millennials: i hate my life
gen z: beesechurger— madimoiselle ♡ (@drivingmemadi) July 26, 2020
2. Here’s another dose for you.
Hey, I laughed, okay?

3. Yeah, that’s pretty impressive.
Hammer Time was pretty cool, though…

4. Does this look accurate to you?
I think we all know the answer to that question…
Silent Gen: Can you show me how to work this iPhone?
Boomers: Can you show me how to ruin everything?
Gen X: Can you show me how to make a meme?
Millennials: Can you show me how to buy a house?
Gen Z: Can you show me how to use a hammer?

5. Yeah, this whole thing is really weird to me.
You’re watching other people play video games?
gaming boomers: plays video games
gaming millennials: plays video games they hate
gaming gen z: watches streams of someone playing a game they hate on the smart fridge while they film it for tiktok

However, avocados are quite delicious.
Forms of teenage rebellion by era:
Boomers: hippy culture, selfishness

9. Well, that escalated quickly.
Okay, Boomer. I had to say it one more time before it gets officially banned.
Boomers: "Millenials and gen z are snowflakes who get offended by ANYTHING"
Gen z: "OK boomer"

11. Well, I guess Gen Z has done one thing right so far.
That’s very innovative!
boomers: work harder
millennials: play smarter
gen z: baja blast condoms— floptimus prime ribᵀᴹ (@FireBeets) August 18, 2020
12. This is definitely on point.
What a crazy world we live in…
generations dining:
boomers: doesn’t make eye contact, leaves $1 tip, leaves a mess
gen x: says their pleases and thank yous, $5 tip and they MIGHT stack their cups
millennials: smiles, asks how their day is going, leaves a good ass tip
gen z: will literally die for the staff— bonk (@poketrainermeg) August 21, 2020
