Ah the misguided enthusiasm of youth.

You'll grow up, don't worry.

It will amaze you how much smarter your "boomer" parents get as you get older.

This crosses into personal attack. Please don't do that, regardless of what someone else posted.

I'm sure you meant it in an avuncular way, but that doesn't translate so well on the internet.

No, that's not a personal attack. "Ok Boomer" is personal attack in a lot of places, but I guess not here...

It's banter, it's common on the internet, it's been common on the internet for decades.

I've chided the other commenter for dropping the "Ok boomer" trope here. It's definitely not ok.
