Magnitogorsk. posted:Well yeah you obviously move once. If you have the misfortune of being born in a shithole like chicago or california you move to a normal place where you can buy a house and send your kids to schools without fearing for their safety Giving free desperate handies to boomers by joining in on youth bashing is just about the dumbest strategy a person could choose, since no generation is likely to give you absolutely nothing in return for it more than them. Like they're probably not even going to give you the dignity of cumming on your little weasel hands and will insult your handjob technique while you do it. What I'm getting at is your avatar suits you. Grape fucked around with this message at 20:27 on Apr 25, 2019 |

Boomers are the reason we have Parental Advisory stickers on CDs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parents_Music_Resource_Center Oh and um......buying CDs. Specially reissues like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84L7wRSg2Vk and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EipdAjhImrc

Bonzo posted:Boomers are the reason we have Parental Advisory stickers on CDs. I feel like the truest Boomer music isn't 60's stuff, but instead banal bro-rock and saccharine harmony laden pap from the 70's. Like Three Dog Night and Captain & Tennille. The stuff that wasn't their youth so much as their 20's and early 30's. When they lost what little quality they had and truly began to become the beasts we know.

There are two types of boomers, The early ones who are the 60's people and the second group who are the people who were 20 in the 80's and yeah that 70's stuff is what they like, but they don't like genre's or even bands; it's just a never ending deluge of songs that only exist on the radio that nobody knows the name of because Djs never tell you. So a lot of Fleetwood mac and the Eagles with some of carol king's Tapestry throw in.

Most of the "dad rock" went over better in the midwest flyover states. You'd never see the New York Dolls playing Boise but you better believe Foghat was there every 9 months.

You Are A Elf posted:Was talking with a Boomer at work about a movie that had Jane Fonda in it. Look at this loving loser who deprived himself of Barbarella. Iron Crowned posted:What even is the point of these anyway? It's not like I know who your dumbass kid was, let alone why dedicate your entire car to them? I once saw a car that had the ultimate dead kid sticker. It was this tiny purple Honda that was rusting to poo poo and in addition to some oversized "RIP [dead kid]" decals, the entire hood of the car was covered by a massive sticker that was a picture of his face. Dead people stickers are sad, weird, and tacky as gently caress. I don't even think it's specific to boomers. When I was in high school people wore dead kid t-shirts too, that was sort of the start of when people started doing the stickers on their cars. mazzi Chart Czar posted:There are two types of boomers, The early ones who are the 60's people and the second group who are the people who were 20 in the 80's All this talk about lovely dad rock bands and not a one of you mentioned Journey or Boston.

Remember that whole thing about playing music backwards to find hidden messages? Occasionally a band would put something like that on their record for kicks, but there was a whole movement that proclaimed that there were devil messages and your brain is so advanced that it can play the music backward in your head as you listen to it normally and still get infected by the devil messages.

Peanut Butter posted:Truth. I can't handle Styx man, it's too much. That super busy and cluttered approach so many musicians took during the 70s/ early 80s sounds like absolute poo poo tbh. And I think the late 70's/early 80's was the golden age of rock music.... except very fuckin' little of that was being made in the US, and got very little attention. The Boomers here really established a monopoly on rock music press and attention that they STILL hold today (Rolling Stone being the example) and so aside from some blips on the radar, very little after like 1973 or so gets huge attention, and what does is lovely dad rock or token Gen X/New Wave/Punk bands. British Boomers clearly suck horribly, but I don't think the UK has had to deal with this particular issue.

As far as boomer music goes, Jimmy Buffett is king. If you ever want to be the Pied Piper of the boomers, you'll have to play Jimmy Buffett songs and they'll follow you to their doom.

Boomers love skittering into warm, dark places to lay a clutch of eggs. They're attracted to the carbon dioxide you exhale during sleep, so that's why their bites tend to cluster around your mouth.

Boomers love having HUGE key-rings full of 500 different keys jangling from the clip on the belt loop of their relaxed-fit Wrangler jeans like they're a 1930s prison officer at San Quentin. Most of the keys most likely don't even open any locks anymore as said Boomer had changed locks in the '70s and '80s, but they keep the key on the key-ring "just in case I need it." That same belt on their relaxed-fit Wrangler jeans also sports a carrying case for their Consumer Cellular phone.

I went to a church youth group thing and they talked about this and played a bunch of "examples" of it. It didn't pass the sniff test for my 9 year old self, but these grown adults honestly believed this warbly nonsense was going to convince us kids to worship satan and smoke marijuana.

Jimmy Buffett just introduced Jimmy Buffett(R) branded Coral Reefer weed since Florida made it legal. Boomers love to say weed is bad for you, but it's definitely okay for me, even Jimmy Buffett says so!
