Reply #242: I didn't take it personally until the statement that the Boomers [View All]

are "milking a whole decade"

Up in your first post.

That was sarcastic and contemptuous and totally uncalled for.


And it doesn't jibe with what you're saying now, that it's all the fault, mostly of the media.

The story keeps changing

First it was hearing it constantly from your parents.

Then it's us...the whole generation.

Then it's the media that's at fault.


Like I have pointed out below, there are many things you should be thankful for, and if it means having to be assaulted to the point of "obnoxiousness" by the 60s and Boomers as "payment", then that's the way it is. It's a small price, I think, for being able to do a lot of the things you CAN do today.


See, you dug your own hole by not merely stating that you heard it all the time while growing up...that, to me, would have been understandable. Instead, you had to sit and mock Boomers for "milking a whole decade".

That sucked.
