I (46) was jokingly called a boomer by a 25ish at work and quitely told her I am GenX. Her reply was whats that? (An answer hilariously apt in a meta way) and she told me it to her it meant person with outdated opnion.

The opinion was me not wanting to use AI but rely on my own knowledge in an area I quite frankly am close to being an expert in. No dunning Kruger expert either.

And I am born august 79 so neither really gen x or millennial

Yes, but that does require the assumption that a person who is standmaxxing does use the term boomer correctly.

You're never too old to practice Standmaxxing™️!

Nono, anon IS a boomer

Nope. A boomer is anybody older than you whom you disagree with, just like millennials are those younger than you who you disagree with and Gen Z are those younger than you who uses a social network you dislike.

Boomer, used as a pejorative term, doesn't mean someone born between 1946 and 1964. It never has.

It's always been a dismissive term for an older person with outdated ideas. Every young generation has one.

An entertaining thing to do is to give a *-maxxing individual additional opportunities to *. Then, if they do not take advantage of it, claim they are only *-averaging.

Anyway, I posted this zero seconds ago and I don't see a reply yet.

I saw some graffiti that simply read "DEATHMAXXING?" and I still think about that pretty regularly
