    does anyone else feel like they are watching people become "boomery" in real time? like, i see people's hornery old-age coming out more and more as the days go by. i am not singling anyone out here... i am about to turn 50, ffs... i am sure i fit the term "boomery" in some regard. if you feel this is related-to or directed-at you, there is probably a reason for that. ;)

    lol.. this is the bbs world.. we are all already boomers, or well on our way, but most of this type of conversation was going on when we were kids back in the 90's too :) A lot of us just have not "Evolved" beyond that :-)

    i mean, technically boomers were the generation before us... i just see more and more of us acting more like them. i think a lot of that "this kind of conversation was happening back in the 90s" thing was the literal boomers. i remember being asked to call into a radio show by a "tech talk" type of guy... we were talking about viruses, hacking, all of the things a lot of us were doing back then, and an older man called in.

    during his call-in and the discussion with myself, the host, and the man he said, "i think you should be publicly maimed", based on what he was hearing us talk about. he had no concept of what the point of hacking or our discussion was.

    anyway this is already getting long. during that call there was mention of his handle... and low-and-behold, i started noticing posts of his after seeing his name. a lot of the things i see people posting now are pretty much the same things he was posting then.

    i guess i just dont understand how so many people never rose above that type of thinking...or how so many people fall into it as they age.

    Welcome!

    thanks much!

    Oh I know what "boomer" means, and I know that I am definitely GenX. That is why I said "boomery" to draw a parallel to how some people act nowadays -- in direct relation to how our parents acted as those of us who were born to boomers.

    A lot of the older people on BBSes back when I was a kid had these same kinds of "troll-esque" discussions. I just don't understand the point of some of it. I always had a lot of fun with it.

    We are living in rough, shitty times. During covid the whole world pretty much went crazy. I could go on for a long time about whats wrong with the world and i don't even pay attention to the news most of the time. of course people are going to be grumpy. if you're not grumpy, you're dumb. Our society is pretty much a prison.

    regarding that boomer crack, I think that's just ageism. 'boomers' complain about stuff but that's just because when they were at their peak things weren't as shitty as they are now. that's just normal.

    what do you mean by troll? A troll isn't someone who argues.
    A troll is someone who is fake and says things to get a rise out of people. They bait people to just cause drama.

    At the very beginning of COVID, I actually noticed people being nicer to others. Like the folks who drove by a house up the street to wave and wish a kid Happy Birthday, or the teachers who paraded through neighborhoods to
    wish their students a happy summer break. It was all done with distancing
    but was really nice.

    There was other stuff like that in other places that was on the news that
    gave you a sense that we were treating others well.

    Then came Summer and people in some areas went nuts.

    Our society is pretty much a prison.

    For those same areas that went nuts, it probably is.

    They probably didn't call it anything because they weren't obsessed with labels other than commie and homo.

    One thing that is new to me is apparently according to wikipedia the generation before boomers were called 'the silent generation'. 99% of the books referenced are pretty new, though.

    I'm not sure if I heard that in school, and I took many college history courses.

Like the folks who drove by a house up the street to wave and wish a kid Happy Birthday, or the teachers who paraded through neighborhoods to wish their students a happy summer break. It was all done with distancing but was really nice.

    i saw people standing on their doorsteps banging pots and pans. that stuff seemed kinda crazy. I know a person that was doing that. People felt helpless so they needed something to do.

    There was other stuff like that in other places that was on the news that gave you a sense that we were treating others well.

    Then came Summer and people in some areas went nuts.

    During covid i saw things i never saw in my entire life. My car was broken into for the first time. People were riotting in my city.

    I drove home from work and i saw a car on fire and the flames were like 20 feet in the air. it was like madmax. There was a paper dispenser like one from target or something and it was sitting in the front lawn. it had a full roll of paper in it. Target is about 10 mins away. Why is it in my front yard?

    I was going to board up my windows. I was told to take down my american flags outside. People were putting up black lives matter signs so their houses didn't get vandalized or burnt down. People were standing in the middle of highways and making people late for work. I knew 3 people who killed themselves and atleast 5 other people who died of covid.

    Honestly I think we need a revolution and we need to tear out and replace our govt. people need to be held accountable. They do NOT have our best intrests in mind.

    You don't joke. You Bully people. and when that don't work you go even further and try to dig up personal information on them and try to exloit that.

    There is a big difference between joking and what you do.. There has to be more to life then this?? I mean I've known of you doing this shit since the early 2000's and I'm sure you have been at it since you first began. When are you going to rise above it man?

    It's like schoolyard bullying. I'd expect that kind of behavior from middle school kids & younger, and it's sad to see a grown adult behave this way. When I see an adult behave that way, I want to just roll my eyes and move on. If it's an attempt at humor, it's not funny.

    I think it is new. The Baby Boom was a big deal so that generation got a
    name, then later psychologists and sociologists decided to start naming the other generations, probably so they could assign specific issues/problems
    to them.

    What is krad?

    urbandictionary lists it, but their definition seems pretty lame. "really

    Follow the stocks they invest in. Remember that dude
    created that script or whatever that invests in whatever nancy pelosis invests
    in.

    That'd be a good script to have. They hard-core insider trade.




    What app automatically buys Nancy Pelosi stocks?
    Autopilot enables you to mimic the publicly disclosed trades of politicians including:
    Nancy Pelosi, a House Representative from California and former Speaker of the House.
    Dan Crenshaw, a House Representative from Texas.
    Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a House Representative from Florida.

    BBSing in the 80s, for some reason I don't know, it was considered cool to put 'k' in front of words, like k-rad, or replace 'c' with 'k' as in "kool". "rad" is short for radical (good) of course, so k-rad is just extra good.

    violence is usually the last thing people restort to. when you have no brains and no class that's the first thing they go to; they have nothing else.

    look into how amazon survived in the 2000's. it's pretty interesting. their cfo warned jeff that there here bad times coming. They sold convertable bonds to foreign investors to get a big chunk of money to weather it out. It looked bad on paper but got them the real cash they needed.

    There's a lot of misinformation out there now and from that period. bloomberg said it was done in 2000 to help expand and invest in other online companies.
    It was to survive.

    martha stewart went to prison for insider trading.

    "One of the most popular features is the Pelosi Tracker, which allows users to copy the top ten stock picks made by Nancy Pelosi's husband, Paul. Your portfolio buys when he buys and sells when he sells-as soon as she reports the trades, within the forty-five days required by law. The tracker was up forty-five per cent last year. (A spokesman for Pelosi said that she doesn't own any stocks and isn't involved in any of her husband's transactions.) Other portfolios offered by Autopilot: Buffett (up ten per cent), Bill Ackman (up eighteen), and Representative Dan Crenshaw, of Texas (up forty-one)."

    More correct than violence? If that is the case you are part of the problem

    Being unkind is increasingly being accepted as a social norm.

    I am not certain that everyone is so accepting of it. It seems to be to be
    a fringe but rather loud group, and also a whole lot of politicians.

    The politicians have been that way, to various degrees, for 30 or more years now, though.

    whatever, she did it. they dismissed the charge.
    it's all related.
    "
    Following a six-week trial in early 2004, Stewart was found guilty of conspiracy, obstruction and two counts of lying to federal investigators. However, the most serious criminal charge against her - securities fraud - was previously dismissed by the judge."
