An example of how some boomers are so bad was a post I read (not here of course) from some woman who was whining about her 20-something daughter. She was upset that she was always at odds with her daughter and that if it kept up, her daughter might not be around to take care of her in a few years.
I'd like to express my appreciation to the Gen-X and Gen-Y people who are paying for my retirement. It is much appreciated. I imagine that as I sit here in leisure, playing on FR, and going to my volunteer work, that you all are slaving away on the job. Well, thanks again.
I was born in Dec 1964. So I'm an "almost Gen Xer".
And yes the gubberment will raise your taxes to pay for my retirement unless something happens to stop it.

Where the Ignorant and Angry meet
"... The column was referenced on an Internet message board.
If you're ever wondering where all the humorless people are, they are writing on the Internet. Well over a hundred responded. Dozens e-mailed me.
...Seems to me you can argue the column wasn't funny. You can argue it was badly written, or a waste of time. No problem. You can even fail to get the joke.
But why the anger? Why the hostility? Why the hatred?
Ignorant AND angry is no way to go through life, folks."
I hope these idiots didn't claim to represent Freepers.
