Boomer opinions:

  • Stop being so loud.
  • Get off my lawn and please leave me alone.
  • I work in tech, but sometimes tech is added to things needlessly. I just want my washing machine to be a washing machine. I'm tired of being the product.
  • Silicon valley's "disruptors" are usually full of shit. The vast majority of the time: it ain't broke, don't fix it.
  • Don't tell me what to do with my land if you're not willing to pay my taxes (or if you don't have good ecological reasons). I'll paint my shudders whatever color I want to.
  • Bring back the damn knobs, buttons, and switches in my car. I don't need more touchscreens.

On the other hand...

  • I recognize that the way I feel and some of the opinions I have are based on a context I grew up with that may no longer exist - or at least it may not exist in the form it once did. I recognize how I see things may die with me and my peers, and that's ok. It's a sad truth, but truth, nonetheless.
