Boomers: My generation! My generation!
GenX: Hey dad, what you doing?
Boomers: Talkin’ ‘bout my generation things my parents said to me…
GenX: What sort of things?
Boomers: Awful, cold things.
GenX: Such as?
Boomers: Er … um … tax the rich to build a welfare state?
GenX: And?
Boomers: Something about minorities …
GenX: Go on…
Boomers: I think it was “don’t put minorities in death camps”
GenX; You know you’re kind of an asshole?
Millennials: Oh hey dad, big bro. Wassup?
Boomers: Your brother was just leaving.
GenX: Well I do need to go get some overtime. My mortgage is fucking killing me and apparently someone ran away with my pension fund.
GenX: Asshole
Millennials: Wow. What was that about?
Boomers: Oh, music tastes. Anyway, let’s go into the city. There’s a matching band and something I want to talk to you about.

Boomers: Cool band! Anyway, in the unlikely event that I die soon after plundering the healthcare system your grandparents built and laying waste to the environment, will you defeat the plans that they, and by they, I mean “I” have made? I know things are shit and it’s my fault, but I can’t be arsed to clean up after myself and the beach bar is open …
Millennials: My older brother was right. You are an asshole.
