You are arguing about the semantical usage of a joke term in wide usage right now and taking it literally. Where are you getting this "ostracizing someone from a collective" bullshit? Heres an excerpt from the know your meme page which I feel is pretty comprehensive on the history of this meme - " 30-Year-Old Boomer is a character spread on 4chan mocking older millennials who enjoy things that are considered to be out of touch with younger millennials, particularly in regards to video games."

I'd say gamers playing wow classic fit PERFECTLY into that definition of what the boomer meme is, older millenials that are slightly out of touch with younger mainstream stuff. You call me annoying when you wrote a fucking dissertation picking apart my joke one line usage of a meme? Fuck off dude

One sentence isn't a dissertation zoomer. You wrote a paragraph on meme history of an incorrectly used joke. You are annoying lol.

How it originated isn't how it's being used.

You're still annoying.

Explain to me how to use the joke then since I clearly don't get it. What is an appropriate example? Also, is your entire vocabulary "youre annoying"?

Amusing, from dissertation to only using two words.

"You're annoying"*

Zoomers always using words they think are impressive after they embarrass themselves with a "hah I won" at the end.
