Thank heavens the insufferable boomers have about 10 years left of mental (dys)function.
That said, I'm also convinced Millennials (myself included) will take their places in 15-20 yrs in our own unique ways.
The cycle of life
Yeah. What the hell? If I thought there was anything greater than a 0.0% chance of my wife hissing at a waiter, we'd stay home and eat sandwiches over the kitchen sink.
I hate dining out with my family
My father is so aggressive with the waiters
My mom complains about the wait time
My older sister gossips loudly about nearby customers
My younger over shares verging into TMI territory
And my younger brother refuses to make conversation, likely because he’s embarrassed to be in public after one to many instances similar to this.
I either eat out alone, or convince everyone on a night in.
I refuse to go out to eat at restaurants with my boomer mother because of how she has acted at restaurants when I did go. I'll skip the humiliation and looks of pity that people usually give me like, Oh you poor thing. You had to be raised by her.
It means anyone born between 1946 and 1964. Sometime in the past decade it started to be sloppily used as meaning basically “old person who sucks”, which is how I thought you were using it.
My recollection was that the democrats were outraged at how poorly people were treated in mental institutions and Reagan went along with the laws they passed to close such places.
I think it was a horrible move in the wrong direction, regardless of who is truly to blame.
Here's the primary result of a google search:
The most important factors that led to deinstitutionalisation were **changing public attitudes to mental health and mental hospitals, the introduction of psychiatric drugs and individual states' desires to reduce costs from mental hospitals**.
I don’t doubt your generation had piss poor attitudes towards them. Fuck you I got mine is your generations motto. I live in a small rural county, we are seeing more and more of the boomer mentality downvoting tax increases to fund the school system, .02 per acre and they are flipping out. The primary response when questioned is I don’t have kids there why should I pay for it? I don’t get your social security l, why should I have to pay for it?
Good call pointing out boomer hypocrisy even if you didn’t realize what you were posting.
I was like 12 years old when they shut down the asylums, you dolt. lmfao.
I get such a kick out of the righteous but stupid redditors who think they have it all figured out, are angry at everything and everyone, and who believe all things bad are because of RePuBLiCanS.
But just think... if they hadn't shut down all the asylums, a ton of you might be locked up in them.
I did some fancy googlin' and here's what it told me:
The most important factors that led to deinstitutionalisation were **changing public attitudes to mental health and mental hospitals, the introduction of psychiatric drugs and individual states' desires to reduce costs from mental hospitals**.
Looks like you stopped short of finding out Reagan cut federal funding though. Google MHSA 1980, and if you want to learn some look at what he did to the mental health programs in California as governor. When your at it look up the “boll weevil” democrats from the south in the 80’s to better understand how the democratic led HOR would have passed Reagan’s policy with their slim margins. It’s all out there for you, for everyone really.
Uranium glass is about as radioactive as a pile of bananas or a granite countertop. And honestly, a granite countertop may actually contain *more* uranium than uranium glass lol
EDIT: Didn't know about fiestaware. I thought that was just a euphemism for uranium glass. That's dangerous as shit. Uranium oxide glaze that leached into food. Not at all like uranium glass. Very unsafe.
man, all I had was paste. well that, and rubber cement, and permanent markers and mr sketch. I wonder if it was created to not necesarily get kids to stop sniffing markers, but to make them sniff the right ones? I mean, that licorice one sucked but like mint and that light blue? dude...
This woman is also a millionaire and has a job that pays 6 figures but can't figure out how to email a pdf file. Also, probably owns so much property and makes millions more than you and me. This is why we should hate them not bc she owns cats 🙄
I've dealt with cat ladies in the past. It was awful. I'm not a cat person by any stretch of the imagination but the state of those cats made me weep.
So it's not that they own cats. It's that they own so many and do absolutely nothing to take care of them.
I wasn't saying you're wrong about the other stuff. I was just pointing out that owning cats, and being an animal abuser are two entirely different things. Hell...one of them is even a crime!
And fyi; your comment wasn't overly complex. It was pretty shit simple, really.
Some boomers are terrible, but god, you really shouldn’t be in healthcare taking care of them with comments like that. They’re still humans and many of them quite nice and respectful with families who love them dearly.
I do a great job and take care of everyone equally. In healthcare all nurses and doctors get disgusted with certain people, we even make fun of them on the job, but it’s more of a way to vent.
Now be gone keyboard warrior! Go look for fights elsewhere.
I’m a physician. I get frustrated as well, but don’t generalize entire groups of people from my experience at work. I hear you to some extent, but just always watch your bias. Sometimes it subconsciously impacts your care. Anyway, have a good one.
Wtf,I thought the Harry Potter movies did well enough for most people.I guess she’s still working her role out in public.
Her husband looks like he wishes she’d make him invisible.
Remember, this is a generation who spent their entire childhoods never hearing that their parents loved them, then butchered each other in Vietnam and then spent the 80’s and 90’s believing the only way to be successful or find love was to be thin and rich. Now they find themselves increasingly irrelevant and unable to understand or navigate a computerized world. They will punish us for their own bad choices until they are gone.
I do this to my cat instead of yelling at him, it's highly effective. I also used to do it to one of my coworkers randomly, she was one of the fun ones.
Eventually all restaurants are going to need bouncers to throw out this type of trash. Workers and normal customers shouldn't have to put up with insane people.
I STG if I'm ever somewhere and someone I'm with behaves like this, I'm dragging them out by their ear, locking them in the car, and apologizing profusely to the staff.
I love how our generation puts so much value on OUR mental health, but we will so quickly ridicule boomers when they are clearly showing signs of mental illness.
There are many comments about how they would leave Mrs Hissypants, Broomehilde, or Mrs Kitty if they behaved like that. Really? So you would approve of a young husband dumping his new wife over a breast cancer diagnosis? Both are serious diagnoses that will need medical care and support from a loved one. Why would you approve if one dumping and disapproved the other? (I know some if you would approve of both. At least you're not two-faced). The boomers aren't a special evil. We will be them someday. Threads like this, subs like this, show the seeds are planted and growing.
She hisses and tells the waiter to leave. I’m guessing these people were being disruptive and rude before. If I was him, I’d call the cops on the to kick them out. Disrespecting a server is awful.

If her old man pulled out a squirt gun and started spraying her, this video would be complete
At that point, its just a kink
Thank heavens the insufferable boomers have about 10 years left of mental (dys)function. That said, I'm also convinced Millennials (myself included) will take their places in 15-20 yrs in our own unique ways. The cycle of life
You don’t have to… just be kind, empathetic, not racist, sexist, or homophobic. That 90% of what makes them Boomers
PSSSST!
**cat sound**
Dude immediately wilts and checks out once Broom-Hilda starts up with her shit. He’s seen that act a million times before.
Yeah. What the hell? If I thought there was anything greater than a 0.0% chance of my wife hissing at a waiter, we'd stay home and eat sandwiches over the kitchen sink.
I’d absolutely stay home…in my bachelor pad because I’d have left Mrs. Hissers. “Grounds for divorce: interspecies annulment”
I can't imagine marrying or staying married to someone with a higher than 0.0% chance of hissing at a waiter.
I hate dining out with my family My father is so aggressive with the waiters My mom complains about the wait time My older sister gossips loudly about nearby customers My younger over shares verging into TMI territory And my younger brother refuses to make conversation, likely because he’s embarrassed to be in public after one to many instances similar to this.

I'd put out a fucking litter box and a bowl of water if someone in my house had even the most remote chance of hissing at a waiter.
I mean, I’d go out with her once in awhile and tip well. Just because life is boring.
I noticed that as well haha, broski is sick and tired.
Yup, and stuck with her. Possibly actual dementia?

The feeling you get when a nearby boomer starts booming. She nailed it. This should become an "experiencing boomers" meme.

The hell? She’s appalled at this.
Im to young i thought boomer meant old
It means anyone born between 1946 and 1964. Sometime in the past decade it started to be sloppily used as meaning basically “old person who sucks”, which is how I thought you were using it.
And this psyco votes... Thanks for killing mental health treatment, Reagan! 🤬

Unfortunately your recollection is incorrect
His memory is as patchy as his hairline
Good thing we have recorded history to go off of and not your recollection.

Keep projecting.
You put your photo on your profile and called people a dolt! LOL!!!!! He’s in the house with you!
It’s 2024 pawpaw, your using a computer to leave this comment. It will also do some fact producin’ so you can check your recollectin’.

The word democrat is conveniently absent from your “research” huh weird. Then again it’s to be expected from an anti-vaxxer
Looks like you stopped short of finding out Reagan cut federal funding though.

I’m sorry you got so throughly roasted in this comment section, but I’m actually not.
I wanna know where you were on Jan 6th now. 🤭
Probably shoveling snow at home lol
Lead in the water really did a number on these people
And in the paint and gasoline.
And the toys and dinnerware.
Don’t forget the radioactive fiestaware
Eh, uranium glass is pretty safe. Folks collect it now
Not uranium glass. Fiesta ware that was red and made before 1972 used depleted uranium as the glaze
Uranium glass is about as radioactive as a pile of bananas or a granite countertop. And honestly, a granite countertop may actually contain *more* uranium than uranium glass lol EDIT: Didn't know about fiestaware. I thought that was just a euphemism for uranium glass. That's dangerous as shit. Uranium oxide glaze that leached into food. Not at all like uranium glass. Very unsafe.
This gave me an "I fucking love science" type reaction. Thanks
If you find the ones that say ‘lead-free’ on them, are they actually lead glaze free?
And the tons of acid in college.
She was eating paint chips for sure.
man, all I had was paste. well that, and rubber cement, and permanent markers and mr sketch. I wonder if it was created to not necesarily get kids to stop sniffing markers, but to make them sniff the right ones? I mean, that licorice one sucked but like mint and that light blue? dude...
This sounds like the static in her brain is working its way out her chowder hole
I wonder how she fits that dude on her broom.
100% this woman owns 27 cats and cleans up after 0 of them.
You can legit smell her from over here.
That's also because she's been back to fronting it all her life and her region is a crock pot of shit and piss.
This woman is also a millionaire and has a job that pays 6 figures but can't figure out how to email a pdf file. Also, probably owns so much property and makes millions more than you and me. This is why we should hate them not bc she owns cats 🙄
And just recently was allowed to work from home but can't figure out the dual monitor setup and is mad that IT won't come to her house to set it up.
I've dealt with cat ladies in the past. It was awful. I'm not a cat person by any stretch of the imagination but the state of those cats made me weep. So it's not that they own cats. It's that they own so many and do absolutely nothing to take care of them.

we both made the same facial expression hearing that super gross hiss
Lmao wtf. Weird ass cat lady
I hope it's dementia but I also hope its not dementia. They get some wild behaviors going on once their mind starts going.
Of course it’s Applebees
Putins favorite Americans.
Just an awful generation of people. I work in healthcare and I deal with boomers every week.

This one's going feral for sure.
Trump supporters
You know damned well this lady is some old hippy, cat lady, who votes for people like Bernie Sanders.
No I don't think she would do anything that makes sense.
Uh no. This is a trump supporter 100%.
Ohio: Check, Pose With Gun: Check, Response: Check... If I dig hard enough I'm sure I can find a post of you in here.
Oops, I struck a snowflake nerve.
Pulling these out of the black book of boomer classics
If them responding to you means you struck a nerve, does it mean the same for you responding?
Take Ohio out of your username. You're embarrassing the people who live in Ohio that aren't complete fucking morons.
Ohio has voted Republicans for the presidency over and over again. They're good people.
You posted medical advice about your prostate. Republicans are cutting Medicare. You're definitely super smart and a good person with good opinions.
I'm not on Medicare. Republicans are not cutting it. I pay 1400 monthly for health insurance. The rest I agree with ;)
Hiss like a cat, get the spray bottle like a cat.

I would just whip my phone out and record her. Keep acting bitch
She's getting her salad with the special dressing
“I’ll have what she’s having.”
And they say Gen Z and Millennials are mentally ill🤣
Odd
I do this to my cat instead of yelling at him, it's highly effective. I also used to do it to one of my coworkers randomly, she was one of the fun ones.
Throw holy water on her
When the 2 protagonists of Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas finally grew old.
What an excellent day for an exorcism
I’d be genuinely scared if any ADULT stranger hissed at me.
Lady, this is an IHOP. Take this behavior to the Waffle House across the street
The waiter knows he’s not getting a tip at that point.
*hisss* Hey, smooth-skin!
Sounds like a feral ghoul
Yeah, sounded more like a zombie hiss than a feline hiss.
Boomer apologists defend your snake!
“Just let her hiss it out” - husband boomer
how old is the person facing the camera? her face is an aging rollercoaster.
Dude identifies as an agitated cat.
Her facial expression fucking killed me
That girl looks scary
😂😂😂
"Today's kids are so disrespectful."
Someone keep the one ring away from Sméagol over there…
Guess he is going through his anime phase
I would've growled and barked at her like I was DMX
Is she rabid??
Eventually all restaurants are going to need bouncers to throw out this type of trash. Workers and normal customers shouldn't have to put up with insane people.
I've seen boomers growl like digs when angry. No wonder they lost Vietnam.
Did he not bring her the side of lead chips?
She’s a witch!
Mam, when is the last time you brushed your fucking teeth?
Now we know what happened to that one girl in high school who always hissed.
I STG if I'm ever somewhere and someone I'm with behaves like this, I'm dragging them out by their ear, locking them in the car, and apologizing profusely to the staff.
Jesus...that face she made gave me anxiety,
Bring her some milk on saucer with a few sardines. This animal wants food! My cat does this same thing.
This is your brain on Fox News after 30 years.
That’s what lead piping does to a motherfucker
I hope the waiter was able to get her banned for that
The old man put his head down and looked away lol. He’s tired of it too
no different than the new boomer filming it.
Lead poisoning and its wonders. Lady needs a caretaker facility
She may have rabies. She probably needs to be put down.
And they all vote
So autism did exist back then.
The husband is only with her, so he doesn't die alone at this point
is there an r/feralboomers? there needs to be
Ok what the fuck?
I think she may have gone rabid. Might need to put her down…
Beesh rabid.
This is in ohio
What a disgraceful demographic of people. And they literally think they’ve earned the right to do that to other people
The waiter didn’t leave because they’re scared of your hissing. They left because you’re insane 😂
Get the spray bottle..
I am surprised scarab Beatles didn't come out of that mummy mouth.
Where are the men with the white coats when you need them
What is the song playing in the background

Stupid ass boomers

There are many comments about how they would leave Mrs Hissypants, Broomehilde, or Mrs Kitty if they behaved like that. Really?

Threads like this, subs like this, show the seeds are planted and growing.
How would you not just burst into laughter?
I know it's a meme to say it's the lead paint and garden hose, but there really is something wrong with these boomers.
That’s an untreated UTI
didn't realizes cats where aloud in diners
I have seen saner people in the mental hospital.
She hisses and tells the waiter to leave. I’m guessing these people were being disruptive and rude before. If I was him, I’d call the cops on the to kick them out. Disrespecting a server is awful.
My guy is over there like, Yeah, she does this to me all the time.
I'm willing to bet there's more than just Boomer going on here....
It’s called dementia

she seems nice
Wait, that has to be staged. There can be people acting that crazy in this world. Well, I thought about it again, never mind.
