Apparently, Jim Goad isn't buying into all of this "blame the Boomers" rhetoric. It's about time an old fart stepped up and had his say on the topic.

Hmmm....its been a while.

Hows this supposed to go now?

I call Boomers a bunch of fugging whiny babies trying to assuage guilt and stay relevant and then the Boomers come along and say I have a lot to learn about hard work and five cent candy bars?

Some back and forth ensues....someone mentions Jews and Blacks.......how white and prosperous Montana is...


We all reinforce the stereotypes and call it a day.

Yes?

I'm really not much on debates,....but I'd *really* like to see Vox Day debate Jim Goad on all of this "blame the Boomers" stuff.

I don't feel the least bit guilty.

And yes, it was hard work to get enough for a 5 cent, three quarter pound Baby Ruth bar. I had to pedal a fricken' 50 pound bicycle that looked like an F-86 at least half a block to collect three soda bottles from vacant lots at 2 cents deposit each to get 6 cents. (Fortunately in those days there were vacant lots on every block and they were all strewn ankle deep with empty soda bottles). That penny left over went into a school sponsored savings account which has grown into a 3.9 million dollar nest egg, and thank God it did since Medicare and Social Security don't cover everything.

If you were a Boomer you'd realize that we're immune to guilt and couldn't care less about being relevant to anybody under 60.

To us,...the young people are just a bunch of whiny asses who missed it,...doesn't understand what they missed,..but they think it's the old people's fault that they did.

We don't really give a schitt about the society of the new millennia. It's not ours and we wouldn't have it if you tried to give it to us.

Lets see i was born in 1963.
That puts me on the tail end of the boomer generation.
I dont feel one bit guilty about younger generations blaming mine for
their bullschitt and lack of drive as a whole ( not all) to do a fugging thing.
Raised up my kids to be successful and independent.
Did my little part for this nation.
Any of these whiney wanna point a finger fuggwads wanna talk to me about how fugged up my generation is, and how it is the cause of their woes currently.
Can come find my dikhead azz at either yellow creek or on slumlords place this saturday morning.
( if they can get their non pussy getting video game playing till 417 am azz up)
I will be the guy with the CVA .45 Kodiak Pro Mag sitting on a hunting stool by a tree.
And i will see you way way way before you ever see me...



Blame Whitey who worked one way or the other and paid taxes his entire life for your woes.......
