Review by a Millennial : The boomerisms used in this book were mostly a fail. There were a few lines which were good advice to which saying "Ok, boomer" was being just ignorant and plain rude. Most of the jokes didn't land well. What's wrong with reading Reader's digest and newspapers? xD In this digital age, for people who have started craving the analog life away from the all the digital bombardment, this book might give you a few pointers on the same. I neither entirely agreed nor disagreed wit Review by a Millennial : The boomerisms used in this book were mostly a fail.

Not even a book. Stupid.

Disclosure: This reviewer is a millennial. The structure of this book is one page with a word or sentence describing a "boomer" thing, followed by one page that just says "OK, BOOMER" ... repeated ~60 times. To pull off this layout well, the 'boomerisms' have to be solid and a lot of these fell flat. I laughed at a few, but it felt like some ideas were reused in this short volume. On the plus side, this book will only take you two minutes to read (literally). Disclosure: This reviewer is a millennial.

While I think the criticism of Boomers as conspiracy-theory obsessed is exaggerated, I must say that our generation has always had a healthy amount of skepticism—which goes as far back as the early 1960s—especially when it comes to the government. Which is in sharp contrast to the youth of today, which seems to have no problem with the government controlling every aspect of their lives. I mention it because it seems to be the common theme that runs through all these Boomer-bashing books.

Funny and witty. Would make a nice fun gift to someone that can relate to those incidents for "boomers." While I'm not a boomer I can definitely relate to some of those quotes LOL. Funny and witty.

Thank You Tiller Press for a Copy of this book to review! At first this sounded like I would really enjoy this short book, but I was mistaken. Maybe it would be funny to some but for me it just wasn't funny. I understood where the author was going with it and I maybe smiled on one of them but it just wasn't what I hoped it would be. Some of them really didn't even make sense. I hope someone else enjoys this book but for me it was miss. Thank You Tiller Press for a Copy of this book to review!
