    I got that a while back talking about old video games. “Eww you played DOS games? What a boomer”

    No, no that makes me mad. I was learning to navigate the DOS shell to set up Duke Nukem (skills I still use at my job today) while my boomer parents yelled at me to stop wasting my life on the computer and come in the living room to watch another six hours of Bonanza reruns.

    That’s the difference. Bah, burns me up
