Calling ****** boomer jokes ****** has nothing to do with mood. The jokes just weren't funny, but tell yourself whatever you need to Boomer.

I hope you see the irony in dismissing lame jokes while subsequently replying with “OK Boomer”.... something not only unoriginal, but actually the hottest trend in copypasta Facebook memes.

I've never understood how calling someone a "boomer" is supposed to be an insult lol? What's so bad about being born between 1946-1964?

In this context, Boomer is almost more of a mentality. It just happens to be most prevalent in that generation.

You say it as if Millenials, as a generation, haven't been the subject of great derision for years now. What's so bad about being born between 1980 and 1995?

There's no such thing as a boomer mentality. Plenty of boomers with wide varying ideas/values...

Using "boomer" as an insult is about as useful as using "millennial" as an insult lol. It really doesn't mean anything.

1) I didn't say there "is a Boomer mentality", I said Boomerism is almost more of a mentality".

2) I didn't say all Boomers have it, nor did I say only
Boomers have it.

A: Because high school ain't allowed to play middle school.

It's "won't", not "want". The difference between a UAB degree and a USM degree.

Even with "won't" in place of "want", the joke was ******* lame.

Bama(FBS) want/won't play UAB(FBS) because "high school ain't allowed to play middle school".

Setting aside that Bama has played a FCS school every year for more than a decade and has played at least one FCS/G5/non-AQ every year going back to the 1A/1AA split, the really hilarious part is that the joke was made by a USM fan, who is in the same conference as the team he's calling a "middle school".

There’s a difference between being right, and being that guy who is right. You’ve gone beyond even the latter. It would probably be best for you to just find another thread to post in. Or not *shrug*...it’s your rep as a poster on this board. If you want to be seen as insufferable, that’s on you.

For whatever it’s worth, you and I are pretty much on the same page regarding cut-and-paste jokes and poor spelling and grammar when taking shots at other schools. Just as you can choose to be insufferable to the point of insulting them, they can choose to post those things.

IMHO, it’s reason number one why you don’t post a game thread two weeks in advance: It just leads to everyone making a fool of themselves.

I've been a member here for more than a decade longer than you have, I think my "rep as a poster on this board" is long since established.

But thanks for the advice guy...

Your rep as a D bag is growing.

This is actually a good question. The alumni took two busses to Tennessee. I believe a few hundred fans arrived separately for the Tennessee-UAB Game.
The Alabama - LSU game will make it almost impossible for UAB fans to go through Tuscaloosa to the USM game. The alumni will not schedule busses because they went to Tennessee last week. I would estimate between 500 to 1,000 fans. I know we are going to leave Birmingham at 7am.

Okay. What is "boomerism" precisely?

"Precisely"? I don't know that Boomerism could be defined precisely, but I'm happy to provide examples:

Boomerism is complaining about other people speaking languages other than English in 'Merica.

Boomerism is calling any MSM outlet they disagree with "FAKE NEWS" but sharing sheer nonsense from outlets like realpatriotnews dot com or Breitbart, Daily Caller, Infowars etc or obviously faked photoshopped tweets photos, basically the instant share of anything that confirms their bias with no thought to fact checking.

Boomerism is calling fact checking fake news.

Boomerism is an odd love of minions in memes.

Boomerism is making ridiculous unsupported claims and insisting those who question those claims are lazy for not "doing their own research" when they ask for citation.

Boomerism is constantly critiquing Millenials/Gen Z for being phone/tech obsessed, until the next time you need help opening a file or getting your camera out of selfie mode.

Boomerism is a strange fascination with writing in cursive, manual transmissions, and rotary phones and talking about how sad it is when millenials can't handle any of that, when most of us are in our thirties now and definitely grew up with all of those still in regular use, it's gen Z and younger that have barely grown up with any of that, but asking a Gen Z to dial a rotary phone would be like asking a Boomer to crank start a model T.

Boomerism is blaming the generation that grew up with participation trophies on us, as if we somehow made that decision as children.

Boomerism is spending the last decade or so blaming everything on millenials and all the industries we're killing(like ****** chain restaurants), calling people snowflakes and asking people if they need a safe space, only to right whiny op eds about "Ok Boomer" or having the sheer audacity to call "Boomer" the ageist equivalent of the N-word.

These are a handful of the top of my head, not any of these are true of all Boomers, none of them are exclusive to Boomers, but Baby Boomers are indeed most likely to engage in these behaviors.

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.
