“Well, back in my day…” says a twenty-something year old, reminiscing about “the good old days.” While that might sound funny, some people are old souls who might relate to the elderly more than they do with their own peers.
Many young(-ish) people, like yours truly, often find themselves agreeing with people a few generations older than themselves. Just take this post on Threads, for example: one user asked fellow netizens what is something that makes them go “I’m with the boomers on this one,” and many were eager to share, discussing all sorts of issues and situations. You can find them on the list below.

I miss tv seasons with 21-24 episodes every 9 months. This 6-10 episodes every 2 years on streaming platforms is stupid.

It's actually a perfectly good idea to have a simple backyard pitch-in wedding rather than going into debt on an overblown extravaganza
#3
Everyone is responsible for their own well-being; it’s no one else’s job to shield you from potential triggers (also, hate the word “trigger”)

I only want to make one click to get to the link. Don’t give me a link then make me play a game or give you my email address just so I can browse your website. I will leave and not come back.

Tipping culture has gotten out of hand im not tipping at a 100% digital restaurant pay your employees better
#8
my hatred of apps. i should not need a different app for all of my appliances and ordering pizza or whatever
#10
1. I want buttons and knobs to control essentials of my car (radio, A/C, ect.)
2. I don’t need a subscription or even an account to use every functionality that I bought a device for.
3. Older cars are easier to work on
#11
Kids with tablets every single place they go and whenever they’re at home is so freaking wild and I hate it lmao, the boomers know what’s up with that.

Children should be well behaved in restaurants. Yes, you actually can teach them to stay in their seats, bottoms on the cushion and not screaming and running through the booth or climbing under tables. Don't poke the people at the next table:
#14
Basic human interaction skills and sharing public space. “Excuse me, thank you, pardon me, etc.” Stepping to one side on a sidewalk, escalator, or trail. Manners have gone the way of the dodo.
#15
I pay way too much in taxes for our public school to not supply crayons, pencils, and tissues to kids.
#16
People wearing earphones whilst hanging out with their friends. Like, how important is that music that you've got to listen it in place of listening to your friends
#17
I paid for a computer with a hard drive onto which I would like to save my files. Do not upload them to the cloud, save them locally on the hard drive for which I paid money. Especially if cloud storage will eventually cost me money, which I have already paid for a hard drive onto which to save my files. If I would like to back up said files to cloud storage, I will do so manually, do not make this the default option on the computer with a functioning hard drive for which I paid money.
#19
I want to show up in person dressed for an interview and get the job on the spot. Not on the internet survey.
#20
Having conversations while eating at the table or while you're out with others instead of being in your own world on your phone
#22
People having loud conversations on their phone everywhere they go. I don’t want to hear about your boyfriend drama or grisly medical procedures at Aldi.
#24
Physical media. I much prefer actually owning a movie or series on Blu-ray/DVD than having to rely on streaming.
#25
I had neighbors that would throw ridiculous house parties every few weekends… cars up and down the street, bass so loud my walls ACROSS THE STREET were vibrating, and drunk 20 year olds puking in the front yard(s) and bushes. I’m 35 and need to SLEEP, man 😭😂 One of the best parts of moving was leaving those neighbors.
#26
Model trains, ham radio, homebuilt crafts, knitting (some guys learned in the navy), gardening.
