True Boomer Monolithicism on display.
WE had the best music
WE had drive-ins
WE had Happy Days
Anyone who didn’t like them wasn’t one of US
But yeah, it was the damn hivemind commies who were the problem
It’s not called the me generation for no reason at all.
So we hate monolithicism, understood.
Yes, we all do. Universally. Monolithically, you might say.
WE hated racists and fascists.
WE didn’t want to die in medical poverty.
WE believed in eating the rich.
Anyone who didn’t like them wasn’t one of US.
Speaking truth to power
You speaking like it’s a quote ……it’s a fucking cartoon.
fastest cars
You can buy a mid level sedan with a turbo today that will blow the doors off of most cars from that era. I mean we have cars today with 1500+ horsepower with zero modifications.
I don’t disagree with your first part but 1,500 stock HP?? Even Tesla, known for making up numbers, says that the S Plaid makes 1,020hp.
Eh, I’m not trying to be pedantic but it seems a bit disingenuous to include boutique hypercars in this kind of conversation. Almost all those above 1,200hp were produced in extremely limited production runs. Sure, we might have cars making 1,500hp or more, but it isn’t like that’s in any way common or the technology needed to make them is attainable to many people. Shit, I think a more effective comparison to get your point across is the fact that a base level Civic is making more power than a '67 Nova SS.
Yeah from the list the absolutely nuts, one-off, dragracing versions of cars from the 50s/60s made ~400hp. Which could be outdone by an option on the Camero last year. And if you wanted more it’s not difficult, just more money.
And raw HP numbers don’t take into account how much better modern cars drive or how much safer they are. I daily a car from the 80s and love it. But lack of ABS or traction control or airbags or a collapsible steering column does come to mind every once in awhile. Cars from the 50s/60s will have notably worse handling/cornering/etc.

You’re literally just rewording the first sentence of my original comment dawg.
The first part of my first reply was literally “I don’t disagree with your first part.”
Then why say any of this at all lol you’re suggesting I make an analogy I already made
Triples of the Nova.

People from the 50 usually could earn actually money that they could save and now buy new cars
People nowadays definitely earn that kind of money, they just don’t get it.
Dude, you know you’re arguing with a cartoon ? Right ?
Yeah but I didn’t feel like working today, so
Reasonable
Dude, you know you’re arguing with squiggles on a screen ? Right ?
This is the mentality of older boomers you didn’t go through the war or the 50s you were a baby. You literally rode the 60s-90s boom train . Remember one telling me rose tinted stories about rationing dude was 50 it ended like 20 years before he was born
You had me worried for a minute there. Had to check I wasn’t in a community for Facebook memes.
We can make it so if you want!
Deploy the minions!
Glorious.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

We still got drive-ins. Got a footjob at one once.
Ewwww. Dude those feet could have touched the food! Who knows where that food has been?!
I’ll stick to my footjobs in a more healthy establishment like that dumpster behind the waffle house.
Truly the pinnacle of human experience.
If you were born in the 50’s you had rock and roll, acid rock, heavy metal, disco, synthwave, house, grunge, and rap.
Not a bad claim to the best music. They only missed classical, jazz and big band. Weird Al was born in the 50’s. If you think Weird Al doesn’t have the best music then I say to you, “Good day, sir!”
Weird Al doesn’t have the best music.
<3
Good day, sir!
Good day!
Weird Al’s music is mostly just other people’s music, with his own lyrics.
…and ignorant, and stupid, and moronic, and selfish, and rude, and entitled, and…

Fastest cars, yet can’t do 35 in a 40 zone…
Or my personal blood boiler: doing 50 in a 60 zone. Drops to a 40 zone, they continue to do 50
But it evens out!!!
1999ers have a good chance to see 3 centuries and 2 millenia, dats even cooler :)
Are they aware Happy Days wasn’t a documentary?
I don’t even understand this shit. People born in the 50s came of age in the 60s and the 70s. When they say they had happy days, they literally mean they watched it on TV.
WHAT! The Fonz wasn’t real? That’s crazy talk. You must be one of those Cosby people or Italian.

Not that old yet

Needs more fax machine artefacts for that authentic boomer-meme look.
8 decades, now.
You’re missing quite a lot of words that end in phobic at the end there.
