minus-squareRoss_audio@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·edit-24 months agoWrong way to approach it. To parents, start using the word wrong. Any time you kid does something cool you might have done as a kid. “Awesome, that’s so boomer.” If they can’t do their homework. “You’re such a boomer.” It drives kids up the wall when parents use slang right, but when you use it wrong it’s even more infuriating.
