holy shit

What?

It wasn't an insult I swear.

Maybe it’s just cause I only really know and talk to like 4 of them but all the ones I’ve met are incredibly kind and supportive people
I don’t understand why everyone hates them so much, is there something I’m missing?

I have like one brain cell and need people to explain seemingly common knowledge to me

It's alright Nutella. Me too and I don't think I'm dumb.

Some boomers are fine, but then there's the ones that are still stuck in the 1940s and those ones suck

Many boomers are self absorbed jerks who refuse to be open minded. And I don't mean on any specific thing. Just in general.

You don't think you're dumb? I feel like everyone thinks they're dumb.

Well, sometimes I do. But then I think, "If I'm dumb, most everyone is even dumber so…"

Hmm, good question!
I would say YA and NA, because while some stories do focus on fully teen casts, others do not, but I wouldn't say they're adult adult.
Weirdly enough, I would consider the first fae story I'm working on to be YA, but its sequel NA (due to the introduction of several adult characters, and the darker themes explored in it). The stuff with the older adults (Geneva, Jackson, Victor, and Henry) is new adult because they're adults, and also it gets dark at times, especially when Gen and Victor are involved. The quasi-dystopian stuff is in that weird area where there's nothing really adult about it, but the characters tend to be 18+ as opposed to younger.

To elaborate:
Fae: Has a lot of older characters and also has some darker themes and generally mature stuff
Twyllo: Older cast, but not much mature content besides some war stuff.
Ehre: Probably YA? It deals a lot with neglect and abuse though, and has a handful of POV characters who are adults. Also about corrupt governments.
Creston: YA aged characters but is also set in a fucking chaotic anarchy so who knows what'll happen.
Detectives: All adult cast, deals heavily with grief, guilt, and abuse. Also like murder and stuff.
High School: YA, because it's high school.

Well, sometimes I do. But then I think, "If I'm dumb, most everyone is even dumber so…"

I am dumb and so is everyone else. Everyone's dumb sometimes.

Everyone's dumb sometimes.

Fair.

That's true. I feel like boomers don't have the understanding that Gen Z/Millenials do if that makes sense? Like, our generations don't care if the takeout is a little late, but boomers want to talk to your manager about it.

^Same with Gex X for the most part

^Same with Gex X for the most part

For the boomer side or Gen Z/Millenials side?

But they are so sure about what is. I don't get that. I have very firm beliefs but I would be mad to assume I was right on everything. The best way is to have your ideas held strong but let them be challenged continually.

Oof I'm so dumb.

Boomers are stuck. Where as younger generations refuse to be held down. They go with the flow.

There's good and bad for both views. Boomers just more so

Yeah, boomers seem to always pull the "I'm older so I know best!" card when it's not true? Idk, to me the whole 'respect your elders' schtick is only true if they respect you.

I demand respect from all of you.

Boomer

I demand respect from all of you.

You already have my respect.

SWAG

Huh. Yeah I clearly don’t know a lot of boomers then

In my family it’s the Gen X-ers (my mom especially) that have strong unchangeable opinions, demand respect at all times, and complain to the manager
While the boomers (my grandpa especially), on the other hand, are all these sweet, caring people who do their best to understand our generation, are quite open-minded, and would most likely bake chocolate cookies for the manager
