Fortunately, for the most part, the left side of this comic doesn’t apply to most of us in India, unless you were born in the 2010s or the later half of the 2000s…
…and even then, we use stamps, cash, cardinal points, and clocks with hands.
(To be technical, millennials are defined as those who come of age in the new millennium, not always those born in it.)
(Oh, and in India, we fix things when they break. It’s a skill that the Anglophonic world will need to acquire at some point in the next thirty years.)
As a Boomer I do all 5, but I also refer to the late 1900’s and call them the “good old days”, I read digital newspapers on my computer and think digital sounds better than vinyl although vinyl like AM radio has a certain warm nostalgic feel to it.
How do annoy a Gen-X’er:-insist that free speech also requires accountability-call them a millennial-respond to them by saying, “Okay, boomer”-make fun of their hotmail email address-insist Pearl Jam and Notorious B.I.G. are overrated-ask what an NES is
Certainly not a Ringo hater, in fact, I once commented that Ringo was the most ‘fun and interesting’ Beatle and the rest of the room started angrily shouting at me as if I had just committed heresy.

Technically a Boomer, and I HATE vinyl! I was GLAD when CDs came out. I stopped getting a newspaper 15 years ago.

Digital sounds? Then explain the digitization error.

Cardinal points as opposed to what? Come starboard to 097? All boomers are younger than I am, so I’m really behind things

I’m a Boomer and I have to say Ringo WAS the best Beatle and I’ve felt that way since I was month shy of my 14th birthday.
(Also haven’t read a print newspaper in years)

Once again you hit the nail on the head! Gotta love those millennials-they could be asking “Who’s Ringo?”

Throw Hipsters into the mix and who knows.

The “use cash” one is certainly true!
