    I can’t wait for the “GenZ are killing the restaurant business!” headlines.

      To late us millennials already claimed that. Pretty sure we killed restaurants around the same time we killed movie theaters, trade schools, and domestic beer.

          I feel like “Boomer” has lost all genuine meaning and really has just become “anyone over 40.” Pretty soon Gen X will be the new Boomers and Gen Z and Gen Alpha will pivot to blindly loathing them and blaming them for climate change and the myriad atrocities of capitalism.

            I think it still has meaning. Just not the same meaning it had 10ish years ago. “Boomer” has transcended description of a particular generation and now refers to a general set of real or perceived attitudes and behaviors.

    GenX here, sounds like me a few decades ago, counting the pennies and balancing everything, and not completely succeeding.
