    The phone is the keystone for the young comment. Even though ime boomers use their phones more than younger generations, I see more boomer memes about “phone use hahaha” than any other

    Its a stereotype like any other joke.

    But funniest things I have seen is where people dependent on tech, lack general awareness skills.

    There was a girl dropped off to meet a friend in our suburb, the friend was outside but a different area less than 100 feet away. They had their heads down texting each other what looked like “where you at?” “I’m over here” type Convo, and could have been using a location type app.

    They wandered around, crossing the street, and walking up and down missing each other, until they eventually were heading directly toward each other and would have collided. They could have saved a few minutes by just looking up and doing a head swivel.

    I also saw the same with a Skip-the-Dishes guy on foot following his app to deliver the bag of food, he was half a house off location and going up on the wrong porch, and the lady is out on her porch saying that’s mine, your are delivering over here. He was adimant he had to drop it per the app location, and went off the other way.

    So I said dude forget the GPS location , what is the house number, he gave me the number, and I said that’s that house with the lady on the porch, see the numbers on the post over her porch. Then a light bulb went off for him.

    But as a balanced bash against boomer generation, my mom thinks WiFi comes through the AC cord to her laptop, and will not accept my explanation of WiFi

        Yes this meme is a clever subversion of gender stereotypes and not meant as a reinforcement thereof 🙄

            I dont think I understand your point? Or what you are trying to say, like no archaeologists wouldn’t find hair transplants like that and therefore…?

            Edit: and i think even if inaccurate it would work just as well as a “joke”, note all the impossibilities in the current picture. Her nails, how she’s holding her phone, the breast implants at the exact location and so on

            Just that I think you guys are reading too much into it. I’m pretty sure the joke doesnt need to go much further than “imagine digging that up on a history dig”

              Lol. I love that this was(/is?) a way to verify if it’s a bot writing.

              In a way, it’s a badge of honor to have some of your content be questioned.

                as to them always having existed, we have old skeletons with stuff like this done to them, Im not sure some implants found with a body would be much stranger.

                  Judging by the quality of humor I’ve seen on here, half the users must be boomers.

                          People when women’s boobs are small: -scoffs-

                          People when women’s boobs are big: ‘Attention whore.’

                          People women’s boobs are implants: ‘Fake ass hoe.’

                          People when women: ‘You shouldn’t be like that because it’s unattractive to me and that’s the only thing you’re good for.’

                            (Also because I am curious: do implants really last longer than human skin and organs?)

                            Yeah now I’m curious if morticians remove this stuff and like medical metal stuff when they prepare people for burial.

                                I mean to be fair I feel like various body modifications have always existed and probably will always exist. At most this will probably just look dated once everyone moves onto wanting spiky foreheads or something instead of bigger boobs

                                More like people in the future can order any boob size they want made from their own cells for the price of a happy meal. Nobody will know if they are body mods since the lab grown boobs are indistinguishable from body grown boobs since they are made from human tissue. It will become ubiquitous. People will just change boobs sizes on a whim, since the surgery will take less than a day. Going on an ultra run? get the flat chest package the day before. Your partner has a big boob fetish? get the huge mammaries package for their birthday. Even men might get a boob job for a day because they want to go in drag on halloween.

                                  I am not sure why there is all the ‘Ok Boomer’ hate for this post. People must feel personally attacked for some reason and are lashing out.

                                  This sort of misinterpreting the past humor can be really funny if you are interested in archeology. Publications such as The Journal of Irreproducible Results and books like The Wens are great for this.
