I was born in 1958 and plead guilty
“The boomers’ most egregious fuckup was getting married and bearing children that would have to witness and inherit the world they built.”
Not to point fingers, but if you were born between 1946 and 1964, you might have had a hand in ruining the world for every single generation that will ever be born after you. Here are the worst ways that baby boomers screwed over millennials.

The Onion’s customary accuracy
WASHINGTON?Digging in for what could become a weeks-long battle, Democratics and Republicans in Congress reportedly began sparring Thursday over whether Judge Unnamed Black Woman was qualified for the Supreme Court. ?I?m shocked that President Biden, who was elected to office with the promise that he would bridge the partisan divide, would pick someone as polarizing and radical as Judge Unnamed Black Woman,? said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who refuted Senator Chuck Schumer?s assertion that Unnamed Black Woman was the most outstanding pick for the vacancy given her sterling record on TBD issue as well as her impressive education at Ivy League University. ?My colleagues in the Senate and I have looked into Unnamed Black Woman?s records and are quite alarmed by what we?ve seen. If President Biden wants to fill this vacancy, he?s going to have to meet us halfway with a sensible candidate like Unnamed White Woman.? At press time, Democrats had begun expressing their admiration for the Supreme Court pick by christening her with the adoring nickname ?UBW.?

WASHINGTON?Unsettled by the party?s dismal performance in the Virginia governor?s race, Democratic leadership vowed Wednesday to work twice as hard in the coming months to muddle their agenda. ?Last night was a wake-up call that we need to refocus our efforts on alienating the American voter with vague goals and incomprehensible messaging,? said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, advising Democrats from Congress on down to commit themselves to a party-wide effort to baffle new voters with confusing language and a borderline inscrutable agenda. ?Make no mistake, we heard Virginians loud and clear about what we need to deliver. So if there?s a popular section in our legislation, we will cut it. If any of our candidates attract a genuine following, we will work to marginalize them. And if we somehow manage to do something people actually like, we will make sure it?s so buried beneath an avalanche of easily avoidable fuck-ups that no one ever hears about it. Simply put, Democrats need to get out there and make it clear that we can?t find our own ass with our hands.? Schumer went on to say that it would be extremely difficult to sell a more muddled message than ?Build Back Better,? but that this has always been where the Democratic Party shines.

No wonder there’s a market for them
BALTIMORE?A new study released Friday by researchers at Johns Hopkins University revealed that the novel coronavirus Covid-19 was frequently fooled by fake vaccine cards. ?We found that when presented with a counterfeit vaccination card, Covid-19 was unable to distinguish it from the real thing approximately 7 out of 10 times,? said researcher Sharon Hirschinger, who noted that the study provided ?strong and promising evidence? that the falsified records could provide significant protection against the novel coronavirus when presented by unvaccinated individuals gathering at restaurants, concerts, nightclubs. ?It?s easily deceived. Just flash your card and the virus won?t know the difference. In terms of reducing the risk of contracting Covid-19 and experiencing its most severe symptoms, including hospitalization and even death, this study confirms that fake vaccination cards are practically the next best thing to getting vaccinated.? At press time, the FDA had granted fake vaccine cards emergency use authorization in the fight against Covid-19.
