boomer volume

A colloquial term used to describe the phenomenon where an individual, often of the Baby Boomer generation, consistently sets the volume excessively high when watching online videos or listening to audio content. This behaviour is typically attributed to a lack of awareness of modern audio norms or potential hearing loss associated with age.

They are often the most unhinged lunatics out there because most of them turned out to be Internet Predators or Serial Killers, but they are mainly grumpy curmudgeons, that complain about stuff like technology, and yet, they say the most racist, deluded shit that ever imagined, like shouting out slurs.

Piper Rockelle is an example of a Boomer, LARPing as a Zoomer. When 4chan finds out about his identity, his birth year is not 2008, but instead 1954.

They use bullshit excuse of nostalgia, just to be racist or anti-abolitionist and they are always ignorant about the current events, and has a broken moral compass
