Boomer Virus occurs when an old person tries to
use modern technology. Infection takes hold when the old person enters denial and blames the technology or someone/something else for it not working, when in
fact it is their own actions causing the
problem.
Boomer "I sent you an email but it was rejected, it must be your email address."
You "Boomer virus perhaps?" (The boomer had typed the email address you have linked to ebay,
bank, phone and everything else in your entire
life incorrectly.)
Boomer: "The DVD player doesn't work!"
You: "Boomer virus?" (The boomer had not put the
DVD in the player, or something equally stupid)
Boomer: "My computer just restarted by itself!"
You: "Boomer virus?" (The boomer had
pressed Windows
Key +
X when they were trying to Copy + Paste a word document or whilst furiously deleting GILF pr0n)
Boomer: "No matter what I do, I just cannot take a photo on my mobile phone!"
You: "Did it catch a Boomer Virus?" (The boomer keeps pressing the Back button instead of the Take Photo button, because a mobile phone isn't made of ancient cogs and typewriter
keys)
