a problem with baby boomers to think that everything good in the world came from them. In reality, it did not.
Modern computers? Those were invented by cracking the codes of Nazi Germany in World War... that's the Greatest/G.I. Generation.
The Internet? That was created by two men, one born in 1943 and the other in 1938, both well before the baby boom (1946-1965).
World Wide Web? Okay, yes, two British baby boomers invented it originally, BUT...
The MODERN World Wide Web and Internet, with the new end-to-end encryption, WhatsApp, Google, YouTube, Skype, etc.? Those were ALL updated and modified by Generations X and Y (AKA millennials), NOT BOOMERS!
Basically, boomers are not responsible for creating the vast majority of modern technology and society. There was much created WELL BEFORE them that allowed to add their little contribution, and there was much modifying, updating, and innovating that made modern technology work like it is today WELL AFTER them.
Next, boomers will be taking credit for ending WWII (LOL!!!), creating Facebook (ROTFL!!!), and inventing the lightbulb (LMFAOOOOOO!!).
When a Generation Xer or millennial comes up with a device to help the world adapt to global warming and the dangerously changing climate without the human population dying out, then boomers will take credit for that as well. Pathetic. Garbage in, garbage out.

Another example of baby boomer revision disorder is how they think that they were the most revolutionary, badass generation growing up, even though a quick talk with the Silent and Greatest Generation will tell you that these narcissists did absolutely nothing for civil rights or the environment and are still trying to claim all the credit for them.

Get the baby boomer revision disorder mug."Baby Boomer resentment" is a term used to describe the growing feeling of resentment among "Millennials" that they are working to pay for the Social Security and Medicare of Baby Boomers, but they are paying into a system that will be bankrupt and gone by the time they are old enough to retire and have the same benefits. They feel they will be robbed. . . . . . . {The Millennial Generation (or Millennials), also known as Generation Y, describes the demographic group following Generation X. Since there are no exact dates (as of 2011) for when the Millennial Generation starts and ends, commentators have used birth dates ranging somewhere from the mid-1970s to the early 2000s. Members of this generation are also called Echo Boomers, due to the significant increase in birth rates through the 1980s and into the 1990s, and because many of them are children of Baby Boomers}. . . . . . . {A Baby Boomer is a person who was born during the demographic Post-World War II baby boom, from 1946 to 1964}.
Minnennial speaking: "I have 'Baby Boomer resentment' because I'm going to be working all of my life to pay for millions of retired Baby Boomers and when I am old enough to retire there won't be any Social Security or Medicare for me."

Get the Baby Boomer meat locker mug.When she finally divorces her high earning husband after years of not really loving anything but his money, a female baby boomer goes out into the workforce with her characteristic arrogance and entitlement, and gets a very well paid job that she isn't even qualified for.

Get the EDM Baby Boomer mug.The second most self-righteous, self-important, incredibly arrogant generation of all time. The progeny of Generation X, who grew up with the hardship of the tolerating baby boomers, didn’t have iPhones and spoiled their Boomer-baby children with phones, computers and consumer trash society told them they needed. A generation characterised by crushing anxiety and new mental illnesses, invented as they never had any realistic fear so they fabricated them. Boomer-babies had everything handed to them on a silver platter from day 1.
They act as if the world (particularly THEIR parents and older cousins) owes them a gigantic debt of gratitude for being born and how they perceive they have changed society with their work in civil, religious, gender and animal rights. An achievement that was really built on the shoulders of all the generations before them. They inherited a liberal, socially free and peaceful world, which they destroyed with their triggered outrage and safe spaces.
They can be characterised by an expectation of being given everything without any work and demanding immediate gratification in all aspects of their socially anxious lives.
