Boomer is short for Baby-boomer. Not necessarily pertaining to their actual age, but a mentality from a time where the finite value of the world was not properly appreciated; a society whose capitalistic ploys has led to a mass ecological/economical crisis; someone not very conscious about preserving the rest of the world. One who thinks along the lines of "oh, my carpet outside of my fireplace is on fire, and burning naturally happens, so i may as well poor gasoline on it instead of water, cause f#$@ the prospect of preserving a home for my family to live in. Oh and I just spawned 10 grandchildren while we had this talk" Except this analogy doesn't even begin to depict the actual crisis, as there is only one home available to the entire family for all time. (Unless space-X takes off, but to rely on that solely would be dumb, especially if you're not super rich).
Boomer :"Maybe I would listen to Greta Thurnberg if she wasn't so rude about asking us to not poor gasoline on the house."

Get the Boomer mug.Typically an older person who is from, or probably still lives in, the southern states-Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Carolinas, and Louisiana. They speak with a heavy southern accent saying things with an overly dramatized draw in tone. They are often very rude, selfish, do not know how to cook anything other than fried food, eat out too much, drink alcohol or sweet tea constantly, are overweight, ugly, and white. They are just as selfish and narcissistic as all the other boomers in the world but the southerners are much more uneducated, racist, fake, judgemental, and out of touch with the modern world. And they are likely to make threats if you cross them in any way.
They will speak nasty and rude if you cross a southern boomer and find anything or anyone in their path because they are mostly miserable. A Boomer from South Carolina said, "Scat, scat, scat aawwfff myyyy property or I'm goinaaa git fittin taa git real pissed awfff cuz I AM Suuthhhhern and i dont care bout yewww."

Get the Southern Boomer mug.The phrase is used when someone is calling someone else (usually the person calling that person a boomer is younger then that person) really annoying or because that person being called a boomer is talking bad about the new generation.

We spent half the meeting explaining how the new IoT sensors work because our Boomer Engineer thought "the cloud" was just a fancy term for offsite storage.
