Esoteric boomerism

The set of behaviours and beliefs that boomers gravitate towards when they lose touch with the non-boomer world.
Includes things such as:
- All caps facebook posts and comments that should be private messages
- Hating one's children or considering them to be entitled despite having to compete in a 10x harsher field
- Loving all ideas when said by a talking head on TV, but hating the same ideas when formulated differently (TV says we must fight Iran, but we cannot increase taxes or cut medicare for it)
- Drawings of skeletons riding motorcycles, for some reason
- The Myspace aesthetic, without even knowing what it is

Esoteric boomerism often takes the form of well-meaning advice that turns out to be so retarded it elicits the opposite reaction from its audience
Did you hear that Mike's grandparents charge them for Thanksgiving dinner while expecting them to fly to their mansion in California?
Oh dude, I thought my parents kicking me out of the house at 18 was peak boomerism, but this is esoteric boomerism

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)

An armpit enthusiast — typically of the scent, appearance, and touch of hairy underarms.
That dude’s such a pitpig, I have to wear deodorant to keep him at bay.

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Huge. Surpassing normal expectations.
I was fishing with a Spinner Bait and a HONKIN pike came after it and hit it . Felt like a lawnmower running over a brick.
