lead paint stare 

The blank, extremely prolonged, empty, silent stare that boomers give you when you do something they dislike. The delayed reaction is likely caused by brain damage from years of lead paint inhalation.

When I asked that old man to please stop trying to skip me in line, I got hit with the lead paint stare for a good 45 seconds.

Lead Paint Stare 

A rude or empty stare from an old person (who probably sniffed lead paint growing up).

I was working at applebees when I asked an old guy if he liked the food. Then he hit me with that lead paint stare.

Lead paint stare 

a term to describe an out of touch/delusional/stupid elderly person, that acts weird. "lead paint stare" is something some old people have, making them look like they're not really there, said to be an effect of lead poisoning.
why its used to describe old people is because someone near the age of your grandmother, most likely had their walls painted with paint, which contains lead, hence the lead poisoning.

shorter version: old fella has wall paint with lead, and it makes him act and look weird.

guy 1: that old person looks weird af
guy 2: yeah old person got that lead paint stare.
