Buzzfeed recently posted a list of the 35 Things Baby Boomers Are Completely Obsessed With That Make Literally No Sense To Millennials. They found a ton of tweets from millennials complaining about their elders.

Ten Things Baby Boomers Are Totally Obsessed With:

  • The thumbs-up emoji. And using a ton of ellipses in texts
  • Complaining about younger generations not knowing and using cursive
  • Zooming in on every single picture. And filming videos with their iPads
  • Always leaving voicemails, no matter the situation
  • Drinking from the hose and talking about drinking from the hose
  • Nautical-themed bathrooms, including beach, lighthouse, and sailboat décor
  • The lack of TV channels when they grew up
  • Wanting to sit at booths in restaurants. And paying in exact change
  • Talking on speakerphone in public
  • Having a two year supply of cough drops around the house

You'll likely pick up some knowledge from a wide range of Americana: one of the last remaining 1950s-style drive-ins in the Midwest; a Florida town that started as a Civil War veteran retirement area; an island boasting some of the country's top public schools and wealth-earners right in the middle of a lake between Seattle and Bellevue; and even a California town containing much more than Johnny Cash's prison blues.
