I think a lot of the younger folks on the social media are just wanting attention. It is like yelling, "Look at me, look what I can do!"

Take out the word 'younger', replace 'the social media' with 'everywhere', a change 'just wanting attention' to 'desparate attention whores'.

Amen brother you got it right!

as those of us who were born to boomers.

A lot of the older people on BBSes back when I was a kid had these same kind of "troll-esque" discussions. I just don't understand
the point of some of i I always had a lot of fun with it.

I think a lot of the younger folks on the social media are just
wanting attention. It is like yelling, "Look at me, look what I can
do!" John, telnet://ricksbbs.synchro.net:23

idiot kids on social media think anybody older than them is a boomer.
they call people in their 40s boomers.

I feel sorry for them. They are going to miss out on some real character and community building experiences in REAL life. I am a boomer and proud of it. John,
