“Well, back in my day…” says a twenty-something year old, reminiscing about “the good old days.” While that might sound funny, some people are old souls who might relate to the elderly more than they do with their own peers.
Many young(-ish) people, like yours truly, often find themselves agreeing with people a few generations older than themselves. Just take this post on Threads, for example: one user asked fellow netizens what is something that makes them go “I’m with the boomers on this one,” and many were eager to share, discussing all sorts of issues and situations. You can find them on the list below.

You should be able to raise a middle class family on the salary of one mediocre white man.

Why are commercials so LOUD, but the TV show so quiet??? I can’t be changing volume every 5 mins!

I want to show up in person dressed for an interview and get the job on the spot. Not on the internet survey.

Having conversations while eating at the table or while you're out with others instead of being in your own world on your phone

I’m glad I kept most of my CDs now, and quite a few DVDs.

People having loud conversations on their phone everywhere they go. I don’t want to hear about your boyfriend drama or grisly medical procedures at Aldi.

Physical media. I much prefer actually owning a movie or series on Blu-ray/DVD than having to rely on streaming.

I had neighbors that would throw ridiculous house parties every few weekends… cars up and down the street, bass so loud my walls ACROSS THE STREET were vibrating, and drunk 20 year olds puking in the front yard(s) and bushes. I’m 35 and need to SLEEP, man 😭😂 One of the best parts of moving was leaving those neighbors.
