Jeff Goldblum was so preoccupied with whether or not he could open his mouth, he didn’t stop to think if he should.

I am OK with this as long as she is played by Catherine Zeta Jones.

As a middle age Gen-Xer, I love this. It’s a good, sarcastic way of making a point that I totally support. The boomers know what they did.

“And what is ‘it’ seems weird and scary to me. It’ll happen to you!”

Boomers didn’t vote when they were young either. The voting age was lowered to 18, Nixon was dry humping the constitution nightly & the Boomers had been drafted by the scores to head to Vietnam and McGovern had his ass handed to him in 72.

>‘Boomer’ is the n-word of ageism 

My favorite use of it yet (the fact that the folks in charge of the closed captioning thought that she was saying “OK, Burma” just adds even more fun):
