Boomers Rock

I post a new animation most days on Twitter, and it's nice to see a steady increase in followers, but reading some of their posts I have noticed that some have a dislike of Boomers. My first thought was to make a "Boomers lives matter" animation, but such thoughts are old hat and any reference to that saying can attract unwanted attention. All my boomer friends really do rock, so this animation seemed just about right, so it was posted on Twitter where I have seen a slight decline in follower. Coincidence maybe, but who cares, us boomers really are the dog's bollocks in the digital world.

I'm sorry to hear about the pain issues, but I'm there with you. It seems like I have back pain at least every other day. As for boomers, from what I've read, they're actually ones born between 1940 and 1960. Generation 13 (aka X), my generation, are those born between 1961 and 1981. This is roughly going by the number of generations since those who signed the Declaration of Independence.
