Beautiful, glorious baby boomer hatin'

This post would have been near perfect HAD HE NOT TITLED IT AFTER A GODDAMN BABY BOOMER SONG!
I hate everything about them: their reckless self-absorption; their ghastly, repetitive music; their timorous, by-the-book attitude toward child rearing. Lately, boomers like filmmaker Ken Burns and columnist Tom Friedman have taken to delivering pompous graduation speeches, apologizing for bollixing up the world. Burns claimed to this year’s Boston College grads that his generation has “squandered the legacy handed to them by the generation from World War II.’’
