    I didn’t ache in the morning, hairline was better, skin smoother…

    Every boomer comic is about old people saying life was better when they were young, or that they hate their wife.

      The difference is that even young people say life was better when boomers were young.

      Higher wages, cheaper housing, lower cost of living.

        Was better in some regards. I think most minorities in the US would agree that they at least feel safe and more free to exist in 2024 than they would in the 1980s or earlier.
