The poll doesn't have any category corresponding to boomers though...

Hey, I'm just happy to still be in the "25" category!

You do realize that baby boomers are at a minimum 56 years old since the cut off birth year for that age demographic is 1964. I’m not sure what your poll is supposed to be doing other than trolling. (I don’t believe you’re really that dumb.)

If you want more accuracy you need to add in Generation X and Millennials

I don't see this thread going anywhere positive...

25 is the cutoff for boomers, huh?

Indeed, but I made it in the 25+ spot

If we are talking about baby boomers, then the youngest today would be around 55 years old.

This is stupid and a waste of my time.

According to this poll, about all your devs are classified as "Boomers" So I hope you like a game made by "Boomers" I'm Proud to be older and have experienced gaming from the very start of Atari 2600. I can only imagine where gaming will go from here, I'm hoping the "Oasis" but i'll be dead by then lol

Heh - I had a 5200, glad there's another old guy on the roster.

You people and your labels.

Geez the average age of my guild is north of 45.

While technically correct, it is common to use it to refer to anyone considered old by the speaker who is probably in the teens or early 20s.

The phrase has been used as a retort...and The New York Times wrote that "teenagers use it to reply to cringey YouTube videos, Donald Trump tweets, and basically any person over 30 who says something condescending about young people...

I have seen it used in this way in music videos, TikTok's, and memes that I have randomly stumbled across on the net.

IMO Boomer in the popular conscious means at least 35 if not 40 plus... if in reality it means like 55+. I am in my mid twenties and have never heard anyone in their twenties call anyone in their twenties a boomer except maybe as a joke and even then I can't remember a specific event.

Was this put together by a 15 year old?

I feel like this poll should be renamed "where are the zoomers?"

Maybe all the babies being born to people stuck in quarantine will be called Zoom Boomers?
