Today is your day Boomer! We all do dumb things....like putting diesel in a car gas tank, or weedwacking your lawn in flipflops, or forgetting your anniversary. As aging Boomers, some of it we can atribute to us getting older and more forgetful....or....us gradually getting dementia. But really, there are no excuses for basic dumbness (is that a real word?), just like there is no justification for Boomer men excusing their actions because, you know, "boys will be boys." According to the renowned Cambridge Dictionary, this famous slang expression is "said to emphasize that people should not be surprised when boys or men act in a rough or noisy way because this is part of the male character." Like doing flips on a snowmobile, rock climbing without a rope, or driving twice the speed limit! Duhhhh. Boomer men are mature, just like Boomer women. Today, I am calling you out on stupidity....no matter what your gender. Let's all do smart, common sense things that benefit our family, friends, or community. And as I always told my kids growing up, "think before you do"!!! Cheers.
