Is It Just Me Or Do Baby Boomers Text Like Drunk Millennials? (19 Texts)

We’ve grown so accustomed to today’s technology that it’s easy to forget how much older generations tend to struggle with even the seemingly easiest forms of digital communication. Anyone who’s ever given their parent or grandparent an iPhone knows exactly what I’m talking about.

Texting with a baby boomer is like texting with your friend who’s been day drinking since noon—nearly impossible to understand, but hopelessly hilarious. These are just a few conversations that could easily be your grandmother or your drunk ass on a Saturday night, we don’t judge.
