Internet backlash over “#HowToConfuseAMillennial” puts baby boomers in their place

What’s worse than living with your parents? The sass they give you about millennials living with their parents. Internet backlash arises over #HowToConfuseAMillenial, and gives baby boomers a taste of their own medicine.

The tag began twitter as a way to slight millennials for all of their failures as a generation. Some of the older generation stepped in to toss around a few jokes, but soon millennials took a few stabs back. Now a tidal wave of sassy comebacks flooded the social media platform.

A few of the baby boomers got in on the action.

But the millennials didn't stay silent for long. Some people pointed out the irony about their complaints.
