Boomers are unique creatures whose habits oscillate wildly between charmingly nostalgic and frustratingly stubborn. On one hand, they bring genuine warmth with handwritten birthday cards and family recipes, and on the other, an inexplicable need to print every single email. Boomers have perfected the art of holding contradictory ideas—like complaining about millennials' dependence on technology while simultaneously sharing fake news stories on Facebook.
