Noun. A banal thought terminating cliche used by boomers and boomer sympathizers to convey the failed "conventional wisdom" of their generation. These cliche sayings are typical political or economic in nature and are refutable by hard real-world evidence.
The burden of evidence required to refute a "boomerism" is often substantial, requiring reference to the CPI (Consumer Price Index), Wage Index, or other economic data available on FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data).
Millennials and Zoomers are too busy working their jobs as senior economic analysts, program directors, or serving coffee to pay off students loans, to refute boomerisms.
None the less, entitled boomers feel obliged to be provided with hours of high valued consulting work, at no cost, to disprove them. Millennials and Zoomers have adopted a strategy of responding to boomerism with the much less costly "Ok Boomer".
Boomer: "Well hello there youngster, what are you doing?"
40 y/o balding senior management wage slave: "Doing my taxes. It looks like I might be able to pay off my student loans and mortgage by the time I'm 83."
Boomer: "I see you are eating avocado toast there! You know, if you ate less avocado toast, and lived in a shoe, you could be free of debt by now!"
Waitress: "Now that's a boomerism, if I ever heard one."
40 y/o balding senior management wage slave: "Ok, boomer."
Boomer: "STOP! Ok Boomer is the new N-word!"

1.) a shortened way of referring to a baby boomer
2.) is a stereotype derived from the generation baby boomer. it’s most commonly used in the popular internet phrase “ok boomer”. it is a stereotype for baby boomers, and can be described as the old person who is against video games and electronics. the old people that always rant about how things are different. they seem to be easily annoyed by change and will take it out on everyone, especially kids. while actual baby boomers range from birth years 1944 to 1964, the stereotypical ‘boomer’ could probably just be 53, like my mom. she acts like a boomer.
