    That’s how language works, buddy. It’s fluid.

    And as you can see from the definition you provided, one word can have multiple meanings based on context.

        Right, because the dictionary takes a while to update.

        Using boomer as an insult is a new definition. I’m not sure why this is such a hard concept for you to grasp.

          “Boomer” has a very clear definition, and it’s quite clear how it’s misused. I understand that this is a hard concept for you to grasp, but if you stay in school, you’ll learn more about such things.
