Yeah, I know that that’s what the poster is referencing, but I’m saying that the image meme itself is kinda mixing generations.
Like, if one wanted to do a boomer-themed meme, it’d probably be using 1970s-themed stuff. Organic, bubbly typefaces, flat, earthtone areas, something like that. Pre-digital art.
Or maybe earlier.
The fluorescents and stuff is gonna be late for them.
I kinda prefer it though, it’s like gen X taunting boomer. Someone calling something “boomer as fuck” wouldn’t be a boomer, so it doesn’t make sense for it to be boomer styled.
The boomer thing isn’t the synthwave, it’s the OP comic
