I love how brad picked up the coupon section of the newspaper and immediately knew the queen died. Gotta check the the coupons y’all
Brad as this character may be one of my favorites 😂 also the whole explaining directions after you say you're just going to plug it in Google maps.. "I'm not hearing a word you're saying" sums it up perfectly 😆
Best one yet 😆
Only as Lester would be an awesome upgrade!
With the huge smack on poor Jake’s back 😂
“PEOPLE don’t use the PEEPHOLE anymore?! What’s wrong with PEOPLE?!?”
Too good, String Bean!
I say that tho frfr
GenX’er here….imagine living in a world where you are essentially both of these people at once. 😵💫
I can relate. 😂
We are a small but special group that got to experience it all! Class of 2000 here,
Yessssss 😂😂 this is how I feel
O.M.G. YESSSSSS!! We're the bridge generation. I'm 46 and just about a year into full on middle-aged confusion and crotchety whininess in public at tech, much to the "omg" of my Gen Z kids. At least I can laugh at myself! The latest is my mom got an email for Arby's app owners, for a discount. She could *NOT* hear me that she had to get the app, so the email would send her into the app for the discount CODE. The cashier doesn't have a way to see your pretty email with the "redeem here" button. 🤣 Just me repeating, "mom. Do you have the app?" and she kept answering that she set up an account but couldn't get in. I told my son to engage her next visit to get that squared away.
🤯 thank you! My feelings totally make sense now… I was relating so much to both of them. 😂
The trying to give you directions part is so, so accurate. They just can’t NOT give you directions. Literally all I need is your address, dude. I also don’t want to just follow you there. Give me the address!
I just had this conversation with my mom! She couldn't help herself! Mom, thank you but I have Google maps.
@@sarahborders2348 I just let them get it out of their systems, but I’m actually like Jake in the video - I’m not truly listening to any of it. 😄
I always give u the directions cuz sometimes Google takes people somewhere else. Plus I'm middle age. 😀
Yeah, relying on Google maps is all well and good until you put in an address it doesn't know how to find (but it thinks it does). Then suddenly things get interesting.
I hate when people won't listen to directions. I know where the shortcuts are and how to keep you from missing your turn. But I've given up and let them go the wrong way til they call...
My mom can’t stop herself from giving directions. 😂😂😂 “Turn left on Main Street, then 3 blocks down go right onto Maple St. no wait, 2 blocks. Now that I think about it, they have been doing some road work so you may need to skip Main St. Speaking of Main St, did you hear that Sharon Lewis’ grand niece married Bill Jones?!” Who is Sharon Lewis and Bill Jones?? And I already have the entire route mapped out on my phone before we even started the conversation. 😅
This is my MIL too. I try to be polite, but it is kind of amusing. They try so hard and it's so unnecessary.
As a Boomer, I approve this video!
Lots of truth in it.
My dad’s a boomer and he refuses to have Alexa in his house because she spies on him lol
@@TheLudmilita he’s right!! That bish knows it all😅
The amount of times I’ve told my mother in law that I can just google map an address and she still gives me directions… this hit home so perfectly 😂
Lol I am convinced that Brad is actually a boomer
Such a good one! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Brad not actually having a pen was the most millennial part of the video. 🤣 Cracked me up! Are there no pens at the new studio?
I will say that as someone in the mid-late 30s, I'm finding some older people who know technology better than I do.
Always a boomer trying to give you real time directions after you’ve insisted multiple times you and your GPS are good! 😂
It actually came in handy when we were visiting said boomer out in the boonies and had shit cell reception and got lost a few times. He gave us good old-fashioned directions and a hand-drawn map and we were good to go. Since that day I swore, I'll never trash talk boomer directions again 😂
@@ThinWhiteAxe I love you for this comment!
@@texasmimi5566 hey it's a true story! I'll forever be grateful to Uncle Rich for that hand-drawn map lol. Gotta stick up for the lost art of navigating without your cell phone, cuz you never know when you'll need it.
"Bring me my finest ballpoint" 🤣🤣🤣
"We have Time Warner, I think..."
I'm dying!!! This was my mom EVERY TIME! 😂
😂😂😂😂 Time Warner was the ish
The driveway conversation happens a lot !
Never would I have thought gum could be so minty. 😂🤣😂🤣
"We can go to the bank together." I'm dead.
Why do I always relate to the boomer in your videos and I’m in my 20’s.
Brad wasn't joking with the handful of channel changers to work a tv 😅 and if you accidentally hit the wrong button it could be hours to get back to that channel 😳
I am in between both groups and I can’t stand trying to figure out the remotes and tv system so I just cast from my phone or just watch things from my phone in general. I think we need a better universal remote.
@@tecksislady7836 me too! I always end up on my phone!
“We have Time-Warner” 😭
Hooey is one of my favorite old people sayings. Redeems an old person’s pureness when they’re upset
Omg the “get out and do something with ur life” part is literally what my parents say in their lectures whenever I try to show them a RUclips video lmao
I kinda quit trying to figure out technology and i am 33. Im kinda getting creeped out by all the tracking and cancelling so i basically watch RUclips and some streaming stuff but I'm really thinking of just going off grid and becoming like a boomer, that way when it all crashes maybe i will have a head start.
Brad is just too good at playing a boomer 🤣
Hahah very funny sketch! Can't believe you haven't done one of these yet! Very fitting for you two! My favorite is definitely the "you always need to carry cash" and "lets go down to the bank together" xD
"Cash is king.... AND APARENTLY SO IS CHARLES" had me dying
I’m 29 and have a love/hate relationship with technology. I love navigation because MapQuest has screwed me a time or two 😂 but I don’t trust having an Alexa speaker in the house. And the only money app thing I have is PayPal; I’m not hip with Venmo or any of that.
Lol same
Don't feel bad: I'm 24 but anytime someone asks me, "Hey can I Venmo you the money?" my response is always, "Do you have cash? I keep having trouble with the app." I feel like such an old soul sometimes! I know how to navigate the Internet and use it to look up tutorials all the time, but then I prefer older technology most of my day-to-day activities. I don't trust Alexa and I'm not getting a smart-anything besides a smart-phone
@@tabithaalphess2115 agreed lol. Never used an app for payment. My friend uses his chase platinum card with the apple wallet and they scan his phone, I’ll pass lol.
“You got Fandango on that thing?” I think Brads character was top notch in this haha
As a tech Ed teacher, “millennial”, and son of “boomers”, this is so accurate. I’m much closer to the boomer than millennial.
THIS literally happened to me this week. I go over to my parents house. My mom had just purchased a new laptop and was working on setting it up, so I asked her how it was going and she answered, "I'm really frustrated, I can't seem to set up my fingerprint password." I'm like, "Hmm, shouldn't be too hard, let me see what you're doing." I walk over and there she is tapping the screen violently and saying, "see it's not working!" My dad, mind you, who has an almost identical laptop with fingerprint sensor, is like, "I've tried it on her laptop too and I can't get it either. We've tapped and tapped on the screen and nothing." So I'm like "Oh..My...Goodness...you guys do realize the sensor is on the keyboard so tapping the screen will do nothing riiiiggghhhhtttt?"
So they figure that out. Two seconds later, my mom is frustrated again...."I'm typing in my password for my PIN and it's not working. I'm so over this!" So I'm like, "Mom, what exactly are you typing in?" She lists her password in words. At this point I just inhale and realize it's going to be a while with this setup of hers after I inform her that a PIN is a personal identification NUMBER, so it was never words it's only numbers.
But remember she taught you how to use a fork..
@@teresateresa8933 and I'm absolutely 100% sure that was frustrating for them!
I hate to break it to you, but my Windows 11 computer calls it a "PIN" even though I used letters and not numbers. The box says "PIN" before you start typing and underneath it says "I forgot my PIN". Settings also lists it as a PIN. Threw me off when they first started doing that because I wanted to use a regular password rather than numbers, but I quickly realized they just changed what they're calling it.
@@AdeleiTeillana This was not that.
This 59-year-old Boomer does most of what the Millenials do. My 61-year-old husband, however.....well, Brad hit that nail on the head. Lol!
i’m Gen Z, and i usually hang out with my Boomer grandma, and it’s amazing just how different our upbringings were ❤
My granddaughter has been better at - and helping me with technology since she was 4. I am not exaggerating.
As someone who works in customer service for a fairly big publishing house that also offers digital services, I can't tell you how many times I have had to explain to boomers what an "app" is. There's also the frustration from my side not being able to see what the hell they are clicking/tapping on their screen on their computer or tablet while on the phone, and then they just yell at me that nothing is working and it is all my fault. Even asking "what exact text do you see on your screen now?" makes them very confused. I swear, if I only could see what they are doing, I could solve cases like 90% quicker.
this older gentleman came into my restaurant the other day and wanted to see our menu on his phone. I told him to open his internet browser so he could type in our website. he proceeds to pull up yelp and point to our "menu" which is just pictures of our food that customers snap and that yelp takes and "creates a menu" but it's not accurate and the prices are wrong as well. I tell him to open internet safari, and what to type in to find our website. he once again opens yelp...I'm like dude...how do you search for websites, (I have an android and he has apple and I'm not tech savvy at all even at 29) he has zero clue what im talking about...I'm scrolling through the apps on his phone looking for safari and it's not there...I'm like ughhhh take a damn togo menu then hahaha
@@MrsMuffin11 turns out my previous lengthy response didn't post, so shorter repost:
I usually tell people to just go to the App Store or Google Play Store and download a browser. In your case either Safari or Opera, like you were looking for. But since I only can ask what the customer tells me is on their screen it is super frustrating to advice further, since I'm on Android. They usually mix up apps and general iPad/iPhone user interface. Like, "if I could see what the hell you're doing I could tell you what you are doing wrong but over the phone I have no clue".
@@JUMALATION1 I would but he didn't know what an app was. 🤣 I guess his version of "Googling it" was using yelp. and ya he was in front of me so it was easier but I was like dude, I barely know what I'm talking about and you are completely clueless I don't know how to help! 🤣🤣
So true!!! They absolutely ignore you and go ahead and give you the directions
The directions took me outtttt😂… “IM JUST GOING TO PUT IT IN GOOGLE MAPS I DONT HEAR A WORD YOURE SAYING”😭
“Just gonna RUclips it “
My grandpa won’t even touch netflix! 😂 he just has the history channel on 24/7
I lost it when he said Fandango LMAO
Dang I am not a boomer age, but I relate to him so much!!
my first thought for popping the hood on a tesla would also be the fandango app
My brother calls me the world's youngest boomer. I'm 33, but I feel just like Brad's character here.
That "directions" part!
Millennials vs Zoomers would be even funnier.
Cash is King was hilarious my aunt always says that the CBS thing reminded me of my grandmother who passed away thank you for making my day this was hilarious
Never would I have thought that gum could be so minty. 😆
My grandma would say “go southeast for 2 minutes” 🤣. Me going what direction is southeast 🤣
I'm neither, Gen X. I relate to both for sure. I love using TV apps and technology but I don't trust Alexa in my house. I don't want anyone listening to me!
Yup!
Ok the guy giving directions that I have no intention of receiving or retaining because I know I am just going to put it into the gps 10 seconds later was just too real
Brad is a real man! Lol
Lmao Brad is wearing Hey Dudes. I wonder if Trey knows….
"Dearest...Tom..." 🤣🤣🤣
As a millennial I feel attacked…and so do my boomer parents! 😂 😂
So many of these Boomer lines are too true. Exactly how my Dad would respond!
I hated having all those remotes.
Giving the directions was hilarious my mother in law does this to us!
I love how you incorporate subscribing at the end of your videos 📹 clever
The spittles..lol
As a forty year old...i'm really torn here. More boomer content please!
Brad did such a good job in this one.
The directions thing is so real 🤣
Francine... 🤣
Wow way too spot on!! Very real life
When you called the boomer "Grandpa" I was confused for a second because I'm an older millennial and my parents are both boomers. 😳 My grandparents were all silent generation.
Omg the directions spot on lol
You guys are hilarious!
The directions were tooooo relatable!!! I have NO idea what you're saying after I tell you I'm using gps 4 times
0:12,that was relatable cause my parents are boomers.
My Mom loves amazing race,my Dad loves NCIS,and my Mom likes young sheldon
“Cash cow” “cash now” 😄😄
Yesssss - when old people ask me “do you know how to get there?” I’m like “the address is on the website, right? I’m just gonna put it in the GPS in my car.”
Boomer Brad knows what’s up…Go Ducks!!!
Thanks for GenXers
I couldn't with people when they start tracking flight after the Queen passed 😅
You guys are my favorite youtubers
My grandparents got a fire stick and trying to help them navigate that was hilarious lol
Brad with the Benjamin’s. 🤑
So… I’m a millennial, but I definitely identify as a boomer.
I identify as gen x’er. I was born 1980. I feel the boomer in this one.
The Koops!
This is so me and my father in law, it's scary (specifically the hours spent explaining modern conveniences to him) 😆
Really love y'all's videos! Keep 'em comin'! God bless
3:18 Yeah, get a Gerber or a Leatherman and investigate it! Hehehehehhehe
Time warner😂😂
It is true that Big Tech is always watching though lol
2:43 The fucking blinding white light 😂😂😂 my grandparents have like 3 of those
Us poor GenX'ers are never represented. I guess we are just to level headed.
Bring me my finest ball point. 😂 💀
I'd love to see a gen x video!
Plastic cards in a physical wallet!? What a millennial 😆
There is only one inaccuracy, when the total is $20.00 or less they will only have $100 bills.
Gum could be so minty 😂
This is so accurate hahaha
My mom was just complaining about the power grid and electric cars 😅.
My 10-year old has got us watching Young Sheldon. It's a nice family show for sure.
Cmon y’all, survivor is on Wednesday nights!
"Alexa, pop the hood 🤣
Just today my dad spent ten minutes telling me how to get to an airport that I A) know how to get to and B) will STILL use Google Maps when I drive there in a couple days. 😂 it’s so real.
Daaaaaadddyyyy!
2:57 I hate when this happens. When you’re trying to explain something, and someone starts saying “oh is that a ___” or “so that’s a ___ you’re using” and I don’t even know what to say.🤣
😮THE QUEEN DIED?!
I laughed too hard 😂😂😂
When boomer tried to give millennial directions. So accurate! I be like, can you just give me the physical address? I will never understand why people are so opposed to giving a physical address 😂
