For men, s-style Hawaiian and bowling shirts have returned to runways. The stereotypes emphasized in the Facebook group happen to have struck a particularly resonant chord with younger demographics, predominantly millennials, long sensitive to being labeled entitled, lazy, wildly selfish and feckless by their elders.
Perry explains that the impulse to satirize boomers may be a reaction to negative stereotypes younger cohorts face about themselves — a kind of generational tit-for-tat.
Eric Fredericksen, a Gen X arts professional, joined thinking it would be fun to satirize the generation he grew up in the shadow of.
Saliently, some boomers also have joined, and enjoy, the group. Yet rather than take umbrage, perhaps the lesson to glean is that age-based stereotypes are largely unhelpful. If we would just realize we all want the same things in life and in society, I think we could start to communicate better.
See for yourself. One other thing. The ants must be eating gunpowder from the munitions down there, or something. They exploded when hit by a flamethrower. One of us was using a laser pistol - same thing. Bullets seem okay, just don't hit the artillery shells. Loyal's been working on some kind of weapon to use against them. Maybe you should check with him. Mother Pearl has lived at Nellis from the start, and has the wisdom of her age. She said this day would come, and that any savage to reach our gates should be brought to her.
None of those planes ever returned. Additionally, despite the best efforts of a man named Mr. House, some of the missiles that struck the greater Las Vegas area impacted Nellis.
As a result, Nellis was not an attractive site for scavengers for over a hundred years after the war. Fifty years ago, a group of Vault 34's dissidents struck out on their own and started using Nellis as a base. Over a long period of time, they eventually decided to call Nellis their home. They learned a great deal of information from the records at Nellis and used that information to open the weapons storehouses at currently unknown locations called Area 2 and the Hawthorne Army Depot.
The result of their efforts was an enormous stockpile of heavy ordnance, artillery, and small nuclear weapons. Due to the tribes paranoia, hostility, and excessive reverence for explosives, the New Vegas locals started calling them "Boomers. No matter who approaches them Mr. While the Boomers' attitude has kept away trouble, all of the major players around New Vegas want to get on the tribe's good side.
People simply have no idea how to accomplish that. As far as all intelligence indicates, the Boomers have a clean water supply from Lake Mead, power from solar panels inside the base, and thriving farms that they've learned to develop "the hard way" over the decades they've been in the base.
Once, the NCR attempted to shut off the Boomers' water supply. In the months that followed that experiment, no one has tried to approach the Boomers, which is just how they like it. Our self-sufficiency is a point of pride. We draw water from Lake Mead, solar arrays provide power, and we grow our own crops! Certainly not! Personal armament is the foundation of social trust and responsibility.
We haven't detonated any atomic warheads since before I was born, but besides that, to heck with nitpicky restrictions! Mother Pearl, our Eldest, wishes to speak to you. When we reach adulthood, we serve in whatever capacity we are best suited. The wasteland is no place for children. That is why we do everything we can to teach the children from birth to defend themselves and serve the tribe. No one knows exactly how long it's been.
It may be that no one's traded with them or even spoken to them that entire time. If so, they're sitting on one hell of a stockpile of ammunition The perimeter is guarded, with spotters in towers directing the artillery fire. They must have extraordinary vision. Some of my scouts were targeted at extreme distances. So no, I can't tell you what to expect inside the base.
No one's been inside it, except them. They've tried to contact us before, but I'm not interested in trading with greedy savages. This presents a bit of a problem. Jack isn't allowed to leave Nellis, and I doubt she would make it through the artillery alive. We supplement our diet of grains and vegetables with soy and legumes for protein.
I should start a reloading class for the children to learn how to make ammunition! I think I still with Loyal and Jack for repair knowledge.
We're down to a five-year supply for our launchers. If we had spare parts, do you think I'd be asking you to fix the damn things?
That's rich. No, we ran out of spares a while back, and Jack and I have been doing our best to patch the arrays up as best we can. Sadly, we're at our wit's end. There have to be spare parts somewhere around the wasteland, but I just don't know where to direct you. You may have noticed we don't get out much. All you need to do is attach the deployable ballast to the plane.
Some of my robots will carry a remote activation station out to the shore. Attach the ballast, hit a button, and they'll handle the rest. The plane floated up. Seemed to be intact. I'll transmit instructions to the robots to start packing up the plane to bring it back to Nellis! When the fighting starts you can count on our air support.
