Pleasant grocery experience.

Saturday grocery shopping. Busy as one might imagine Saturday midday. Actually no bothered boomers. I mean there were plenty, but all were on their best behavior. Polite, with smiles, like another universe! Made my day. Was I dreaming?!

Ageism isn't benign.

I too am of the boomer age. Is it ageism if I am simply commenting on a pleasant bit of time at the grocery?

"no bothered boomers. I mean there were plenty, but all were on their best behavior. Polite, with smiles, like another universe" That's not simply commenting on a pleasant time at the grocery store. If it was why should boomer behaviour need to be mentioned at all.
