Shrieking ringtones
This tweet might describe your parents to a tee. The room will be in complete silence when suddenly a boomer’s phone will start playing the music of its people. Hopefully, it’s a catchy tune, but most of the time, it’s the standard Android or iOS ringtone that’s blaring at full volume.
The worst part is that they don’t shut the sound off right away. They’ll squint their eyes and stare at their phone’s screen for 30 seconds before deciding what to do. Here’s a suggestion, boomer mom and dad: keep your phone on silent or answer the call right away.
