I choose to believe that he's named after the Battlestar Galactica character, not the notoriously selfish generation that refuses to relinquish power or otherwise listen to anyone younger than 55 lol

There is no doubt that he's named for some cool reason, not because of the generation. Which is why I think my reply was funny. If he really was named “Boomer” because the owner thought it was the best generation or some bullshit, it wouldn't be funny, it would be sad.
