Wait, he's over fifty?
I knew he's older than he pretends to be but I still expected him to be closer to my age than my dad's.
Can't even "OK boomer" him properly anymore. A millennial might at least take offence but the only bit of generational emotion a mid (phrasing intended) GenXer like him has likely neglected to suppress is euphoria from someone recognizing gen x was ever a thing.
I'd think going the other way would be more effective. Boy, son, kid. Insult the ego, inflated sense of importance and authority. Call his philosophy immature. That would rile him.
