Op's post:
For example, my next door neighbor is a guy who's in his mid 30's. But he acts like a legit boomer. His Facebook is nothing but posts about how "Darn millennials wearing their skinny jeans and drinking their soy lattes" (ironic coming from a millennial), his lack of understanding that I don't want him parking all his shit in my yard which he defends as "I've lived here longer, I can park my trailers wherever I want", and his comments about how my tattoos are going to ruin my life. Anyone else ever meet non boomers who act like boomers?

Yes. A lot of people just turn into their parents, the good and the bad.
To avoid slipping into the boomer mentality it requires constant introspection and always questioning why you feel the way you do about things, rather than just forming an opinion and justifying it from there
Lots of people patting themselves on the back in the thread, and also the entire sub. Might be tied with childfree for being the pettiest sub on reddit.

That entire sub is basically "aren't old people super cringe you guise??"
Even worse is /r/millennials who are supposed to be in their 30s/40s by now and still act like they're in college.
All these cope subs are for people with severe arrested development.
It's nothing but impotently

The sub channels the essence of smug rage comics.
