Slang - Figurative woke—being socially and politically awake, or aware.longtooth wrote: Wed Nov 27, 2019 6:39 pm I know I don't do well in 21st century America.
What is a Woke please.???
Thank you. I figure I am socially and politically awake and aware but not at all like the Socialist, digressive inventers of this word.
In the race to be the most socially progressive person possible, now a single women can avoid a man and not only have a child, but have a child with a sperm doner who is HIV positive. Thus showing she does not descriminate against men who have lots of sex with many partners of any sexual orientation.pushpullpete wrote: Wed Nov 27, 2019 8:24 pm I'm really not sure I understand the point of their efforts. Sperm donor banks typically offer such benefits as brains, beauty,
health etc... Other than a life itself (which may/may not be healthy, I don't see an upside. What benefit are they offering,
and that I'm missing, that a regular sperm donor bank does not ? I admit to sometimes being a little slow on the uptake.
So let me introduce you to another term that you might hear if you happen to make a similar statement in public It is: "OK, Boomer". It is meant as a sarcastic response to anyone who doesn't want to be "woke" or buy into the a host of other "stuff" being heralded by the targets of your comment. It is a reference to the fact that the Baby Boomer generation does not think like nor accept the current social posture. I just wanted you to know that if you hear it, you will be "woke" enough to be offended by the insult.longtooth wrote: Wed Nov 27, 2019 8:14 pmThank you.

Thanks for the heads up. Did not know that one either. But for sure I are one. Daddy was WWII and Korea Combat Vet. so I am definitely a Boomer.chasfm11 wrote: Thu Nov 28, 2019 9:03 amSo let me introduce you to another term that you might hear if you happen to make a similar statement in public It is: "OK, Boomer".

At 40 years old because of my way of thinking, the woke youth would call me a boomer.chasfm11 wrote: Thu Nov 28, 2019 9:03 amSo let me introduce you to another term that you might hear if you happen to make a similar statement in public It is: "OK, Boomer".
