I have a relative staying over right now and he has to have an opinion on… everything. Examples:

“That’s a nice watch… How much did you pay for it? That much? That’s too much money”.

“That meal looks good… You should add some cheese to it”

“What size is your bottle? Don’t you think it’s a bit large? it would be better if it was smaller”

“That would be better if they didn’t add sugar to it. They put too much sugar in it.” Me: “There’s no added sugar”. “That would be better if they didn’t add sugar to it.”

LIKE BRO???

    Maybe it’s just my experience, I’ve noticed this to be a near universal Boomer trait. It’s as if they are incapable of keeping an opinion to themselves and worse yet, act upon this impulse with the expectation that whomever they’re speaking to will be grateful for it and if not it is somehow a personal insult.
