OK, boomer. Ready for a trademark application war?

The popular phrase, which has mostly been used by teens and millennials to make fun of older people for being out of touch, has taken on a life of its own.

Most notably, 25-year-old New Zealand lawmaker Chlöe Swarbrick used the phrase to dismiss an older member of parliament for heckling her while she spoke about the country's Zero Carbon Bill.
Its growing popularity has led to a number of trademark applications that have been filed for its use -- two of which are for TV shows.

However, Fox is not the only one to file a trademark for the phrase.
On October 31, a man named Kevin Yen based out of New York filed an application for a brand of clothing.
The day after Fox filed its application, a Pittsburgh-based company filed for a brand of stickers and decals.
The day after that, producer William Grundfest filed a trademark in his name personally for a TV show. Grundfest's trademark was for a series of live stage performances about "generational differences."

Well, you had a good run, "OK, boomer."

I'm glad you died before I got sick of you.

 

[Token Weeaboo]

This meme survived a week longer than pewdipies meme review on it. That's got to be a new record.

 

[ThePurpleProse]

And just like that a meme dies... and no one gives a shit because it was used too much tbh

Tell me about it.
It was funny for like a week or so but then it blew up and is now cancer.
And if it's not the mainstream bullshit it's how overused it is.
Why address someones point when you can just spout a glib "Okay Boomer" and move on?*
*Awaits someone responding with Okay Boomer.

this is gonna age like that wine i left in a cabinet for 3 years

not very good

 

[Bread Fetishist]

What if this is all part of an experiment to find out what the fastest way to kill a meme is?

 

[The Great Chandler]

This is what happens when millennials steal zoomer memes.

 

[mindlessobserver]

Boy golly. This will get the hip young meme hungry youngsters to watch our programming! Word

 

[Dolphin Lundgren]

So it's going to be the opposite of The Great Indoors? I'm guessing it won't get another season just like the former show.

 

[Travoltron]

I'm glad corporations stole away the meme. It was retarded in the first place.

 

[Lurkio]

Really, it's been popular for, what? Two weeks? Maybe three? That's already double the life expectancy of the average meme and these people want to make a show out of it that probably won't launch for at least a year?

Maybe they're hoping that in the time it takes for the show to develop "O.K Boomer" will be one of the few interent jokes to have gone full circle from being a meme, to being old, to being popular again, then dying again, before finally just being semi-popular slang? But that only happens like, 0.01% of the time, so they're taking a huge gamble here.
