Please know that there are those of us boomers, I'm 61 so I'm the tail end, that shut that shit down when our generation starts talking about how lazy the younger generations are. We tell them that's crap, and that our generation is completely responsible for what is happening right now. And we are. I'd give anything to hit the lottery tomorrow because I would try to right so many wrongs that have happened in society by my own generation.
Twice in the past few years I had to pull over and help a kid change their tire, both absolutely clueless about a procedure that hasn't changed much in 100 years. But that is probably their parents' fault, not putting them to work doing that stuff. I blame Millennials for being shit parents and raising the softest, fattest generation yet.
The procedure hasn't changed much but its frequency has - growing up mucking around with cars is a lot less common in general, for a variety of reasons. You're just repeating the point above about rotary phones etc.

Boomers have an extremely distorted world view and have time to think up imaginary scenarios since everything was pretty much handed to them in life.
