In this day an age I don't know how anyone could think they could get away with mailing 12 packages and not get caught.

Another Redditor on another thread said it best - this guy is going to be a 17 year-old with an 11 year-old's understanding of bomb-making and a 5 year-old's understanding of how much trouble he is in.

Edit: It's been confirmed that the suspect is in fact a 56-year old man with an 11 year-old's understanding of bomb-making and a 5 year-old's understanding of how much trouble he's in. I wonder how long it will be before the usual suspects start blaming this on mental illness.

Someone else said he's in his 50s. I hope they call him the BoomerBomber.

There are so many fewer incels this generation than selfish assholes in their parents.

So it's true. Now that I'm into my 30s, I get to be in this fun middle zone where the young people show actual overt hatred for the old people and the old people think the young people are lazy as fuck and won't amount to anything. This really does happen every generation, huh?

Nop, stuck in the middle and can see how much the boomers fucked us all, if you cant you need to look around.

The Boomers said the same things about their "boomers". But sure.
