Dude it's just a funny name that rhymes, get over yourself.
I really don't get the hate over the term.
It was ok to use "Boomer" as an euphemism to call someone old, but make it about games that often don't take themselves seriously and are a throwback to when gaming started to grow massively, and it sucks?
