I'm a mid-to-older millennial. My elders would say shit like "What? You don't know how to use a gramophone? You young whippersnappers are completely worthless." And I find that behavior absolutely abhorrent.
If you were here in person, I'd offer to spend some time burning some CDs. I've still got a computer with some pretty decent optical drives laying around. I can probably even scare up some blank discs. We'd find some music, burn it to a disc and then try it out on my old boom box.
I suspect they were trying to rib you, and you were too young to grok that yet.
If you're an asshole to a kid ironically, and the kid thinks you're an asshole, you're just an asshole. An entire generation wasn't taught that, and look at the world they built.
Baby boomers got burned more than Nero ever did!
