What an absurdly divisive title. As if every single boomer is buying an elevator right now specifically to spite other generations. Why not point out the more obvious demographic that is actually doing this: wealthy people. It was nothing to do with age and everything to do with how much disposable untaxed income you have lying around.

30 1 ReplyI had an elevator in my 4 story townhouse when I was 26. It was however really slow so I just ended up putting a keg of beer in it. Mobile beer!

3 0 ReplyMost kegs just pressurize the beer, and use that for the extraction... But some use a hand pump mechanism, or an external CO2 tank.
