John Roberts, the 64-year-old Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, made a meme reference for the ages when he invoked the phrase “Okay, boomer” during oral arguments in a case about federal age discrimination and civil rights.
According to Vice, Roberts was discussing a hypothetical example of potential age discrimination during oral arguments for Babb v. Wilkie when he dropped the meme reference. While the news organization maintains that the court “killed the meme,” they nonetheless note that Roberts drew laughter with his example.
