Title: Am I the Asshole for Starting a Boomer Catwalk War at My Local Walmart?

Tom Kane, a 74-year-old self-proclaimed “sartorial vigilante,” is going viral after allegedly starting a war in the frozen food aisle of a Missouri Walmart. According to a now-deleted Facebook post (which we totally have screenshots of, don’t worry), Kane was tired of seeing “sad, beige-clad boomers” shuffling around in Crocs and sweatpants. So, he donned a full, bedazzled cowboy suit, brought a boom box, and began voguing down the dairy aisle to a remix of “Cotton Eye Joe.”

TL;DR: Old man starts fashion police riot at Walmart, gets banned for life.

The supposed “war” escalated when a 62-year-old woman, Karen (yes, really), told him he was “making a scene at an appropriate hour for decency.” Kane allegedly retorted by spraying her with a can of whipped cream, shouting “Fashion is pain, Brenda!”

The internet is, predictably, on fire. Half the comments are calling him a “hero for the geriatric queer community,” while the other half are screaming about “waste of taxpayer-funded dialysis.”

But here’s the kicker: Kane’s son, 45-year-old Kevin, made a TikTok begging his dad to “please just go to bingo and let the rest of us die with dignity.” Kevin says his dad has been on a “cowboy pirate aesthetic kick” ever since he got a hip replacement last year.

So, AITA for thinking this is the most unhinged thing to happen at a Walmart since the “snapping turtle incident of 2019”? Or is Tom Kane the messiah we don’t deserve but sorely need? Discuss.
