Boomers will just stroll into conversations and state that the minimum wage when they were young was the equivalent of $31.15 and then wonder why everyone hates them.

I don't know how accurate using the official inflation rate is. My starting wage in 1973 was $1.65 which equates to about $12 today, which seems low.

Reminder that Boomers (whether literal or spiritual) are biologically incapable of understanding "adjusted inflation"
3.35 was from 1981-1990
Adjusted for inflation that's roughly $8-12/hr.
