I went Southbound to deliver a meal to a customer in an apartment building, then turned to a parking stall that was on the Northbound side to park in front of it. Boomer said that was illegal. Well, why does no cop seem to care then? And why does no one else from other generations care either?

Most people just figure you don’t care and wouldn’t listen to being corrected.
Maybe trying to keep you from getting a ticket next time.
What advice are you looking for here?
INFO: were you parked against the flow of traffic?
Maybe he has dementia or Alzheimer’s, like me. And his filter system is disappearing, like me. And maybe he’ll be dead in 5 years, like me. Does that answer your question? Like me?
Good for that guy if you did something stupid, illegal or dangerous — or all three. Go entitle yourself.
It’s because, in 1948, our entire solar system was passing through an oort cloud that broke off from the zarsparrow446 nebula; Earth got hit particularly hard as it passed through an intense pocket in late June.
All babies in utero during that hit developed a very strange ability. They instantly knew if something was illegal or not. Many became police officers or lawyers, and a few became criminals, using their ability to skirt the fine line between legal and illegal.
But a very small percentage had a second ability.. they could not only see the legality of any action but could also see the future of any person committing an illegal action .. These individuals will often interact with those they see committing minor crimes in order to watch their future change in real-time. somtimes with ulterior motives.. but usually just to fuck with them, mess around with their future in minor ways.
Most likely, he just got a kick out of watching future you come running to reddit to cry about it.
He looked like he was born in 1948? Can you explain how you deduced that? You do realize that there are aholes of all ages, don’t you? You’re kind of being one yourself. Should I condemn your age group for being like you?
I think you are just generalizing here. What proof do you have that only a “Boomer” would tell you this? Or that no cop would ever care about you doing this? There are opinionated jerks in every generation. And if what you did was really illegal then saying no cop would ever care about you doing it is just wishful thinking on your part.
There are also people in every generation who believe that when someone does something that they know is wrong or unlawful, it is their responsibility to point it out or warn them. Sometimes they do it inoffensively. Other times they don’t
If what you did is illegal and you know it is illegal, then it sounds like you are trying to blame this guy rather than accept you did something wrong. It may feel better temporarily to focus on someone’s bad attitude, rather than your wrong behavior. But that eventually catches up n with you.
The only advice I would give to you is to try to stop being ageist. You will (hopefully) be old someday too.
I ( early 60’s) have parked the way you describe and have had younger people warn me I could be ticketed. Sometimes people are just trying to give you a heads up.
