The gen that brought back mullets and serial killer glasses think my fashion choices are cringe?
I’ll allow them to wear what they like and we’ll both shut up about it, thanks.
Agreed, but I for one love the mullets
You are objectively wrong!
But folks are allowed to like things that I don’t.
You do you.
Quit trying to impress children. Who gives a shit what their preferences are.
Gen Z is almost 30
Uh, who cares? Use what you want people
99% of the time with this shit no one’s heard of it because it’s not happening.
Reaction gifs were always cringe. Emojis are as well, the only cool emotes are text smileys >:|
Spoken like a true autist
If any GenZ want to know why I do uncool things even though you’ve attempted to educate me: it’s because doing so makes you physically cringe like an ice cube down the spine and it’s funny.
I think a lot of millennials are “button-pushers” (aka enjoy pushing people’s buttons) and love that kinda stuff; and if Gen Z wants to continue to get along with us, they’re gonna have to learn how to not get mad when we intentionally press their buttons. Like, the 90s and 2000s were the best time to be a button-pusher because trolling at that time was an art form and form of internet comedy. Sure, trolls could be infuriating, but you knew they were fucking with you.
Nowadays, the term has been appropriated and redefined to refer to someone who spreads propaganda. Pushing someone else’s buttons is now frowned on, not just irl but online as well. Sure, there are shitposts, but there’s sort of an expectation that you’re meant to ensure everyone is on the same page and not leaving people clueless. It’s not like trolling where you’re intentionally trying to mislead someone to fuck with them.
I still hold by the ancient family tradition of burning trolls. Push buttons at your own peril.
“She had it coming” she said calmly, licking her thumb and rubbing ash from her cheek. “She refused to stop mentioning the game.”
