I feel dead at 24
I like to use 1920s slang to even things out.
Well, got to skedaddle.
When did I get so old

Is now a bad time to point out that all words are made up? If your generation got to do it, there’s no reason to begrudge any others’.

Jesus Christ… I’m old enough to have kids that would have said yet… where’s my ibuprofen?

Up to 24 people are sympathetic. You will find a lot of people that will (correctly) say “you’re young. Just enjoy your time you don’t need to worry about where you’re headed. It will come to you”. Wait until next year. 25 is when that changes to “what the fuck are you doing with your life”. Basically what I’m saying is you’re not old. Until next year.

Then there’s 26, when in the US you get kicked off your parents’ insurance & you can go fuck yourself! 🤗

I’m old enough to literally not care one bit what the youngins do or if I really understand them. I don’t need them to be my clone to live them. They got their thing just like I had mine. Circle of life.
tatann@lemm.ee 11 months ago
I’m 40+ and I keep inventing words with friends, why blame the young ones ?
(I mean except for the fact that they listen to shitty music and ours was better 👴)
Hudell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 months ago
You probably just forgot about all the bad music you used to listen to and now compares all the new stuff to the best from your time.

That was supposed to be an old grumpy man joke

That Lo fi shit kids listen to is such trash. I know im an old man now but damn, even the 2010s had more bearable music

…what’s wtong with lofi? It’s background noise that helps tons of people focus.
ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
I don’t know what happened circa 2005 where radio stations banded together to only play the worst music but there is still good music around. It just doesn’t see play in avenues you’re exposed to
(This extends to streaming)

Meh. The churn of brain rot on social media platforms has become so desperate I don’t even try to figure it out anymore. Too many vainglorious famewhores all trying to coin terms or “challenges” making it a massive churn of ever-shifting garbage to steer views their direction.
klemptor@startrek.website 11 months ago
I mean, before the stupid challenges it was Jackass; before that it was America’s Funniest Home Videos. Dumb entertainment has always existed.
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 11 months ago
AFV edited the shit of its show. People didn’t get hurt, there were no politics, it was silliness and “family” entertainment.
Jackass was all about stupid humans hurting each other or themselves. But they didn’t imply or tell you to engage in the stupidity.
The social media tools are actively and willfully destructive. Doesn’t matter if it’s telling outright lies about politics or the sciences, or “challenging” people to do risky or damaging things.

The earliest urban dictionary entry for yeet was made in 2008…

And it was a dance move performed on bikes. Literally pumping the chest up and down with arms spread wide (like flying an airplane), while riding a bicycle, in a group.

13 of those terms are not new at all lol glad to see there’s at least some overlap between generations.
Now if we can just psyop them into using “rad” and “sick” again 👀
NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Older generations need to start inventing slang again to noogle the kids.

If you also make up a way to pronounce them, a grammar and potentially a culture to go with it, you’ve just made a conlang
