Older gen alpha are 12-- but all of the references are from current social media influencers. You can’t even “officially” access you tube until your account says you’re 13.
Or those with supervision who’s parents just don’t care. I’m on the older end of Gen z and definitely used YouTube before I was that old. My parents never really cared as long as I wasn’t watching anything weird on it.
Sunko - a derogatory term for someone who holds strong beliefs in something despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. One who is subject to the sunk cost fallacy fallacy.
Example: These sunko boomers still think trickle-down economics are legit. Jokes on them, the only thing trickling down will be their piss down their own legs when the underfunded state nursing home caretakers ignore them for 3 days straight after we refuse to subsidise their geriatricity.
Everyone stutters one way or the other, so check out my message to you; as a matter of fact, I don’t let nothing hold you back, if the Scatman can do it, so can you!
I am 51, so Gen-X, but I have been a skater, surfer, gamer and chronically online most of my life (BBS old schooler!). In other words, my speak has always included current terms which I use unironically. Except rizz. Rizz is just cringe AF.
There is no such thing as generational slang. There is just slang.
Seriously. Can we stop this ridiculous obsession with “generational” comparisons, please, and the click bait that goes with it? Let’s instead start learning empathy and stop trying to force fit everything into an arbitrary category. Can we really not, collectively, as a species, grasp nuance and the eternally changing state of everything?
nassim taleb calls it “over-platonification,” expecting everything to meet some platonic ideal. it is absolutely pervasive. this is another great example of it
Iaranis, I’m not speaking to you directly. Instead, I want to expand on your eloquent and pleasant message.
It amazes me how quickly some are willing to accept age related generalizations and reject generalizations based on other criteria like race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc. I’ve been around long enough to understand that all of it is a weird control mechanism. I’ve known people nearing the end of their days that spent a lifetime advocating for all the right things. That should be enough for folks to understand that we are all immature, flawed, and prone to bias; while capable of fostering positive change.
Don’t marginalize anyone, young or old because of their age. We all get the same short life to try to live to its fullest.
