      Yeah, that’s what every generation says. I’m impressed by slang that stands the test of time, like “cool.” It’s been around for 80 or so years!

        Yeah, that’s what every generation says.

        And most of them are right, it’s why slang dies so quickly. Gen Z/Alpha are just particularly inept at it, probably from having their brains fried by social media.

          Isn’t that what we’re both doing right now, getting our brains fried by social media?
