crapping on the Latest Thing Kids Are Doing is one of the early phases of transitioning into an out of touch adult.
every new group thinks they're gonna be young and connected to youth culture forever. when they run into the first thing from younger people they don't get, they feel compelled to explain why "it sucks actually" rather than letting go of their youth status.
Always thought this was a goofy ass compulsion, just let the kids enjoy things?
They're right in that the things kids enjoy usually do suck, but wrong in thinking that doesn't apply to the stuff they liked when they were kids
crapping on the Latest Thing Kids Are Doing is one of the early phases of transitioning into an out of touch adult.
Does this mean zoomers are becoming out-of-touch-geezers at the seasoned age of ~21 years old?
I remember being 21, back in the early 2010s, I was never even thinking about what younger kids were doing, nobody was.
"YOLO," said Millennials, and "yeet," the Zoomers cried
"Rizzler gyatt fanum tax," the Alphas then replied
And lo, there came a shaking as an ebon spire rose
Upon it writ the tongues of men, their generations' prose
And from the sky a thund'rous voice called out unto the stone,
As golden letters glowed upon its surface, newly shown:
"RIZZLER GYATT FANUM TAX, SIGMA OHIO SKIBIDI"
And all beheld the words embossed theron in great timidity
With shaking and with wavering voice, the grim refrain began
As all the generations sang the verse at its command
Their weeping and their running sores did nothing to delay
The chanting of that fevered song as night succumbed to day
But rose that morn a blighted sun whose light scoured like a flood
The sky was rent asunder and the rivers turned to blood
Their flesh peeled off in sickly strips, their bones were rendered bare
And still they chanted ever on, the words they uttered there
Until bone and flesh and earth and death were all forgotten things
And still unbidden, undesired, the blackened spire sings
Around it wind the whispers of the souls in its captivity:
"rizzler gyatt fanum tax... sigma ohio skibidi"
Skibidi is pog ong frfr
Oh shit, it finally happened... I can't understand the internet anymore. Time to go see if I can start investing in a timeshare for a casket.
"Skibidi is poggers I swear to God for real real."
People used to say "s2g"...
I like how you didn't translate it beyond "poggers"
I feel like it's been in the internet lexicon for long enough I didn't need to elaborate. Did almost use an emoji like 
I think some of it is self reflexive cringe. We know it's just like the stuff we were laughing at a couple of years ago, and it's painful to think that we weren't always as enlightened as to understand that Obama impressions and the Adam Friedland show are the highest form of humor.
It's like when Minecraft went from being that game for babies into an icon you can't criticize. Every generation hates on something the youngest one likes for whatever reason.
I'm pretty sure Minecraft was a thing for adult nerds before it became a thing for babies
This is true
Wait what? Zoomers hate skibidi toilet? I thought zoomers were the reason skibidi toilet was a thing
Gen alpha is the reason skibidi toilet was a thing, zoomers “hate” it ironically because it’s not really any different than 2016 cod trickshot edits
I refuse to accept "gen alpha". If Gen z is late 90s to 2000s, shouldn't "Gen alpha" be in like fifth grade at most? Do they even count as a distinct generation yet? Are we gonna get Gen Beta in like two years?
It's such an arbitrary and contrarian concept, just scrap the idea of namwd "generations" altogether.
The youngest millennials are like 26 (1997 is the cutoff per the idiots who came up with it). People are really jumping the gun, as the youngest gen z is like 10 years old.
It's like the memeification of generations. Like kids that were born in 2007 saw all the zoomers distinguishing themselves from millennials and now they want in on calling people slightly older than them "boomers".
Seriously I'm 30 how are there 2 generations with distinct media tastes fighting already behind me.
gen alpha is killing the apple sauce industry with their selfish preference for chocolate pudding cups
Zoomers are now in their "I'm like 20 now and I feel like I'm ancient" phase where they have to ironically hate on the new Gen saying boomer shit like "kids these days aren't as good as we were"
Being to cool for stuff you liked as a teen is the real cringe.
Truth. To truly become based you must turn off your cringe inhibitors and fully embrace yourself
To be cringe is to be free
I don't even know what generations are anymore apparently
Doesn’t matter, all you need to know is no generation is more cringe than millennials
Yeah, I like how "Boomers" is basically anyone born between 1900 and 1985, then it's seemingly a new "generation" every 5 years after that.
Isn't gen alpha like 6 at this point how do they even have something for zoomers to hate.
Skibidi toilet guy got milkshake ducked fwiw, he's a horrible racist
Do you mind elaborating?
Skibidi toilet was killed by a rival white supremacist gang in the streets of São Paulo.
I won't claim someone as a zoomer if they don't like skibidi. Shame upon them
Is not any different than the dumb gmod idiot box shit me and my friends used to watch so no hate
That or the slightly earlier Half-Life: Full Life Consequences or Idiots of Garry's Mod
I LOVE SKIBIDI TOILET I USED TO HATE IT BUT MY PARTNER SHOWED ME THE LIGHT I LOVE SKIBIDI TOILET I LOVE SKIBIDI TOILET ILOVESKIBIDITOILETILOVE....
I slashed my own eyes because as long as I follow skibidi toilet I can never be blind.
I am a zoomer who teaches alpha, and except for Bluey and Miraculous Ladybug, all of their touchstone media is stuff that was big before my time. They all up in Mario and Sonic and Frozen and that. When I was a kid, we had like iCarly and Codename Kids Nextdoor and Avatar. Now its like there's nothing unifying for the kids to watch. Kinda sad.
it's anti imperialist
I actually really like Skibidi. Really like how the toilets (poop, most essential and base humanity) are engaged in people's war against the panopticon.
