Hold on, is "OK Boomer" a thing? "Boomer", yeah, but "OK Boomer?? Hold on I'll check with Mr. Google....... Oh, okay, it's just a cute "Tik Tok" way of dismissing old people. So the millenials, who think criticizing anyone should be illegal and punished by life in prison, feel comfortable criticizing old people because, well, they're old, and therefore bad. And, BTW, boomers are also fair game for coronavirus apparently. Cuz, like, they're old. DUH !!! As long as young people aren't affected it's okay. :D I don't recall if the hippies had something similar, or just a general implied hatred of old people. |

Thanks. I didn't find it disturbing at all. I didn't understand a word of it :D Speaking of young people having a natural instinct to hate and dismiss old people, if you want a laugh I encourage you to look at the Wikipedia (or even see if there's a youtube version you can watch) of a 1968 (yes, that was over 50 years ago...) movie entitled "Wild in the Streets". It's about young people deciding that they can run government far better than the old establishment folks, so a bunch of 18+ year old hippie teens take over Washington in a coup, and one of the hippies becomes president. And at the end of the movie, they're surprised that suddenly a group of even younger teens (13 year olds) decide to perform a coup on the hippies because THEY are too old. Pretty hilarious. And no, I have no idea how I remembered that. Here it is: |

This has to be obvious satire or YT would have banned him on the spot. If you want "disturbing", find those who are serious about the same >:D Back on topic, cat videos are obviously the new substitute for soap operas and sportsball. Now, somebody tell me, how could anyone possibly watch that? :scared: |
