Seriously, people past the age of 30 should not be on the internet. They should be on the golf course or playing shuffleboard or rotting away on a retirement ocean cruiseline somewhere.
As an elder 40-something, I agree with you. Problem is, the economy doesn’t. I’ll be working until I die. In the meantime, I need the memes to help keep me numb to all the shit going in around me. Please don’t take those away from me. It’s all I have anymore.
A lot of us are, yeah. Even with young whippersnappers like yourself fizzing around on your electrified skateboards and what have you, I’m pretty sure the average age here on Lemmy is closer to 40 than 30 🤷
I’m pretty sure we’re mostly disgruntled Millennials and Gen-X’ers.
Anyhow, it looks like TikTok might finally be heading towards some sort of ban or regulation in the US, so maybe it’ll get killed by the Boomers but in a different way.
I skipped those, but I’m about to ruin whatever new platform my kids get in to.
As is tradition.
Your boomer parents? You’re 40 something?
That would be my age.
An old person? On my Lemmy? Gasp
On lemmy? A platform made by those who miss the “good old days” when reddit was good? Full of old people? Impossible.
65 here sonny.
67 here kiddo
How excited will you be when you reach the “nice” age?
I’m already nice.

I do enjoy a round of golf. And have you ever played shuffleboard? It’s quite fun, especially on a cruise.
Shit.
Wow, you can fuck right off!
* now, where did I leave my reading glasses? *

Implying we aren’t mostly disgruntled boomers here.

Dont forget gen Z tech workers
Get outta here, y’all were in middle school yesterday.
Gen Z are like 20-30 years old by now
Some genZ here too :) moved from Reddit to Lemmy
Nah. If you started skipping trends already you are free. Just use what you like lol
Well I happen to like embarrassing my kids so…
Carry on. 😆
💀
I hope that was not serious.
Why? It’s a time-honored parenting tradition. And one that doesn’t involve child abuse.
Boomers and child neglect - name a better duo.
Boomers and pulling the ladder up behind them.
I’m told that the joy of embarrassing your children is the main upside of parenting, actually.
Like being Michael Scott/David Brent of The Office on purpose and they have to be the long-suffering employees of Dunder-Mifflin/Wernham Hogg.
Because no matter how much you play the oaf, some fool still allowed you to be in charge of something important 😁
I can’t wait to log in to the newest gamer platform only to engage in trash talk with a select group of boys. Three of them, to be exact.
“I fucked your mom!”
“Dad, go away…”
