Today is the anniversary of one of the great events in modern history. It's been 7 years, and kids today will never understand the absolute hilarity of watching Professor Robert Kelly's preschooler STRUT into his office while he's doing a Very Serious Interview on live TV. Watching him close his eyes while he tries to hold it together, watching the baby roll on in next, watching the mom dart into the room like a rocket and drag the children out while trying to glue herself to the floor so she's not seen. Comedy perfection.
Everyone has had Zoom meetings now, everyone has either seen or been interrupted by toddlers during their own meetings. But at the time? Unprecedented.
Link to enjoy rewatching it

Forever annoyed when people my age act shocked when kids think YouTuber is the most appealing profession
You were born in 1985, Jennifer, you wanted exactly what the rest of us wanted: to star in a sitcom with a theme song where everybody looked at the camera when it got to their name in the credits as if to say "life is pretty crazy, right?"

Then the skull said: "Kids today, eh?"
"I blame education," said the raven.
"A lot of knowledge is a dangerous thing," said the skull. "A lot more dangerous than just a little."
Terry Pratchett, Soul Music

Been seeing a lot of "kids today don't understand _____" going around, and it brings to mind the memes about tumblr showing its demographic age.
It's almost as if some people have forgotten that change is inevitable and your lived experiences aren't everyone's lived experiences, and therefore the context with which they process things will be different.
Someone lacking the context you have isn't inferior, it's just different. Things being different might be a threat to you in some way, but I can't understand the ideal still being perpetuated that it's those "kids today," that are the problem.
We know this cycle goes on and on. We've mocked it. It's so wild to see it alongside memes about boomers freaking out about kids today not being able to communicate because they can't read and write cursive.
It may feel like an end to 'modern civilization', but it's not. It probably feels like that because it's an end to our demographic being centered in a way. The things that we think of as iconic, aren't what's iconic anymore. Some of our experiences aren't as relevant to people living with new iconography. It's no one's fault. It just is. Even when these posts seem tame, the replies will be a long list of people making up imaginary youngsters to tear down to show their own superiority in comparison...
It is not a good look. Want those younger people to take an interest in the media you deem classic? Perhaps relay to them the context you feel they are missing... I see so many posts on here of people just like giving the whole ass history of a knitting machine or a specific stuffed animal found in a parking lot 20 years ago or some shit -- and people finding it fascinating that weren't aware of it before. But if they aren't interested in the context...? *shrug* It's not the end of the world if people want different things from their media. Even if you feel like it's the end of an era... that's fine. That's why it's an era. It's a time and then it ends. (Ultimately I think this is a fear of becoming irrelevant. Which is valid. That IS scary. But like... it does not sit well with me that so many people's answer to that is to lash out at the world for it continuing to change and grow, and specifically misdirecting that fear/anger onto a whole generation of people.)
