The generational gap between me and people my own age who use a million abbreviations. Don't get me wrong....I use some of them too, but some of y'all be out here trying to abbreviate a whole sentence into a few letters🤣

The generation gap between me and ppl of my own age

#WOWWWW #I did NOT come here to be called out like this😂😭#Tumblr decided to hit me with the most unprovoked personal attack I've ever gotten #Of which there's been quite a few from this hellsite #The struggle is real...and apparently I'm not the only one who feels that way #I legit feel like Steve Martin's character from that movie 'Bringing Down the House' every time I hear someone from Gen Z talk #'What did you just say?'😂#It doesn't help that they changed what emojis mean either #*old lady voice*#Back in my day a skull meant something bad! You whippersnappers!#*shakes cane*#get off my lawn!#Sometimes it seems like Gen Z is speaking a foreign - wait #WAIT #I regret to inform you all that I've just come to a disturbing realization #What if...what if this is how our parents felt when we developed OUR slang?🤔#(this applies to all generations)#Remember how our parents would be so baffled when we talked? With the 'I have no clue what you're talking about right now' look?#And we would just sigh in exasperation? Like it was SO OBVIOUS what we were saying but they were just too 'out if touch' to understand us?#Oh no #Things have come full circle you guys #We've become our parents😭#Now WE'RE the ones out here not understanding slang while the younger generations look at us like 'Keep up old timer'#Well this is some bullshit #I didn't need to come to this realization today #But since I have I hope all of you are distraught by it as well because misery loves company #Guess it's time to break out the bingo cards prune juice and argue over who gets the last pudding cup while we stay up until 9pm🤣#That's about all we've got to look forward to now that we're senior citizens #Rip to all of us - it was nice having our youth while it lasted😂#random post
