Implying nerds (myself included) no longer incessantly quote Monty Python at each other.
history is divided into the pre-python and post-python era
Don't forget Python 2 and Python 3

No, based on Unix
New slang is no excuse for bad grammar. This post is a mess.

Yeah but what your dad didn't talk about was how the generational connection to the meme has been slowly bled out by social media companies, replacing genuine nostalgia for manufactured social humor.
That is to say, boomers felt more connected to their memes than they did to ours, and more than we did to ours.
Likewise, we have more connection to the memes of our youth than Gen Z supposedly will/does to their memes.
And of course, it's a bunch of B.S. because how do you quantify nostalgic connection! We didn't watch Skibidi toilet, so how could we call upon it's nostalgia the same way that we do for F7U12 or Trollolol?
The only thing I could potentially agree with about my own claims here are that there is a small shift in the amount of relevance of each generations cultural memehood, where as each newer generation comes, there is more and more content to draw from. Not only do current generations have Mario and Sonic memes, they also have Skibidi and social memes, so I could see there being a bit of a "limit" on how possible it is to like all of the memes equally.
Basically, in 20 years, will Skibidi be looked back at as fondly as Rage comics? Honestly, probably. But how about all of the other 49,000 memes?
The best meme survives, so what will be nostalgic for Gen Z?
NEE!! Shrubbery!
I'm ootl when it comes to the Ohio thing can some one explain it?
Ohio is just used as a replacement for weird or cringey. That's really it. Ohio rizz is what they call it when someone is awkward, weird, or creepy while flirting.
Wait, so if a middle school teacher is using Gen z Slang, would that be called ohio cringe, or is it like only creepy cringe stuff?
You ask the important questions. That is a tough one. I imagine that to most gen alpha kids, an adult using their slang would be considered Ohio behavior, but it probably depends on how Sigma they consider the teacher to be.
I'd assume middle school teachers are fairly cringe just for being middle school teachers but if one is trying to learn the new lingo, at least they're trying to communicate.
Then again, I was a Trekkie misfit in the 70s and 80s when we didn't have TNG yet, and was commonly regarded as skibidi ohio.
Also, to be fair, Ohio was cringe and weird in the 1960s, especially after Kent State and CSN made Ohio into a folk song, and it's lit if that's where Alpha vibe gets its cred.
Oh, well, having grown up in ohio and moving away at 18 or 19, I completely agree with the way it is being used here.
It's Ohio's vibe. Boring, dull, uninteresting, a bit creepy. If you've got Ohio rizz, you have terriblely boring charisma
It's true though
i thought tfwnogf stood for that face when
