        Not the person you’re replying to, but in the same boat, and I for one dipped out at “yeet” and “yoink”

          Yeet is from the Vine era. Gen Alpha has more recent stuff. You know, the whole “skibidi ohio fanum tax amogus rizzler fortnite gyat” thing.

          Not a gen Z but I’m actually a fan of both of those words. It’s like a forceful put or get.

            Now I kind-of want HTTP verbs for those.

            YEET /api/v1/submit HTTP/1.1
            Host: example.com
            User-Agent: curl/8.6.0
            Accept: */*
            Content-Type: application/json
            
            ...
            
            YOINK /api/v1/list HTTP/1.1
            Host: example.com
            User-Agent: curl/8.6.0
            Accept: application/json

      Your brain finishes developing around 25 years old. The older Gen Zs are turning 25 now. OP is joking about unironic emoji usage being an old person thing.

      I wasn’t trying to be unkind. It’s just Gen Z whose frontal lobes would be just finished developing, that’s all.

    Frontal lobes are cool but all that white matter you grow in your 30s is where the good shit happens

        No, it’s when you become aware of too much shit and enter the next level of needing to learn more coping skills. It’s like suddenly growing legs and realizing there’s a whole world out there and people who never grew legs are like woah miss bigshot with her LeGssss ooooo so SpEcIaL think you’re so FaNcY so WoKe and then form an army of undeveloped against you and they win and you just facepalm for eternity as you scrounge for ways to help them grow legs but they now think growing legs gives you autism or something stupid.

        Ignorance is bliss is no understatement. I’m so tired.
