I kinda want to make videos of old boomers using all the alpha slang to watch the chao ensue.

Old bloomers are in their late seventies man. They’re not doing much at all these days.

That’s what would make them using the slang correctly so funny.

How are half of these “Gen Alpha phrases”? The edging Wikipedia article was created in 2004, for example.

It’s mainstream and also sometimes used outside of the strictly sexual context now

Simply means that those terms/phrases are en vogue right now. Generally spoken generations are usually heavily influenced by the generation before them, popularizing things that someone before came up with

Nah. It just means that you have a healthy relationship with the internet and those who recognize most of it should go touch grass.

In my 40s and this isn’t that daunting. Since I try to keep up with what people who want me dead (right wing) are lying about yo a degree, that feels way more stressful than mostly innocent slang. Dogwhistles are what I get annoyed at having to keep up with.
