Boomers are how theyre better than you
Gen X is dad jokes
Millennials is life sux
Gen z is absurdist like HONSE
~~Juan's been around since before gen z could speak. That one's millenial humor that gen z adopted and extrapolated.~~
Looks like it popped up in 2015, so not as old as I remember. ~~Still can be argued that it's too old to be gen z meme.~~ the meme juan was 2020, though, and originally posted to Instagram, so it's genz
Every time I see this I think about what a nice antenna that is.

I like how this just skips x
We never seem to skip the bit where a gen Xer points out genX erasure.
what is gen alpha on
what are the cool hip kids memeing
I won’t get it but tell me like I would. Make me feel young again
67 is still around. Skibidi toilet is just about dead. Not sure if there's much else.
My 9 year old nephews told me months ago that 6-7 was already lame.
Which makes sense. If a kids' meme is at a point where adults know enough about it, it's probably already passé. That's just how this stuff works.
monty python were boomer humor. there's not a lot of air between "honse" and "the fish slapping dance"
That was British humor specifically.
See Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett for more. Even Rowan Atkinson.
Okay, I guess they were all boomers, but still!
Monty Python is timeless humour.
You SAY that, but I don't see anyone trading manuscripts on FTP sites like it's 1995.
