A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Some of that isn't limited to gen Z. I've had older coworkers make buzzer noises for correct/wrong (like those on a gameshow)
Assuming the Scooby doo one is stuff like "ruh roh", that specific trend might be recent, but people have been doing silly voices for a while
Although a lot of it could be tiktok trends (or vines for the millenials)
Yeah i'm an early millenial and i got in trouble as a kid at a trading card game convention because i was playing the x files card game, which involved asking the other player yes/no questions and the guy demoing the game mistook my no buzzer noise for a yes buzzer noise and lost because of it.
Wtf is a yes buzzer sound?
About 6 years ago we were sitting on the beach and a larger wave came in out of nowhere that went say 20-25 feet further up the beach to where we were sitting, I grabbed her and my phone and said ruh-roh as she realized and stood up, didn't have time to grab the small Bluetooth speaker we had and it got soaked and I grabbed it a few seconds after as the wave retreated. It isn't a term I say often, but I think it was something I did back in my early twenties when there was the possibility of kids being around. Instead of yelling "oh shit" like my brain wants to.. 37 year me goes turns into a cartoon dog
Recently I've picked up some 25-30 year olds.
OOP makes employment sound really weird. Like picking mushrooms. Or contracting a disease.
Zoinks!
Jinkies, even.
All those 35-year-old gen-z folks are certainly weird.
I'm 37 and my ~24 year old coworker and I just speak in memes to each other for most of the day.
Mr-cheesy ain't so breezy!
23 skidoo, daddio!
daddio
"daddy-o", right?
I hate how they talk about people like property they own.
To shreds you say?
