And what the hell are all supposed to mean? Also, get off my lawn.
EDIT: I’m talking about “cold”, not “cool”. I’m seeing it being used along with snowflakes and freezing emoji, sometimes even saying “ice”.
This gets more and more true with everyday. I understand less and less of the world around me.
I wonder how Gen Z wojld react to something being reffered to as “all that and a bag of chips”.
And none of this shrinkflation crap. The bag of chips used to be huge!
I recently had someone explain to me what “And that’s where I came in” meant.
I expect to explain to people why we say “roll down the window”, or what the save icon is, lol
What? Roll down your window is self explainitary. You put your hand on the window crank…and…huh. I guess I haven’t seen one of those in years…
Ok, but the save icon, that’s because of the floppy disc. You just put your floppy into…the…huh. I guess no one uses floppys anymore…
…wait, am I old???
“Cool” has been around for a lot longer than calling things “fire”. Things will continue to be called cool, until the next fad rolls around, and then it’ll go back to being called cool again. It’s been used since the 1930’s.
You thought you were slick, didn’t you? Rad? Tubular? Mean?
Fads come and go. Some are better than others, I am personally partial to “slick.” Fire will fade away but cool will return just like it always has.
