    You literally used the term “dunk on” like three comments ago. A bit hypocritical to criticize the use of slang, don’t you think?

        It’s actually you being ageist and not understanding how languages work. Your complaint is identical to Boomers complaining about how Gen Xers and Millennials talk just with updated tech. It’s a cycle that goes back many generations. The lack of funding for education actually has little to do with it .

        You do know that you sound exactly like your parents, right? And their parents said the same too. Every friggin next generation does this, this is not news, man.

            Again, a lot of your descriptions sound like kids being kids. Let them. It’s their generation, they have to figure things out just like we did

            On the “can’t be offline anymore” I’d agree, but that is a different problem altogether
