    There was this “funniest game show answers” video from the golden-age of Youtube that my wife and I each had to pause twice in the course of this 15 minute video to get up and pee, the first time we watched it.

    This was before she had kids and before I got old. So neither of us had any excuse.

    Even my 2 and 4 year old get it. Their first inside joke with me is “Cheese?! I can’t put cheese on that, c’mon already” where we add things “What is this, a pizza?! C’mon” and they’re just laughing away.

    Now they’re doing it to each other, 2yo: “Cheese on a car?” and 4yo: “You can’t put cheese on that! It’d melt and get messy! Whattaya talkin’ bout, pfft c’mon!” throwing her hands up like a disgruntled New Yorker.

    If you don’t get it though, that’s ok. You’re likely not 4 years old. Lol

      I’m totally here for Gen Alpha’s breed of humor. Beats the pants off zoomers and x’ers… Probably because they’re mostly millenials kids, and millenials are funny as fuck.

      Boomers were funny in their time (at least if you were a cis white man), but their jokes aged like milk and they can’t meme. Except George Carlin. I mean, he’s not really very good at meming, either, but at least his jokes were timeless.
