Yeah I'm on the same page as you - I remember we had some little differences here and there but it was nothing like it is today.

They're super proud of it too - the zoomers around me like to talk about it and explain their slang and I have to bit my tongue because I feel like if I was honest and told them 99% of their slang is dumb as shit I would just sound like the old 'get off my lawn' type.

Though that would still be preferable to a dad in my orbit who has gone all in on the slang of his alpha kids and just sounds like the 'hello fellow youth' type.
