Reading Gen Alpha and Z comments is akin to reading Chaucer. You sometimes can get the gist but man you have no idea what they are saying

“I can’t figure out what generation you are”
I’m from the generation who know what it means when on Saturday mornings female superheros would turn into an elephants in order to inhale their twin brother, who had just turned into a puddle, so they could help their space monkey defeat the evil villian

OK Summer you may take my hat, you may take my waistcoat, but you’ll take my jacket and tie out of my cold dead hands. Well I mean I’m not going through the afterlife without a hat or waistcoat like some sort of nudist. OK so you’d have to pry it all out of my dead hands.

“When did you decide you were more comfortable wearing suits?”
”I believe that was when I was born and they tried to swaddle me in white cloth and diapers and I cried for days until they realized I would only accept worsted wool pinstripes.”

“How do you go to the bathroom with all that on?”
”Um, this is a wool suit. The last time I had a problem like that was when I was wearing a suit of armor with a codpiece. Now THAT was difficult.”
