    Skibidibackrooms?

    I think. I’m probably too old to understand what gen alpha will consider childhood nostalgia.

      They’re basically braindead. They can’t even remember 5 minutes ago, much less last week. They’ll be 23 years old like “durrrr nustalga? what’s that? help me out chat”. Stupid smug little pricks.

        Saying an entire generation across the whole of planet Earth is “basically braindead” is a bold claim… and factually incorrect. I’m not here to argue this point - your assumption is flawed.

          I was having a bad day yesterday and needed to vent. Sorry not sorry. My brother has a stepdaughter who is gen alpha and while she can be annoying as fuck, she’s a good kid and I know that most of them are not ipad zombies. But it’s fun to punch down, you understand that right?

      The search term you need is elsagate. A whole bunch of cheaply made youtube videos featuring popular characters in bizarre situations. They were made to game the youtube kids algorithm and tons of tablet kids watched them.
