We were copying bands to be edgy. Now explain broccoli.
They’re copying YouTubers and TikTok stars.

Not understanding and not approving of it are two different things. Millennials love our quirky/scary younger siblings, and I won’t hear otherwise.
Can confirm, as a millennial I love zoomers and their humor. On god fr fr no cap.
I will never shit on zoomer humour because I used to watch YouTube poops
Don’t do this if you’re not ironyposting please. It’ll be taken that way if meant for humor
Tf are you talking about my dude?
Side note: how in the ever loving fuck did the creators of Invader Zim convince the Nickelodeon execs that it was a “kids show” - and not just once, but for two seasons?
Are you talking about the same Nickelodeon that showed Ren and Stimpy and Rocko’s Modern Life?
Nah nickelodeon had weird shows at the time, Zim was tamer than a few shows, what boggles my mind is that someone in nickelodeon even agreed to TALK to Vasquez given his portfolio, like, some exec in nickelodeon read a bit of JtHM and went “yeah, this guy got something the kids would like”
Rawr
XD
I was that age in 2006 and that style was strange to me back then as well
Same. Even as a metalhead adjacent to them, they were still a strange breed of kids. They were harmless though. I couldn’t stand the kids that shit on them for entertainment.
It’s kinda weird and heartwarming to be 30 something and see that style making a comeback. I hope they live as weird a life as we did back then.
Same, was in high school '04-'08 and maybe 1% of the kids dressed like that. Most of us just wore jeans and t-shirts, and had short haircuts.
The only ones I don’t get are the horrible high waisted mom jeans and the curly haircuts on dudes. Those pants look terrible unless you have an absolutely flat stomach and even then, yeesh. The haircuts, I have no idea haha
I’m in Scotland, mullets and bowl cuts are fucking IN right now…it’s mad. Some things should just be dead and buried…
The kids these days look like they are basically just bringing the scene kid look back to me, maybe I’m just old
I really really want to know what my kids generation is called. Post z - born in like 2017. What’s that gen?
Gen Alpha
TO BE FAIR… That was a minority demographic.
What were some of the majority demos wearing though?
Yeah you’re right but like… I think the majority were low rise sort of bell bottoms and tight shirts. This would be like picking on the weebs and then bringing it back 10+ years later.
I could never work up the nerve to talk to these girls, and I don’t think I missed out on much.
Don’t know about the western countries. But this is definitely not correct for India
It’s very American lol
IT WAS ME! I WAS THE TURKEY ALL ALONG!
I don’t know if Lemmy has the equivalent of r/blunderyears but I’m calling it right now… the next 10 to 15 years are going to be peak embarrassing photo time as zoomers start turning 35 or so and they post their photos when they were late teens or early 20s.

Alright, fair.
Gotta wonder what he looks like now
