But here's the thing... the SNL skit wasn't about who actually invented these words. The skit was about how they are currently being used. And as the mother of an appalled teenager, I'm here to tell you, Gen Z has some seriously flakey wordage that sounds an awful lot like what I was hearing on SNL. That's not to dispute the words' origins -- I'm not arguing that at all, in any way whatsoever! I always assume anything that sounds cool originated from people who aren't white, because, well, let's be honest, white ppl just aren't that cool. But! Regardless where it starts, cool-ness is the only place where the trickle down theory actually works: All cool things will roll downhill and eventually be picked up for use (and abuse) bysnlbiggest dorks. #FACTS But again, that's not what the skit was about. Sidenote: I think we have to take a moment to applaud the fact that people finally realize Millennials are "adults" now and that Zoomers are the new kids. Seems like only last week I was stil

It's that weird place between acceptance versus growth, and I don't think most of us have figured out how to balance these two opposing forces. If I like the way I am, that can lead to complacency and stasis. Conversely, if I admit there's room for improvement, that can lead to self-doubt and a lack of confidence. For myself, I try to accept myself in such as way as that I'm gathering data, with no negative judgement or hate; just like a list of pros and cons. I have nice eyes and a fantastic laugh. I also have acne-prone skin and I snore at night. I use mascara to emphasize my eyes and I laugh as often and as loud as I want. I also use a strict skincare regimen to control my bad skin, and I recently visited a sleep clinic to get my snoring under control. I'm overweight, which isn't healthy, but I'm not really working on that right now because, quite frankly, I just don't give a shit about my body. But I love my hair and toenails, so I've recently started dying my hair fun colors and

It's fucking travesty that people who Choose not to get the so called "vacxine" are being attacked for their Right to choose not to receive it. Rights don't end where fear begins. #mybodymychoice.

I'm not particular about which vaccine I got, but yes, the vaccine itself (regardless of brand) is absolutely a personality. I know too many anti-vaxxers and their avoidance of this public safety measure is a fucking travesty. I'm well within my rights to disdain those who choose to skip out due to pure ignorance. This is not a "both sides" issue. Get the vaccine -- whichever one is available. The risk of covid far outweighs the risk of any side effects of vaccination.

I'm Gen X, my older child is a Millennial, and my younger is Gen Z (they're 11 years apart). We all three use reaction gifs, the crying laughter emoji, and goofy chat-speak. My daughter and I both wear our hair parted on the side, and neither of us wears mom jeans. Pretty sure we're all Boomers in this house LOLOL 😂

I'm that old person who doesn't know anything about tiktok 😭 After Facebook I got on Twitter and Pinterest, but I just didn't want to try to keep up anymore so I never got on snapchat or Instagram. Somehow I'm surviving and thanks to podcasts and YouTube videos I still somehow manage to know what's happening -- even on platforms I've never visited. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I was all set to be offended but nah. That video is sheer ART. Didn't plan to be a Lil Naz fan, but facts are in: I stan.
