            I know what gooning is, and I know what a boss is. But I don’t see the connection there. What am I missing?

              I think this meme isn’t talking about the horny kind of gooning or the social kind of boss, I think it’s about like classic cartoon goons, like how batman would go foil the plans of The Penguin and his goons every saterday morning, and in these types of shows the goons would always just talk to the villain in short sentences like “ok boss” or “you can count on me boss”

      I’m seemingly also close to the grave, because I have no idea if those words are actual products or just made up.

    Most young people don’t know what’s going on either with all the celebrities. Everything has just become so niche. You could have a popular streamer with 10M+ subscribers and interview 100 people on the street under 18 and nobody knows who they are.

    I was playing a multiplayer game and the people in chat got such a kick out of trying to teach me the terminology they were using.

    They were so proud when I called one of them the rizz master accurately.
