I don't if it's just me but a lot of weirdness was then part of various subcultures, especially music ones. Now it has been decoupled from those onto tiktok. Not saying good or bad.

That's how I try to keep things in perspective, by saying - was I any different?

Yes I think it's all stupid and annoying, literally everything about tiktok which the kids are soooo involved with, minecraft, fortnite, however they're dressing these days. Stupid and annoying, all of it.

But hey there was a time when my dig-pet was the most important thing I owned, my beanie babies were "an investment", could easily play Halo for 12 hours straight, I wore giant jnco jeans with chains on them, and listened to Limp Bizkit.

So, was I any different? Nah, it's the same.

I'm old and crotchety. Can someone supply an example of the gen z aesthetics referenced in this post? All I can think of is big ass eyebrows, ultra bold multi colored eyeshadow, and crop tops.
