Stop being an old person. Just because things are different doesnt mean it's worse. It's the same in a different way. I had pogs and power rangers. Kids now have memes and tiktok. Whatever.

Nah the tik toks are worse. We didn't have "brain rot" when we were young

[–] [email protected] 52 points 5 months ago (1 children)

yeah we did. we always did. maybe not as much but we did. I'm not sure when you grew up but look up any ytp on youtube and tell me that isn't brainrot.

That television will rot your brain!

Watch out! Your kids are reading horror comics

Don't bother talking to them and reading a comic with them to see what it's about or why your child likes it. Just get mad!

Problem solved

The lead paint chips and leaded gasoline and micro plastics and PFAS would disagree

I disagree, but I see you've made up your mind on the situation. Just saying, it's costs you nothing to let other people have fun and enjoy the things they enjoy.
