Old farts of Hexbear, is there something about younger people that you don't get? [no punching down!]

OK this is my list. But first, I need to say that this isn't a condemnation of those into such thing. They just don't vibe with me.
- Cannot get into ASMR. I've tried. Often its women 20 years younger than me, rubbing their fingernails on hairbrushes. The intentional sounds they make with their lips and fingers are things that would make me want to change seats on a bus.
- Instagram. I was maybe the last person to get a smart phone. It was probably 2016. I'm just fully lazy to take photos of stuff.

Also I hate how every loser calls their guide the "ULTIMATE guide to X." Terrible fucking buzz word. If I see anything that calls itself the ULTIMATE guide for whatever I'm skipping it by default, fuck you.
the only good video tutorials are something like "serive and maintenance for sram s7 spectro.mov" and it's a guy with a native dialect you've never heard in your life
Me watching the same tut five times because the premier expert in the world is from Delhi and I struggle with that accent. Or, like, someone who clearly learned English as a second language and is all "I apologize for my poor english" in the description like they're not a goddamn superhero for being the only documentation on the entire internet for some obscure thing.
