So I'm 100% certain boomers don't understand rudimentary comic tools like deadpan and sarcasm. I created a fictitious thought exercise: "how could I explain this comic to an old person" and my brain locked up and has to be rebooted.
Why do boomers have a hard time with sarcasm and deadpan, though? They're very common devices so shouldn't an older person have more experience with them? I find myself getting more sarcastic and more deadpan the older I get, did boomers just do that for so long that they wrapped back around to not understanding it?
