Sometimes I wonder if things like the hexbear bouncing cat emotes are a bit twee and cringe, but then I see the aesthetics the other side has run with...

      In this context, I will say I have never seen nor heard any adult speaking like this, haha. My deepest sympathies to you if you know people like this.

        For Halloween a few years back, a married couple that are childhood friends of my mom did a couples costume: the lady stuck LED lights on her chest, the guy put on deer antlers. They did a "deer caught in the headlights" bit all fucking night.

        That's the kind of white boomers I know.

          that sounds like it would have been funny for all of two minutes at absolute maximum, stretching it out over an entire evening sounds absolutely torturous

            But what if that is the bit?

        I’m surrounded by them and not a single one has ever done anything like this either (as far as I’m aware lol)

        I will say that white midwestern boomers are usually pretty jovial. It's just that their sense of humor is incredibly reactionary and if you call them out on it, my god. They throw temper tantrums that put toddlers to shame.
