Comment on Anon disrespects their elders
Gullible@sh.itjust.works 6 days agoThat’s what happens when you watch too many video games, you start disrespecting your elders. Now, back in my day, etc…
(I hope the joke is more apparent now)

I’m not certain, but I suspect that I’m older than you.

You could be, but the joke was to lash out in the sort of passive aggressive, out of touch obstinance that you can find in many older Christians in the US. I, as the (relatively) anonymous face, accept the responsibility and derision of playing the jester. You, as the audience, accept the responsibility of recognizing the group being emulated, and laughing at the fool.
It’s a form of punching down, sure, but I don’t respect socially bubbled bigots enough to care about their feelings, regardless of their age
