It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Why do millennials use that type of language? Adulting, did a thing, well that happened, etc.
It's grinding my gears into quarks
Brain formed during the cringiest time of the internet

"So... that just happened!"
Just wait until the 40 year old zoomers are still using the same phrases. That will also be cringe.
Future rest home resident telling the CNA taking vitals that they got that Ohio rizz
Hate infant speak
Millennials must return to posting online like they're writing an email.
It's the only way.
Fuck that's me 😭
"Grown-ass adult (usually man)" also pisses me off, especially when used as a peacocking attempt against supposedly not "grown-ass" adults. It instantly sounds tryhard to me.
Trickle down linguistics. That phrase was a staple of AAVE and white people stole it and made it cringe. A tale as old as time
choosing to blame joss whedon for this one
im a millennial and i hate it too. i think some mfs just watched too much parks and rec and the office and now this is just how they are
You aren't a wholesome chungus man adulting? Bleh I feel dirty.
perpetual infantilisation by boomers coupled with early exposure to unregulated internet damaged us.
Leave us alone, bagging out generational groups for silly and harmless quirks is cringe. Making fun of millenial slang is just as dorky as millenials mocking gen z haircuts as if we didn't do skinny jeans.
