I thought this was going to be about the dude in turkey that feeds stray cats on YouTube.

That's the joke lol. I constantly call any young person a millennial. I'm a 29 year old myself lmao.
I'm 37 and gay, grew up with the internet and most of the slang is familiar to me. But the circles I run with lean heavily on the queer side.
Using age as a reason why you're not familiar with culture doesn't really work. I side eye when I see people use that excuse with music as well.
L-I-T-E-R-A-L-L-Y dying as we speak! Totally putrefying rn.
I didn't know all these words and phrases came from the LGBTQ community. Wow
Did the stuff in the OP originate there as well?
Which will you be more embarrassed about later. The fact that you may be a parent or that you did whatever this bullshit is?
Making some joke about being The Last of Us while using wrestling gifs seems to be about right.
Yes. And I oop is a popular meme in the queer community. Just overused.
I feel old. Literally the first time I've heard either, I thought it was both original and funny. But I'm probably way out of touch lol
So I've done the sksksk laugh for a while now and always called it "sissing" (a term I got from Trandoshan laughter in the Star Wars EU books, but I digress). I have a pretty loud and distinctive laugh when I find something genuinely funny, so the sksksk was for moments when I found something funny-ish but not laugh-out-loud. I had no idea it was a thing at all, or from LGBTQ+ culture.
Never heard of "And I oop " before today though, despite knowing of Jasmine Masters from Drag Race.

You are millennial. Accept your label and the fact that boomers and gen x will group you with young people who are not millennials
I'm not really sure what you mean here. You don't think people can be out of the loop about pop culture because of their age?
It might just be that I don't have many queer friends at all then. I only have a few, the majority of my friends are straight guys so I'm not really in any queer circles. :(
Sure, if you're 40s or older. We have 20 somethings in this thread acting like they're pushing 70 with their dramatic responses.
Unrelated, but his response is a virtually perfect counterpoint to the whole thing. It's like slamming into a wall of uncommon sense.
I know one day I'm going to be completely out of touch. I just hope when that day comes I don't also lose the ability to detect humor, even if it's not aimed at me. I also hope I don't become irrationally angry at said humor and post how SOCIETY is falling apart because of it.
The Uranus joke is a stupid, cringe, unfunny joke. And it's from E.T.
"sksksksks I oops" doesn't have E.T., just all the other things.
No. Not queer culture. Just this thing.
Please.
And hopefully you gain the ability to know when people are just being dramatic and theatrical for theatrics sake. I don't actually care if this meme continues on.
It's terrible, but y'all having fun with it, and that's all that matters.

The gays are contributing to the downfall of society. Quick organize a straight pride parade.
This was me in my teens. I'm happy I had a group of straight buds who didn't care I was gay and accepted me completely. But as I got older I wanted a group of guys I could talk to about stuff that was too personal for my straight buds.
Plus my gay friends have better taste in music. Props to the straight friends for getting me to be a concert queen tho.

A reminder this comms hatred of gay culture led to popgaf being killed on the old forum and never being able to recover here
We were too busy dealing with existential stress to enjoy our youth
We idiots. The kids are having lots of fun these days.
I try not to care, but the fact that we have such heteronormative dominated discussions has SERIOUSLY hurt the potential of Female and LGBTQ+ communities that could have grown here.
And this thread is a reminder of it—it's like talking to a fxcking wall. But pull out Simpsons/Wrestling/Seinfeld and it's somehow comedy genius.
Clearly, the ONE thing we need more of is another Marvel or Star Wars thread.
But queer humor? Gross! Kill it with Fire! Annoying!
It's exhausting. Because people say they accept you. They say they are supportive. But then when you show them who you are, suddenly it's too much, too annoying. They don't understand. They don't want to understand.

Fuck off with this shit. Finding dumbass crap like this unfunny or cringeworthy doesn't mean someone is homophobic or anti-LGBT. Put the fucking pitchforks down.
Popgaf were ahead of their time.
They had so many haters. So sad.
bye.
When people throw insults at others because they're using slang or lingo specific to that community, it's incredibly homophobic. At the very least diet homophobia.
I truly hope you don't call yourself an ally with that shit.
