What does she mean there was a "generational shift" that led to people burning CDs? Back in the floppy disk days, everyone was copying floppies—I remember when my grandfather bought a Mac to use at home, and immediately his friends at work loaded him up with copied disks. Which generation is she thinking of that wasn't pirating a ton of software?

Generational shift means kids bad and stupid. That's all.

A tip for millenials: Whenever you cringe at zoomers for their dumb tiktok dances, remember the badger song and realise every generation is stupid and cringe.

Or just search millennial humor on TikTok and die. Recently tried watching SNL with the family and I cannot understand that humor at all.

Man, any of that comedy central pop comedy stuff... Older movies too, Adam Sandler, Chris Farley... I don't get any of it and that stuff pretty much was my time. It's like people just acted really stupid... There was not any comedy to it, it's just feels sad.

You don’t like Chris Farley? Not all of his stuff but some of it is funny in Billy Madison

Same, I think some people find some things funny and some don't and it isn't all about generational cohort
