A dismissive reply younger people use when an older person drops a take that sounds stuck in a black-and-white TV era. It’s not about literal age as much as mindset: ignoring climate issues, mocking protests, or acting like college still costs $300. “Ok boomer” is basically the polite version of “your worldview expired three updates ago.”

“Just work three jobs and stop complaining about rent.” “Ok boomer.”

Used to drag someone for being overly sensitive, easily offended, or convinced they’re uniquely special while melting at mild disagreement. Different sides of the political aisle fling “snowflake” at each other like it’s dodgeball: your outrage is noble, theirs is fragile.

“He said both parties are clowns and nobody’s fixing anything.” “Lowkey based.”

The little sound or icon confirming you landed a shot. Your tiny dopamine treat.

“I swear I got a hitmarker…”
