:cringe:
Idk why adults always feel the need to parody youth culture. No matter what generation, it's never funny.
It's how adults cope with the fact that they become increasingly less relevant while young people become more relevant with each passing day.
Note that happy, secure adults who aren't afraid of getting old don't mock teenagers like this.
Musk's admission that he has asperger's during the monologue was like his prepackaged excuse for the show not being funny.
get doge off my tl for fucks sake
I want the crypto bubble to burst so bad
Crypto will continue booming and busting while rising over time on average so long as enough people think it’s real or have a vested interest in insisting it’s real
does the media think it's cool to shit on gen z now? are they done shitting on millennials?
SNL just putting on loudspeaker that they hate everyone that doesn't speak like a brunch liberal.
Also am I wrong for feeling like this sketch is mildly racist? Like the fact that 90% of the phrases they're using originated in Black American slang before they were used by gen Z. The joke just seems to be "haha they talk different" which in that context changes how it comes off. I dunno maybe I'm reading too much into it.
Yeah these actors are writing words written by a writer who learned from teenagers in their life who learned them from randos on the internet who learned them from black people for the most part. There’s a reason it sounds so stunted. It’s like a cultural game of telephone
Spectacular accumulation, or I guess in this case just cultural appropriation
Bruh big facts this was cringe. I'm being deadass I should've left this on read, or said say less when I saw this. On gang we 'bout to pull up live, you gonna catch these hands for making me watch this. I thought you were a real one sis, I vibed with you and I stanned you but you got me pressed right now. Bruuuh no cap I took an L seeing the whole thing, even when I thought it was sus for a while.
audience laughs
You can tell none of these people have ever talked to a young person because they're just throwing in words and phrases that make no sense together. "I'm sorry but that's looking like cap, but if anything changes I'll pull up"? Like gramatically sure that works, but no one uses those phrases that way.
Do I dare subject myself to this...
That was awful lmao. Shame because I think Mikey Day can be funny too 😔
Peach doesn't even have an Italian accent but they gave her one anyway. Do your Mario research you fucking frauds.
Yeah Peach represents the British upper class while Mario is the post war Italian immigrant labourer who sacrifices his body to be accepted by a racist system rather than rejecting it and overthrowing it
My respect for an artist has never plummeted as hard as it has for Grimes.
its so hard to explain to people what a breath of fresh air she was in the indie scene at one point.
we are going to be seeing reaction gifs from this episode for many, many, any years to come. Embrace hell world.
Okay but I've honestly laughed here and there in the past. This is so so so bad.
Also why is Elon such a shifty weirdo. Stand still man you're making me nervous
Interesting how very similar to but incredibly less funny this is compared to the californians sketches.
As a Californian, those Californian sketches were spot on. Especially how much they talk about traffic
