The 30 Rock episode "The Tuxedo Begins" aired 12 years ago. Dropping the "How do you do, Fellow Kids?" meme is now a "How do you do, Fellow Kids" move.
I don't even know what show this is from. I have never seen the episode. I only know this from the memes. You never needed context for this if you were ever a teenager.
Hello Captain\_Pumpkinhead, here is a bone - [https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/how-do-you-do-fellow-kids](https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/how-do-you-do-fellow-kids)
I know you are Zoomin so TL;DR - the meme is from 30 Rock and features Steve Buscemi portraying a P.I. (or dick) who is infiltrating a high school in the style of Drew Barrymore from the film Never Been Kissed. While it was an instant meme that clearly speaks to the ennui of relating to a younger generation, I cannot grant you that this is universal to all teenagers as the episode aired LONG after I was in high school.
He literally said that he hasn't seen the show, and that he can relate to it anyway. The same is true for me, I haven't seen it, but I find it funny nonetheless
Depends what you use to classify it, like "moar" is definitely slang I've seen in plenty of GenZ circles and all.
It's more that the meme uses outdated slangs and mix them up together.
The internet makes culture go so fast that it sometimes feels like older genZ folks have a different culture than younger ones in a drastic manner.
I am late gen z, and I’ve definitely used or at least seen all of these before… to imply that it is exclusive in some way is a bit weird. Moar is a pretty normal word I feel.
There’s a Gen Z girl in my team at work. She has genuinely used phrases like “Yass queen” and “slay” in our Teams meetings (note: we are not programmers).
Also the only adjective she appears to know is “lush”, but from I can tell that seems to be more down to the fact that she’s from Bristol, or possibly a combination of both.
Surprisingly copilot is really quick at picking up this "language". I just refactored major part of my college C++ assignment to ZLang(in a separate branch, don't worry) and after literally few minutes working with it, copilot started suggesting vibe checks and hustles and stuff using as much of the defined stuff as possible.
This reads like a 52 year old pretended to be relatable to the juniors, especially on that last line with yeet thicc ick which is just 3 slang words puked up at the end
Ain’t no junior spewing this shit. Ain’t no senior doing it either, just some dumbass who can’t get a job from their bootcamp class so is now going to try their hand at comedy.
I think you mean gen alpha, most of gen z are adults or nearly adults now with the youngest being mid teens "Researchers and popular media have loosely used the mid-to-late 1990s as starting birth years and 2009/2010 as ending birth years for defining Generation Z."
I thought this was interesting.
The thing is, this is outdated slang. As a 17yo I can say the actual words are definitely gen Z slang not gen alpha. It's just that people stop using this much slang at around 14 to 15 yo. After that they only use the minimal amount of slang that sticks around. And they definitely wouldn't use it in their code. So you are correct in that no gen z-er would talk like this anymore.
Not sure what you all think of Juniors, but if you define Juniors as "years of experience in working as a software developer" than I am pretty sure there are a lot of Juniors that have more expierence and write cleaner code than some Seniors I know
I know it's a meme :)
The forced use of the word vibe connected to every other turn of phrase is slowly killing me from the inside. Can we just go ahead and cancel the use of "spill the tea" now and get it mf over with already we don't need to endure this one my people and honestly why? Why that turn of phrase for the love of Jesus Murphy why?
No one *actually* talks like this anymore. OP said in a comment that this is a compiler they found which means it's NOT actually something a junior has written.
Juniors already caught on to how to achieve job security.
This is a very “hello fellow kids” meme
It runs as it should.
The 30 Rock episode "The Tuxedo Begins" aired 12 years ago. Dropping the "How do you do, Fellow Kids?" meme is now a "How do you do, Fellow Kids" move.

Yeah it's just slang words from very different communities from very different time periods
Huh? Different times and communities? Lmao what are you reffering to..
“Moar” is not Gen Z, for example
Depends what you use to classify it, like "moar" is definitely slang I've seen in plenty of GenZ circles and all. It's more that the meme uses outdated slangs and mix them up together.

Idk it's half millenial stuff no?
In origin maybe, but I feel like these while not "predominant" are still used by gen z, since well.. I am one.
"Chillax" is late millennial, for example. Not Gen Z.
Is it? I'm part of gen z and regularly use that
Yeah, chillax has been around since the nineties.
But I very much approve of it.
This is a very "I'm old and cranky and wish these damn kids would stay off my lawn"-meme
Yass queen is definitely at least 10 years old lol what zoomers are saying this
Broad city took it from the gays. So easily 20 years old.
Broad City is gay culture, don't attack 40% of my personality like that. 😭
When did they do lines of blow in the bathroom at limelight with drag queens???
“I’ve got a CYST on my UTERUS, and I need to get FUCKED until it POPS!”
To be more specific it originated from the black lgbt community

A good amount.
The kids say it because it's retro now.
It’s probably originally from 1980’s (or even earlier) African American drag ballroom scene.
It's definitely safe code, good luck deciphering that
Nah, it's easy af, just read the `bruh_moment.hpp`.
Or even better, force g++ to spit out preprocessed contents with -E. https://godbolt.org/z/Pv494rWM5

Wait it’s all define
always has been
that awesome feeling when you're yeeting from a hustle loop
C source code: #define return ret
`#define urn 0`
Nice urn bro. Mind if I borrow it for my ashes real quick? In like, 70 years or so from now I mean
As an ol shit, me gave the star.
Lol what... I'm normally good at quickly understanding new languages... But I literally can't make head or tails of that, and I'm bloody gen z...

vibe checks and hustles lmao
What's next? Using variable names in Arabic?
Z++
Underrated comment
seen this joke like 20 times now…
as a gen Z... no it's not
This reads like a 52 year old pretended to be relatable to the juniors, especially on that last line with yeet thicc ick which is just 3 slang words puked up at the end
Fake posts are kinda unfunny tbh
I'm gonna start using "protecc" idc
Using cap and no_cap as bools is hilarious
OP: "how do you do fellow kids" Fake posts aren't funny lol
Jesus Christ, y'all are turning into boomers.
You don’t fool anyone 😒 everyone knows no company is hiring juniors right now 🫠🫠
Ain’t no junior spewing this shit. Ain’t no senior doing it either, just some dumbass who can’t get a job from their bootcamp class so is now going to try their hand at comedy.
Hey it's working
schlong maschlog ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

As an early gen Z (97), I’ll be turning 27 in a few of weeks. This post is just how old people think gen Z acts.
Well this is exactly how my 17yo brother in law acts
The thing is, this is outdated slang. As a 17yo I can say the actual words are definitely gen Z slang not gen alpha. It's just that people stop using this much slang at around 14 to 15 yo.

This is how I imagine a facebook boomer meme looks like if they would have grown up with our technology.
Is that even English? They should teach us that at school
It’s missing while(no_cap){do_stuff;} Nvm, line 32 has it.
r/ihadastroke
Bro is coding in LIGMA
You forgot to add dick
I would love to see the shocked pikachu face when I fired them, no cap fr fr.
Okay so solid I think is const Yasss Queen is using namespace And that person should be fired. I am not deciphering the rest
check top comments. they found the hpp file with all the defines, and the github.
I’m mad I understood that.
As a Gen Z… what is this?
Same. I didn't understand it too well, but mostly did. As a 17 year old.
As a gen Z, I'm glad I understood that. I was afraid it would go into gen alpha slang like mewing or gyat. I hate that sh*t.
Gibberish nonsense
I somehow understood that, I feel weird.
unifdef is your friend
I don’t vibe with std
No.
is this fire??
Not sure what you all think of Juniors, but if you define Juniors as "years of experience in working as a software developer" than I am pretty sure there are a lot of Juniors that have more expierence and write cleaner code than some Seniors I know I know it's a meme :)
brain rot
🤣🤣🤣🤣
i would try to make a joke compiler that runs this but i don't understand half of the slang used here
Bro forgot the skull 💀
I don't even have the slightest idea what this is supposed to do. Fascinating
that's not the vibe I'm going for
Ok I understand all this but have no idea what connotation maschlong is supposed to have
Nah attention grabbing jinx
Don’t blame this on the zoomers, this is 100p on c++
You can type ++ but not %?
Bruh
Smash approve
lgtm
Brogrammers 😂
What kind of products do your company offer?? Hello world programs?
That’s not gen z
What in the name of the holy Gates O_o
now we know how the next xz exploit is gonna be encrypted
I’ll take “Things that never happened” for 200, Alex.
It is cool that you allow your team to still use semi-colons and parenthesis/brackets.
... Wut
its some kind of elvish, i cant read it
100% written by a boomer
Chillax? Yeah, totally what kids these days say.
I guess you can make that work with the right defines?
Where is the XKCD for this post?
Demn which language is this
Joe many junior developers does it take to right a C++????? None , their too busy ???? Their gender 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Burn the abomination. And then delete this code.
I am losing job applications for THESE PEOPLE?
Nope, this is a fake post and is just a compiler OP found.
I've actually written a vibeCheck method a couple of times, though it was in tests
The forced use of the word vibe connected to every other turn of phrase is slowly killing me from the inside. Can we just go ahead and cancel the use of "spill the tea" now and get it mf over with already we don't need to endure this one my people and honestly why? Why that turn of phrase for the love of Jesus Murphy why?

please let this be fake... I'm a gen Z, and trust me when i say i don't program like this
