The Humor of the Youngsters

Joseph showed this to me, obviously hoping for an epic reaction. Apparently, this is the epitome of Gen Z humor, and, according to the glowing comments, this is laugh-until-you-cry funny for people of a certain age.

I don't get it, for I am old. I mean, I get why it's supposed to be funny (to a certain extent), but it just doesn't really tickle my funny bone into side-splitting gales of laughter.

Humor is definitely generational. I remember trying to explain Gen X humor and terms to an older male adult when I was about 17 or 18 and being confused as to why he was confused. 

I am he. He is I.
