Episode #81 - Generation XP

About this episode

The hosts explore the challenges of understanding generational slang in gaming culture.

At what age are you too old to know new slang but too young to know old slang? Are we uncs regardless? Help us out because we really need to know before we step into the clunky world of Gen Alpha gaming slang! How do we aura farm in Elden Ring? Can our Call of Duty drip ooze rizz? Does playing Warcraft give out sigma vibes? Wtf does this all mean? How does this effect my grandmoms? On today's episode we embarrass ourselves trying to figure out how to use what and when in a world that already thinks we're cooked. Welcome to Generation XP!
