    What’s up? Hit me up at -number- if you see anything that is suspect or distinctly uncomfortable or unimpressive, like (I don’t know…) a toilet that got badly messed up or something. To be honest, we are openly and boldly trying to improve the attractiveness of this campground. We are determined to keep at it until this place is obviously desirable and impressive. We need your help, friends. Thank you.

    Y’all, I’m an Xennial nerd who likes listening to academic podcasts, NPR, and (as frequently featured on NPR) liberal middle-aged white men singing country-blues-rock. I collect fountain pens and watch college football. I am deeply, deeply uncool. I understood every single word of the teen sign. (though, okay, I learned a couple of them several months ago listening to NPR, LOL).

    Does that mean I’m cooler than I think, or the sign is less cool than it thinks?

      Is…this what Zoomers think millenials are like?

      It means you’re cooler than me.

      That NPR piece was cringe AF with words from when I was teenager, and I’m in my 30’s.

        You’re gonna have to be more specific, hepcat.

          Well it’s been a few months but off the top of my head, on fleek. I haven’t heard that one in years.

            I just meant about which NPR piece was cringe, LOL. That’s half the brand at this point, at least on weekends.

      Same here. 30s around the corner, but to my knowledge of passed youth I might have had considered a sign using my people’s lingo quite… Disdain.
