Ribs are great, and easy to get right. Brisket is difficult and rarely done right, but done right, itā€™s the king of bbq.

Iā€™ve heard nano say zoomer. Itā€™s kind of silly/joking, but itā€™s a thing.

Yeah, Iā€™ve heard it, but I think Gen Z is the term with the most staying power. Granted, I also thought ā€œmillennialā€ was a stupid term that wouldnā€™t stick, and yet even ā€œxennial,ā€ an even stupider term, gets bandied about from time to time.

I see ā€˜zoomerā€™ far more than ā€˜Gen Zā€™, pretty sure zoomer is here to stay.

Zoomer is a massive favorite to win the naming battle.

Iā€™d be pretty pissed if people called me and my cohorts something ridiculous like zoomers.

OK, Boomer.

This reminds me, I donā€™t think Iā€™ve read any Douglas Coupland books since Girlfriend in a Coma. Are any of them good?

All of those terms are pretty bad imo apart from maybe Generation X which seems to sum up that semi-generation reasonably well - the postpunk latchkey kids.

Itā€™s pretty hard to make fun of millennials, because weā€™re all in on the joke. Some of the best anti millennial humor is made by millennials. I think as a generation we donā€™t take ourselves very seriously.

I didnā€™t think any of them since Generation X were good and I didnā€™t even think Generation X was all that good.

Question for Brits or anyone with knowledge of BBC iPlayer: the new Adam Curtis series is available ā€œfrom Feb 11thā€. Does that mean midnight tonight, or is there some set time it becomes available? Is there any way to find out? Nowhere seems to mention.

Bout fucking time. Maybe we can do away with the Pledge of Allegiance in schools too while weā€™re at it.
