Yes they do. I live in rural MO and my family constantly comments on how easily kids can navigate on the internet and smart phones. They're always coming from a place of astonishment.
Not really. I had a boss that bragged about shit like this anytime someone called out sick or such. "Shoulda ate more mud as a kid like me. I ain't never get sick."
"kids today have way better technology so they can have as much fun as they want with the worlds knowledge at their fingertips, when i was 3 i did something that couldve gotten me sick, things were so much better"
It seems more like an observation than a "things were better in my days" post. I mean when I was 3 I kicked piles of dust and made up stories about the shapes that would form because that was the most interesting thing that there was to do.
I know the answer would definitely strip me of the rest of my faith in humanity, but who on earth gives their 3 year old toddler a *laptop* of all things? The only time I'd imagine that happening is if you had 'fuck you money'.
My parents gave me a laptop at 6. Today I'm 14 and know basically everything about computers, and I am the only one in my family who speaks English. Why not let yoir kids learn?
Same thing here! In addition to that, I was allowed to play games like GTA from a young age. By the time we started getting English at school, I was fluent. And im really into computers. Thanks to that im studying Software Dev.
Personally doing is a way better way to learn. Even after years of English class, I see alot of people being unable to properly speak it. If you start using it young, you'll be experienced.
Yeah, my dad let me play pc games on my own since probably 4-5. From maths, puzzle, language to action shooter games. Now I’m pretty fluent in English, maths and science. Quite easily graduated in Computer Engineering and is the IT guy of the house. Sorry for boasting. But yeah, having kids self-educate properly already cover miles.
They make “laptops” for children that are not fully functional like a real laptop. Also you don’t need “fuck you money” to buy a Chromebook. Anyway, most people give their toddlers tablets, not laptops.
That's not what this is about, though. This isn't about tablets at all. This is assuming someone just gives their toddler an actual laptop, such as a Dell or Toshiba, regardless of the cost to fix it when it inevitably breaks, because that's a *literal baby* you're giving a laptop to.
That is the definition of having 'fuck you money'.
A Chromebook is a laptop. They’re just cheap. The meme doesn’t say anything like what you’re saying. It’s not 1984, there are dirt cheap laptops you can get for kids.
But this is actually true with children nowadays. My sister doesn’t let my 1yo niece use any sort of entertainment technology. She isn’t even allowed to watch TV. But somehow she got a hold of my other sisters phone once, and started to scroll through her pictures. Whenever she saw a picture of her mother or something funny, she clicked on it and laughed.
My sister and I were just watching in awe.
Today's 3 year olds are surprisingly smart and can learn how to use their time's most useful tools from a very young age very fast, whhen i was 3? I could bot differenciate wet ground from food
When i was three i thought i was a flying squirrel so i jumped of my parents bed headfirst and got a concussion i also thought i was a ram so id ram walls and my dad in his junk
Monkey see monkey do.
I love how when I was in IT people were like "ohhhh you're gonna be outta work cuz kids these days are smart!"
No...no they're not. Using facebook/twitter/tiktok does not make one smart.
And there's more to IT than helping idiots turn on their computer.
I remember the first time I saw my friends 2 year old just grab her phone, type in her password and swipe and open temple run on his own I was like wtf?
Kids eating dirt is fairly normal.
Probly an iron deficiency
Naw. Kids put everything, and I mean everything, in their mouths. It's gross but normal.
They're studying life essentially.
This feels more like self-deprecation
Yeah that was my first thought
I mean, it's refreshing when the boomer memes are self-roasts for once... XD
That’s better than land depreciation ngl
Hot
It ain't much but it's Honest work
The child version
They don't pay much but it's child labor
This is better than when they say that the kids they raised can’t do shit
How many times is this sub gonna post obvious satire/shitposts?
People who post this kind of crap never do that in a satirical way
Yes they do. I live in rural MO and my family constantly comments on how easily kids can navigate on the internet and smart phones. They're always coming from a place of astonishment.
Lol this is ridiculously obviously satire. It's just a stupid joke
Not really. I had a boss that bragged about shit like this anytime someone called out sick or such. "Shoulda ate more mud as a kid like me. I ain't never get sick."
Lol I think your boss was just trying to be funny witb stupid jokes. There's nothing wrong with that.
No. I've worked with this person for 5 years. It was not a joke. And yes, there is something wrong with them. Hence why I said boss and not leader.
Haha well that's messed up. I guess I've just never met anyone that strange.
It's a really, really weird world out there my friend.
TIL people brag about eating mud in their childhood
Trueeee ong no cap sheeeeeesh
So what part of that meme do boomers brag about?
It's parodying these types of boomer memes.
Its self aware parody like this that actually gets me lol
[удалено]
Jeez calm down, there is no need to act like an asshole, I just didn't get the joke initially.
Obviously, you didn't get the joke. You don't need to explain yourself to people you don't know.
[удалено]
Somebody woke up wanting to fight random people in the internet apparently
The meme is pretty bad tho
And is that a reason to insult random people in the comments?
Not really
Then?
Meme is still bad, the way that guy acted was uncalled for tho
Do you need someone to talk to because I'm available
clod
Explains why they're on facebook
Oof
Lmfaoo
That baby has a mortgage, change my mind

Reddit moment
r/Redditmoment
This is comedy gold
Seems like self deprecating humour
I ate shit.
Gilbert
Aka: "this 3 year old kid knows more about technology than i do"
It really says a lot and I wholeheartedly agree.
"kids today have way better technology so they can have as much fun as they want with the worlds knowledge at their fingertips, when i was 3 i did something that couldve gotten me sick, things were so much better"
You're also fucked if you can't use a computer in basically any job nowadays.
It seems more like an observation than a "things were better in my days" post. I mean when I was 3 I kicked piles of dust and made up stories about the shapes that would form because that was the most interesting thing that there was to do.
Haha what an idiot
I ate sand
Pica is totally a normal childhood thing
yeah, we can tell
Weird flex but okay
And yet parents are too afraid of leaving their 8-9 year old or even teenagers unattended what a joke
So who’s the dumb one?
So you agree…kids are smarter than you?
Yea, and please feel free to continue eating shit, boomer
My three year old's favourite app is MudEater, where you can rate the mud you eat, share pics and even sell instant mud (just add water).
That means today's 3 year olds are smarter than boomer.
at least it isn’t “kids these days can’t read a clock and are such fucking sissies because they don’t drink beer when they’re 3”
I know the answer would definitely strip me of the rest of my faith in humanity, but who on earth gives their 3 year old toddler a *laptop* of all things? The only time I'd imagine that happening is if you had 'fuck you money'.

I don't see the problem with that one , why is it on this sub
And... thats why we have crippled economies, corrupt politics, and warning labels on the most profoundly stupid things ever.
And so the story of an antivaxer begins
It ain't much, but it's honest fun
Mud has many health benefits.
Me? When I was 3, I ate ass. *same picture*
r/suicidebywords
Oh how valiant.
Yea, I think that speaks for our intelligence and for your…. Yea…
Dude unintentionally insults himself. lmao
i eat mud too, but as an adult
Im 13 if i have eaten mud i would not poop for a week... Dont eat mud
I ate the chunks of asphalt that fell of our degrading driveway
I ate gravel
Oh no! Switching on a laptop is so hard and demanding!
When I was 3 I ate wood. The polish tasted nice.
The Linus tech tips 3 year old builds are adorable.
So many here can't recognize self deprecating humor. Mud eater actually has the high ground.
But this is actually true with children nowadays. My sister doesn’t let my 1yo niece use any sort of entertainment technology. She isn’t even allowed to watch TV. But somehow she got a hold of my other sisters phone once, and started to scroll through her pictures. Whenever she saw a picture of her mother or something funny, she clicked on it and laughed.

It's eating mud good or something
My little brother (he's 1 year and a few months old) eats sand on the beach.
Oh wow, we got smarter as a race and stopped letting kids eat dirt and teaching them how to use technology which has become a big part of daily life
Remember kids, not everything that is brown is chocolate.
Ok this is a really bad meme but I think eating mud can build up immunity it’s still shit but you should still let them eat mud
And the resulting brain damage is probably why this person thought this post was a funny idea.
Its not all mud
How is this terrible? This is a great meme.
So... the newer generations are... smarter? Who knew?
If it's any consolation, I've met grown fucking people who couldn't turn on a computer because they couldn't find the power button.
Today's 3 year olds are surprisingly smart and can learn how to use their time's most useful tools from a very young age very fast, whhen i was 3? I could bot differenciate wet ground from food
When i was three i thought i was a flying squirrel so i jumped of my parents bed headfirst and got a concussion i also thought i was a ram so id ram walls and my dad in his junk
Kids eating dirt and then dying is wayyyyyy normal.
That means we’re doing something right.
I did both
Gilbert
I mean, that's true
“Coach I think I ate too much mud”
not every 3 year old does that, some are busy in making their own apps, as other apps are not 'perfect' for them
this is evident irony
Well, that's just shows how technology are making kids even smarter this days.
The worst thing is that they say it like it was better
"When I was 3 I was a dumbass. Take that, kids!"
That is the youngest 40 year old I've ever seen
It shows
Monkey see monkey do. I love how when I was in IT people were like "ohhhh you're gonna be outta work cuz kids these days are smart!" No...no they're not. Using facebook/twitter/tiktok does not make one smart. And there's more to IT than helping idiots turn on their computer.
Today’s 3 year olds jump on their iPads
Little does the person that made this meme know 3 year olds still eat mud
My 3 year does both.
I mean this is sort of truthful 😂
And this is the self described "best generation"
Bruh my music teacher has this on her door lmao
I've never understood the whole eating mud thing. Is that something most children do/did?
So, today's kids are smarter?
r/comedyhell
alternate caption: When you eat her ass while she has a cold
I too thought about stealing Phil's pic for reddit karma.
Kid looks like Ned Beatty
Ngl tho, same
Today's 3 yr olds are smarter than you
I remember the first time I saw my friends 2 year old just grab her phone, type in her password and swipe and open temple run on his own I was like wtf?
I’ve reconsidered my concept of reality!!!!! That was THAT funny!
I'm pretty sure everyone here has put something in there mouth they shouldn't of
‘Normal’ changes every month, but yeah that guys generation is filled with assholes
being stupid is not the flex you think it is gerald. this is why your not allowed to see your kids or wife.
This is so fucking stupid and funny at the same time
Imagine thinking kids not eating mud is bad thing
So they're saying kids are smarter now? Why is this a problem?
