A Term of Endearment

I’ve come to realize my own modern equivalent to the mantra old timers would tell me as a youth in the 1980s...”Kid, when I was your age, I had to walk 8 miles to school in the snow with bread bags over my shoes...both ways!” 

What do I tell the youth today as the current old lady of 2021 that would shock them??

 “Kid, when I was your age, I called my best friend a spaghetti eating Dago Wop....and then she’d turn around and call me a greedy dirty tent dwelling Jew. 

Then we both laughed our heads off and weren’t offended.” ......The “good old days “ when we could all laugh at ourselves and each other without fear of being cancelled by the earth. Making fun of each other used to be a term of endearment. You think that concept would even compute in the mind of our youth today?
