    Oh Steven…flip phones had cameras all the time. You probably just don’t remember, because the picture quality was awful.

    For the actual Gen Z crowd, the joke here is that they took pictures that were often so bad you couldn’t tell what they were pictures of, and now I’m over explaining the joke because based on what little Gen Z humor I do know, your jokes are basically just 5 straight minutes of rambling random nonsense over an unrelated picture. A picture which I took on my original Motorola RAZR, so you can’t tell what it’s supposed to be.

    I can’t believe Stephen left out the hardcore younger communities who are investing in old school 35mm and 120 film photography, seriously those things are making a big comeback.

    Wired headphones are retro? It’s the only ones I trust. Wireless ones fall out of my ears, and wireless ones connected to each ear like an earmuff hurt my ears. Wired headphones allow my ears space, and can actually stay with my ears through a whole song.

    In The Late Show writers’ room: “OK, this premise is funny, but how do we end it?”
    “OK, go with me on this: Does anyone remember the ‘Anyone for Tennis?’ sketch from Monty Python’s Flying Circus?”
    “The one where Michael Palin tosses a tennis ball, causing everyone to suffer a bloody & gruesome death?”
    “Bingo.”
    “…Yeah, that’ll work, I guess.”

    Imagine for a moment, how educated millennials and their offspring would be had they never been given access to the internet and smartphones.
    We used to be on an upward path. Once we no longer needed to buy internet minutes, or obtain free minutes via all of those CD’s, education levels began plummeting at an ever increasing rate.
    At this moment, we have children who actually believe they are special by default, who actually believe they can be anything they want to be by default. Those two failed generations seriously believe one can dictate reality by merely saying words.
    That if they think it, it must be real. They ACTUALLY believe the former criminal was some form of a “good” president.

    The internet SHOULD be cut off cold. ALL cell phones instantly inoperable. And current failures posing as educators replaced with actual educated people. Do ONLY THAT, and in 6 years we WILL see a MASSIVE rise in education levels the nation over. (Except for Florida and Arizona) Those states are total losses. Best used as surface area for solar electric generation.

    Long story short, millennials and their offspring are DUMB BEYOND ALL TOLERANCE LEVELS.
