When you're already super cursed another one just clocks it all around again back to normal.

A ghost could have shown up and been like "I am here to destroy you!" and I would have just been like "great, when do we start?"

An NZ MP just said "Ok boomer" during a speech. The meme's done. Unless somebody like Trudeau or the King of Bhutan suddenly uses it, the meme has reached its peak.

The true peak would be if the Queen looked at the Prince of Wales and said it. Or one of his sons.

One can only hope. Anyone got Duchess Meghan's number? Or BoJo's? Maybe we can get her to insert it in her next speech at Lords.

A National MP interrupted 24-year old Green MP during a speech and she just said "Ok boomer" (ukay, bumah) and kept going.

It's more I don't know how my manager feels on the issue and I would rather not risk being fired in case he's also tremendously homophobic.

Ah, that is a pickle indeed.

I mean, given that the information came from mod edits of the thread in question, it seems pretty "official", as I doubt those kinds of mistakes get made.

Yes, but usually there is a retirement post or so.

Especially for Nervun I expect a public announcement(forum thread in Moderation) since he was a very active moderator.

Mallorea has always been a bit invisible in public.
