Juuling?
Vaping. Juul was one of the original companies. This meme is old
I would change the ‘complaining about young’ people with ‘complaining about everything’.
Skateboarding is never anything but maximum coolness at any age.
That half-pipe in the graph looks very tempting. I can’t wait until I’m 80 so I can be a cool skateboarder again.
I’m colour blind you ducker
10-15 is a bit old for patty cake to be cool.
If a 100 yo is still living alone he is metal as fuck. If a 100yo is breathing he is already cool, anything they do is already a win
Depends if they’re just wasting away alone or still active and healthy.
There’s nothing cool about having to live alone because the person you been married to for 50+ years died and you can’t bring yourself to meet soemone else out of heartache, even after 10 or 20 years.
It is pretty cool though if you do manage to meet someone else, when you’re 90 and now you’re popping viagra like candy.
Henry Kissinger…
Fuck yeah, juul it up old fart
I disagree with the “complaining about young people” line having coolness increase proportionally with age: when I was a young adult, I often joked about kids these days in a way that seemed to get a lot of laughs. The humour was in the fact that I was a young person talking about young people as if I wasn’t one of them (and beneath that was me making light of the text that, likely due to being autistic, I have always felt isolated from my peer group).
Anyway, I got good at leveraging this for humour, but as I aged, the joke potential expired: I was too old for there to be any irony in saying “kids these days”, but not old enough for it to be cool to complain about young people.
On the bright side, I am sufficiently old to be able to torment young people by misusing their slang. It’s most likely effective if you use the slang in a mostly right way, so I enjoy the challenge of needing to actually understand correct usage of new slang. Amusingly, studying current slang as an outsider is a skill I’m well versed in, given that I had to do this even when I was young.
As a 52 year old that has been skateboarding since the 1970’s I take great offense with anyone that tries to gatekeep skateboarding. Skateboards are always cool.
I think it’s all about perspective. Say the Patty Cake one. A 30 year old doesn’t seem “cool” doing it according to the chart. But a 30 year old who sits down with a 5 year old and does it… That kid thinks they are pretty cool.
Stop complaining… Oh wait
Are you J. Mascis?
Unexpected dinosaur jr
I debate every week learning to skate at 45
I feel there is a big difference between being able to skate at 45 and learning to skate at 45.
I used to skate as a kid, but I never once managed to pop an ollie.
do it
Tony??
I actually had a picture with Tony Hawk from when I was ~11. I ran across him at the airport and I made my mom take.our picture.
Would probably have made for a better picture if you stopped running and stood still next to him, though…
He was super nice actually. He must have been 15 himself.
Being at the bottom of the half pipe isn’t cool though.
The age spike at 69 is 🤌
I didn’t notice!!! Hahahahh
Celebrating retirement?
Nope.
(Seeing the birthday spike.)
Nice.
FYI (because I had to look it up) Juuling is just vaping with a smaller type of vape…
like, say, a Juul?
Is that a vape brand?
yeah, popular with the younger crowd. there was some controversy over black market vape pods causing popcorn lung in some highschoolers
Sure but I don’t vape so the only thing Juul means to me is Yule…
I was just teasing :)
Juul is pronounced like jool or maybe jewel. I can see how non-americans can misinterpret that though
Na, juuls use a salt crystal delivery system, vapes use an oil base concentrate.
Salt nic is not exclusive to Juul, and only weed vapes use an oil. Vape juice is propylene glycol and vegetable glycerol with flavoring and nicotine.
(Source here is me, went to vapes to successfully quit smoking back when there was more threading than a 510, when mods were a milled tube and a button or flashlight guts, with an rca connector on top so you could switch between different thread types. It sucks what its become, it was really helpful for me to quit nicotine completely by having a vape.)
Both let people know they love sucking a dick

Probably not as well as when we wear our fave top
Our when our favorite tops wear us
Patty-cake does not reach maximum coolness at about age 9.
I remember patty-cake games being super popular in elementary school, and it switched to hacky sack games in late middle school through high school. I think the graph is accurate.
Bruh, seeing gam gam playing patty cake at 97 is priceless. Fix this graph lol
There are definitely patty cake cool bumps when you become a parent of a toddler and a grandparent of a toddler. In those moments your coolness is off the chart.
Best infographic ever, I know what to do with my life now.
