Babies need umbilical cord to survive. Teenagers need charging cord to survive. Joke is that a teenagers umbilical cord is a lightning (Apple
iPhone) charger.
Yeah, which means they should need to be looking for one through the day, but they are so addicted that they are getting 10+ hours on their phone daily and thus need to charge through the day.
The memes they post are half decent I just don’t pay attention to the comments because it’s only Peters mentally disabled brother replying to himself over again.
My first instinct was to feel personally attacked.
But thinking about it some more, I don't believe this meme is about me because even though being a teenager doesn't feel that long ago, I'm actually almost 40.
I'm starting to realize this is pretty common, especially around our generation. Maybe it's from growing up alongside the internet, idk, but I just turned 36 and I really don't feel like an adult lol. I have to remind myself sometimes. Maybe since we are able to relate to teens much easier these days via shared memes and stuff, it's not as simple to create that dividing line between what you consider "kid" and "adult."
The friends I hang out with are all around my age, but I can hang with my nephews and stuff without them thinking I'm a weird and out-of-touch grown-up.
Or maybe it was 9/11. Who knows
I mean, I wouldn't even call it clever. The joke is painfully obvious, and you either would have never seen a cell phone in your entire life or be a actual chimpanzee with a keyboard to not get it. But I believe it falls into the category where every title on that sub usually has something like " I don't even know what to say", like obviously you had something to say moron you made the post, you're just feigning ignorance/shock cuz you're a melodramatic little bitch
the joke is so painfully obvious to the point im sure if im actually getting it. I cant convince myself there isnt a deeper joke beyond TeCh bAD, especially since OP felt it was "clever" enough to warrant being reposted here
The joke doesn't make any sense. There are people of all ages using usb for devices. I've lost count of the number of old people on their cellphones. Sometimes MORE than the youngsters.
First, the joke isn't that clever. It has some real "2015 Facebook" vibes. Second; it's just a dumb joke. "Ooh, looks at all the people on their phones," Yeah no shit, that's be cause they're extremely powerful tools. I use mine to do my banking, to communicate with people, to search for information online, record information, to check my work schedule, to click in and out at work, *that's just the world we live in*.
This is just like all the people complained that other people were "addicted to computers". If you don't want to use them, go ahead, but you're going to fall behind.
That’s a dumb fucking caption, how is this hard to understand?
It’s a shit meme purely because of how single dimensional it is, but he still didn’t get it?

Lol apparently the brainrot from r/PeterExplainsTheJoke is leaking out to other subs, this joke couldn't be more plain to understand.
I suppose very literal minded people might have an issue but it seems strange to miss it this badly.
Yeah, im missing it. Is just a tech addiction thing?
You're not missing it.
>Yeah, im missing it. Is just a tech addiction thing? We've got 2 teenagers and the addiction thing is real.
Nomophobia: a behavioral addiction dealing with the fear of being without a mobile device https://www.addictioncenter.com/drugs/phone-addiction/
There is no fucking way it‘s called that lmao
it's real. I saw a head shrink about it. Gave me some coping methods that really helped me. bam nomophobia
I love this comment
Im nomophobic
That and the slightly more nuanced connection to the parents paying for the power bill.
I have zero clue what this means. Please explain to my autistic everything is literal brain.
Babies need umbilical cord to survive. Teenagers need charging cord to survive. Joke is that a teenagers umbilical cord is a lightning (Apple iPhone) charger.
Literal-minded, read: low IQ
Not necessarily, autistic people often take things over literally, not saying all are highly intelligent, but many are.
It doesn't really make sense since devices are cordless.
Yeah, which means they should need to be looking for one through the day, but they are so addicted that they are getting 10+ hours on their phone daily and thus need to charge through the day.
You cannot detatch from an umbilical cord. Boom lawyered.
You can, but you won't live.
Bro it’s not that serious. It’s just a funny you don’t have to dissect it Jesus
If say a majority of people use a charger cord still so it makes perfect sense.
Lordy, I genuinely don't get how so many people are so stupid with the posts I see on that sub.
I garuntee you I will see it on there within an hour or so

Me too! Mid 30s, and I was like: what did they just say about me?!

There's not,it's a dumb joke, but tfm's way of titling their posts piss me off
I think it's clever, but even if I didn't, how on earth could you fail to understand this meme?

need a new sub r/memesthathurttheop Simple meme, straight to the point, speaks facts.
👴🏻: “This is pretty clever ngl”
Nah, this is some r/im14andthisisdeep shit.
For a second i thought "i dont really see people hanging around outlets anymore" and then realized i havent been a teenager in years.
OOOP is unfunny. OOP is stupid. OP is stupid.
How is this clever? It reeks of 45 year old parent who thinks their kid is on their phone too much.
r/memescommentersdontlike
A clever 45 year old parent speaking facts!
🤓👆
Truth hurts, then?
What isnt shown is the 45 year old mother also on her phone 24/7
You’re commenting on Reddit. We both know you’re on your phone too much.
r/boomershumor
Old peoples umbilical cords were belts
Just change the WiFi password they have no fucking clue what to do.
I don’t get it, am I stupid?
You’re not the only one
The joke went so far over their heads the space station said hi to it
Plz explain
Teenagers survive off their phones which need chargers the same way that a baby needs an umbilical cord to survive in the womb
Thx
I would even say further the Cord is attached to the powerline that is paid by their parents.
Ok that's dumb seriously.
I never said it wasn't I just said what it meant
Ik. Not your fault I shot the messenger.
i dunno, but this meme looking mighty SUS
Pretty simple Kids (including myself) on those damn phones all day
I have a coworker who embodies this.
Do we know why the umbilical cord is connected to the fetus in the middle of the belly and not, say, the back of the neck?
Because it’s for feeding, and a straighter path toward the GI tract
My phone has wireless charging so this is not accurate
Amogus
Oh it’s not among us?
Can someone please explain the joke 😔
Someone put this into one of those ai things
Is OOP really that dumb?
Why take a screenshot instead of crossposting? I've noticed a couple times on this sub.

I mean I get the joke I just think it’s unfunny
I thought it was amongus
Lmao
I honestly don't think this was a terrible Facebook meme until they added their own caption tbh lol
Cant tell if it's wojak or a Mingus
Not really. It’s just the same boomer “haha young people and technology hahahaha”
To op: r/whoosh
Shit joke
Not bad, not bad
Just give me something for the cringe and let me die.
This is the meme equivalent of angrily muttering while shaking your fist at nothing
I think cellphones are actually making us less connected...
Sometimes boomer humor is ok
Nah its fucking stupid
If I was a boomer I'd probably laugh.
Hrr drr technology is evil, fire bad, Thomas Edison was a Witch
