How tall is this kid?

Theres a basket ball hoop behind him

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic.

This is from a bit on Malcolm in the Middle. This kid is on the shoulders of another, who is on the shoulders of a third. They are playing hoops with the father, and by gaining such height, they easily reach the basket and win the game.

The youngest, who is on top, tells the father "the future is now, old man", suggesting that times have changed, and the rules that once allowed the father to flourish are no longer applicable. The younger generation are changing the game and will win in the end.

As Gen-X rapidly become grandparents, this meme will make less and less sense.

Not really, technology keeps progressing, and a bunch of things they were dependent on (as well as us older millennials), are already obsolete if not on the way out (there are some nostalgia comebacks, but almost always with updarted tech)..

Meanwhile, the main gripe I hear from my Gen-X friends is "the kiddos" lack of grasp of the inner workings of the technology they rely on. Granted, my social circles have little in common with those found in more rural settings, but not a single one of the people I know over forty-five has a problem understanding the latest technology and the basic concepts of its inner workings.
