My kids explained me all of these except "pumping/pumper" - what does it mean?

(I've tried Urban Dictionary, but of course, the only entries are about anal sex)

In World of Warcraft (and probably other MMO's of the same type) it means you do a lot of damage/damage per second. Which is essentially how your inidividual performance is measured in this MMO for others to see if you know wtf you're doing.

Reminds me of this that popped up on my feed :

I had a very different school life and experience than kids today it seems.

If a dork gave a chat to our grades at school and tried to be cool, we'd mostly be chatting away uninterested, passing out, purposely asking wrong questions and making jokes in the crowd or playing the last clap game or something.

These kids seem way to excited and enthusiastic for this shit, the guy isn't even saying anything interesting.

My assumption, being this is from the US, that this is entirely staged or fabricated for a bit of internet fame.

Getting old fucking sucks.
Your sphere of existence shrinking with each passing year.
Fading into obscurity whilst desperately clinging on to the only things that make sense to you anymore.

Still, you've got to laugh haven't you?

Everyone who talks like that deserves this.

Weird, I'm turning 40 this year and living my best life. The world keeps getting bigger and I'm enjoying exploring it all. More friends than ever, more time and money to do things than ever before and am in the best shape of my life.

If your "sphere of existence" is shrinking, maybe it's time for a course change in your life?

They brought in some dork wannabe comedian to try something very similar to us in the 90s, got a pretty good response from most of the students, but me and my buddies held the line just like this dude right here:

Shoutout to my nonplussed brother in arms.

Damn, I wanted to post the exact same screenshot haha

Just a cynical jest my friend, but good for you

should be obvious that all new slang is stupid to the previous generation

I have three boys 10 and under and if you're just learning about some of these now, I'm sorry to tell you a lot of them are already old and out of touch. Like Skibidi Toilet is a very 2024 thing, y'all should look up Italian Brainrot it's the hot thing right now.
