You guys seriously talking filth while we have children on here like txbyhull

I know a lot of you likely have children older than me, but I'd love to think I've graduated from the title of child

Another question. How did you know the x in his name was meant to be an O ?

I have regularly been referred to as Tibby throughout high school so for all you guys know it could be an i.

And why not just use an O instead of an x?

txbyhull is my handle on most if not all social media, usernames, logins, gamertags etc. Usually down to the fact that my actual name is regularly already in use. Gen Z have taken to substituting vowels for x in order to get around this. Adding extra consonants such as a third L is another one.

Is it a bright idea? Absolutely not. You'd really hope that Gen Z was digitally literate enough to understand the dangers of using your real name in spaces like this, but foresight isn't a skill of mine.

Ochre was worried about having to sign up as Xchre until he realised he's the only person on the planet that likes that guernsey colour (for the Eagles).

It’s ok man, your posts on here over the last two days made me feel bloody old and wonder where time went. I started to post on bigfooty going into the 2015 draft and I was 21 at the time too.

While it feels a bloody long time ago, I sometime remember games from that year and it doesn’t feel like it was that long ago. Beating tiges at G, QF, beating the crows after Walsh died and Yeo kicking 4 (also 20 odd touches V suns)

Us younglings frequently sub vowels for an X to make our usernames look g a n g s t a

Hey at least you don’t have a unique first name and you didn’t make it your username and you didn’t become a board meme

 

[txbyhull]

Also, wtf is a Gen Z stare?

I find it a bit difficult to explain I can't lie. It is just a blank look of vague disappointment, confusion, loss-for-words, etc. Often used in the work place when people are being rude, entitled, 'customer is always right' type stuff.

I was 16 when I started lurking and 17 when I started posting. Time flies. Still remember my first post too.

Please enlighten me as to this new WCE-board lore

I can’t remember why I created BF tho but I know why came to use it a year later. Got into so many arguments with the nuffs on the fb groups. Honestly these days I don’t even have the energy to argue on here

I relate somewhat. As I'm sure TY24 would, I vividly remember a lot of late 2010's Arsenal matches that do not feel a decade old at all. Heck, I only graduated high school 3 years ago, but it feels like yesterday

I started because I had an autistic obsession with score graphics and footy jumpers at the time (ladies, form an orderly queue). My first post was me making my own set for a Fox Footy rebrand.

I still quick sell Alexis Sanchez whenever I pack him on EA FC.

It's been 7 years...

But how is that a Gen Z thing?

Like you I used my usernames from elsewhere on here. Problem was that my name is quite unique and majority of user would have came across my rambling on other platforms such as fb and twitter.

I deleted that account but people figured out who I was still.

Then one day some user (can’t remem Who now) absolutely lost the plot at me and kept on repeating theA5= Avishka as if they were on to something and they were doxxing my identity. Funny part was everyone actually already knew that. It also ended making me a board meme but not in a great way hahaha

That's where I agree with Bender_

It's not, it's quite genuinely a completely universal customer service experience. It's only gained the Gen Z tag because of social media, and the somewhat odd idea that some have that old people = dumb because the most frequent recipients of said stare are in the 40-80+ age range.

The idea of it's use on rude or dumb customers is fine, but saying its a gen z thing is a bit lame

Life moves so fast after you leave school. i also felt the years after 25 feel like a haze.

40-80+ is the same as 40+.

Maths nerd, me. (or is it grammar nerd??)

Back in your day when the vodka-cranberries endlessly flowed and you wanted every Eagles player to put in 8-5kg?

Give Tibby a break with the life moves so fast stuff, you guys probably go to the same places and you're talking like you're a week away from retirement.

Shut up Bxndxr_

Mate I had full body cramp getting out of bed a few hours ago. I’m closer to your age than Tibby

Speaking, had an interaction at work on Saturday that fits it.

A non-local came in and asked if "this is all the mixers you have?" in a really snotty way. For context, small drive thru bottle-shop situated directly next to a corner-store. Told her yes and she can find any others next door. She went over to our liquor cabinet and I served one of our regulars, a really nice older lady in her 50s.

Non-local called me over to unlock the cabinet for some tequila and vodka, and proceeded to rant about how looking at my regular made her sick and not want to drink alcohol, how sad it is that some people can't help themselves, and she never wants to end up like that.

Perfect example of when the stare is to be used. The audacity was truly baffling

I went back to see the origins of A5= Avishka and it was 4 years ago ffs
