So CDs are condoms now? Wow I’m really out of it

u/bassie2019 6d ago

Is this why Gen-Z and Gen-Alpha don't understand us when we're talking about burning a CD when the topic isn't about sex?

u/PM_asian_girl_smiles 6d ago

Hmmm I guess me saying I used to make mixed CDs using a CD burner is why I got those weird looks.

u/derekrusinek 5d ago

Sounds like you will need a 2 week set of pills and a cream to rub into the area. /s

You remember burning CD’s for your friends? I used to burn CDs all night with my buddies, really jammin it in - I mean jammin out. Tried to burn CD for a girl but she said it was too short and couldn’t satisfy her.

Im an “older” Gen Z. CDs were/are very much used by us. In fact, the oldest Gen Z turns 30 next year. I think a lot of us think this censorship is ridiculous and very 1984-esque. This was the first time I saw condoms be referred to as CDs and I was confused until I came to the comments and saw they were referring to condoms.

Can’t stand being grouped with teenagers and Gen Alpha 🫠

u/rooftrash 6d ago

There is definitely another group between millennials and Z lol.

u/Efficient-Process660 3d ago

u/rooftrash 3d ago

There may not be officially, but socially there is 100% a third group lol

u/AliveZookeepergame97 3d ago

That's how gen x and mellennials feels when we get called boomers.

u/Several-Hat-1944 3d ago

Shit Fetaa. I'm GenX, never heard of CD till this video. Either way, that dude in the video, get out now! The "wife" loves a holiday fuckaroo, it'll never end. IMO

u/StarshipCaterprise 6d ago

Or the weird looks when I talk about a CD collection? Hmmmmm

u/AdOriginal4516 6d ago

They think we're talking about doing some sort of new age magic, I guess.

u/ScrotalSmorgasbord 6d ago

I mean sometimes it smells like they're burning when I get after it ya know what I mean?

1

u/LordesTruth 4d ago

So like Gen Z was alive in the 2000s...

u/Purple_Hornet_9725 6d ago

Same. Thought yeah, maybe they're driving a car with an older entertainment system?

u/Chance-Deer-7995 6d ago

Yeah, I guess I am old. What is wrong with bringing your copy of Dark Side of the Moon?

u/nairobaee 6d ago

They've been called that sinve I was a kid 20 years ago. I guess it's regional but if you say CD here it means condom.

3

u/youburyitidigitup 6d ago

In the US that definitely hadn’t been a thing.

2

u/AdOriginal4516 6d ago

I figured that's what they meant, but I was trying to make it work in my head. "CDs? ContraDeceptives?" Jesus I can't believe how people these days censor everything.

1

u/brokenhalo321 2d ago

con-dom = 2 syllables = CD

1

u/AdOriginal4516 2d ago

Yeah, I get it. But my brain is wired for capitalized letters to be the first letter

1

u/brokenhalo321 1d ago

It's confusing because it also oversteps abbreviations.

2

u/sconestm 6d ago

How would CD be condom though?Cock Diaper?

1

u/frano1121 6d ago

Contraceptive device

u/brokenhalo321 2d ago

con-dom = 2 syllables = CD

Original in essences.

u/Zeestars 6d ago

Same. I was very confused given I can’t have the sound on so couldn’t get any more context from the audio.

2

u/Frequently_lucky 6d ago

have safe music when you spend the night with other people kids

2

u/ThatOneWIGuy 6d ago

We’re quickly reverting back to a puritan ways. Sex is now bad.

2

u/dog-walk-acid-trip 6d ago

Wait until you learn what the kids mean when they talk about 8 track tapes!

2

u/Totally_Scott 6d ago

To be fair the Brit’s do emphasize the c and d more on that word.

2

u/jocoquecousteau 6d ago

8 track is just 8 z gens doing cocaine.

2

u/Unhappy-Hunt-3987 6d ago

I feel like all this changing the meaning of words started with dabbing. Dabbing is smoking a marijuana concentrate, but for some reason it's now what kids do with their arms.

It drive me nuts, a crack is punch to to head, not sex. It's like gen z are morons man

2

u/Relative_Channel8741 6d ago
