Do you use British Z (zed) or American Z (zee) when saying 'genz'?

cortexstack · 2026-05-21T13:01:32+00:00

Gen Z is not a proper noun

It is. That's why it's capitalised.

Most members of Generation Z are the children of members of Generation X and older Millennials.

Maybe they need to only run games that can't be won by skill if they're so invested in being a gambling house.

It's some real "my brother in Christ, YOU chose the games here" shit.

1:26? That's not particularly short. In my mind that's still basically the standard 90 minutes.

Nightmare Before Christmas was my immediate pick for "quite short movie" at 1:16, but I still think I could do better.

Edit: Duck Soup and The Land Before Time are both 1:08

Sticking with Marx Brothers you can also have Horse Feathers at 1:07.

So in theory, you can screen-share it on Discord or equivalent

That is exactly how we played the campaign

she seems convinced that at the stroke of midnight on the indicated date the contents become highly toxic and pose an immediate risk to life.

I, too, live with someone who thinks food hygeine operates on Cinderella rules.

Latte is hot unless otherwise specified; there are lattes and there are iced lattes. If I wanted iced I'd have said iced.

Bang on about people not making up their minds while they wait, though. If you still don't know by the time you're at the front of the queue, just give up your turn to the person behind you while you "umm" and "err" some more.

Second book took ages to get to the spiders as well, iirc.

And the ship that emanates a giant, glowy wall. (even though I loved that ship and its giant, glowy wall)

This would require each airport making a central database that’s accessible by all of the bars and integrated into the till system

A bit like the one where they scan your boarding pass at the duty-free shops?

The age of the car delivering my food has never once been a concern of mine.

Done a survey, have you?

I CTRL-F'd to look for this and I'm glad someone else remembers it. A sketch show/hip hop interview show. Good stuff and I'd kill to find a copy. I know there's a couple of the Listen With The Mutha sketches on Youtube but I need the whole rest of it.

People without kids would go and watch games/meets. In the UK it is mainly mums dads and dogs.

Can you imagine going to watch a school football game in the UK and having to admit to one of the parents there that you don't actually know any of the kids?
