The porn tech pendulum:
Boomers: So your telling me that if I know the right people and go to the right theaters, I get to see porn? (Boomers become good at networking)
Gen X: So your telling me if I buy a TV I get to see porn? (Gen Xs don't get any cool knowledge, so they restrict porn on TV)
Millennials: So your telling me that if I get really good at computers and internet, I get to see porn? (Millennials get really good at using computer technology)
Zoomers: So your telling me if I own a phone, I get to see porn? (Zoomers don't get any cool knowledge, move to restrict porn on the internet)
Gen Alpha: So your telling me if I install these image AIs and VR programs, I get to see porn? (Gen Alpha gets really good and working with AI and VR 'interactions')
Um, Gen Xer here, and I spent a lot of time waiting for jpegs of Jenny McCarthy to load one line at a time, top down. If you don't know what I mean, you're either too young or too old

Flat wrong about GenX, we are the Internet Lords. I was printing out porn jpgs and saving files to Zip disks in the 90s.

ZIP disks, the lords and masters of Limewire downloaded porn jpegs
Early Gen X was TV, late Gen X was definitely early internet.
Whoever you are: I'm going to screw up your and you're until the end of time
I knew that I’m a millennial at heart
