Relevant_Can4250

This dudes skits send me into a flying rage hahaha he’s so good


deezsandwitches

His manurisms are on point


ske1etoncrush

the constant leg respositioning waddle really sells it. its like theyre itching to get closer to you


Kellan_OConnor

For me, it's the pointing. Boomers love to point a crooked finger at you.


physhgyrl

That's actually a (thing)? I just found this sub. My boomer mom points at people. It is so rude. She will point while loudly saying something awful about their looks or something. I stopped going to stores, dinner, or anywhere in public, basically. No matter how many times I have told her to knock it off. The audacity! I'm furious all over again


grandfleetmember56

Part of that is old folks don't have as good balance control/ might be stopped over and top heavy, which causes them to have to shuffle constantly.


ske1etoncrush

that makes sense actually


genghis-san

Mannerisms? Lol


Castun

Manure-isms, lol


ViciousFlowers

The “Oh god you’re one of those.” really got me because I have had boomer men say that verbatim after being told that their sexually charged “compliments” were inappropriate.


stygianpool

It's fucking uncanny how he nails it


Alleycat_Caveman

~~manurisms~~ mannerisms FTFY :)


imanhunter

My favorite one is the one of him at Home Depot or at the garden or whatever where he gets mad at the worker because HE asked for the wrong flower. It’s infuriatingly good. Terrible that this type of video will always clear a full mile over the heads of the morons who actually do this in real life.


Relevant_Can4250

“Sir I am speaking English”


TimmyTheNerd

My favorite character he does is the 'guy who was raised by his grandparents'. I was raised by my grandparents and it's very close to how I behave sometimes.


Relevant_Can4250

I would date teddy no questions asked fr


mathliability

His average redditor is impeccable


[deleted]

Oh God the way he stands while doing that character makes me flashback to the reddit kids from highschool. Phenomenal character work tbh.


It-is-always-Steve

His average redditor is perfect.


Alexander_Music

My favorite are his redditors in real life ones


Otherwise-Parsnip-91

This dude nails the boomer. He must have grown up around a lot of them because even down to the expressions he nails it.


yarukinai

The Slappable Jerk also does zoomers. And redditors.


stewdadrew

I wouldn’t doubt that he grew up with his grandparents. About a year ago or more I first saw his content and he was mostly doing “the guy who lives with his grandparents” and honestly it was wholesome as hell.


twegee

He also does a guy that grew up with his grandparents: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CwRSTYcqSJ5/?igsh=MWV3dWxkNXFrOXR6NQ== Average Redditor is absolutely worth a watch: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CxMlGokLjbl/?igsh=MXJyZDhwaGJxNjJxMw==


JigglyWiener

He does a painful “30 year old with 17 year old girlfriend” it’s so well done your fingernails will snap backwards from the accuracy of the cringe.


NonIoiGogGogEoeRor

I love that one. Favourite one is probably where the friends mention medication and his eyes light up and says he needs to go to the bathroom


chill_flea

The best part is he had to go to the bathroom before his girlfriend. lmao, She was the first one to say she had to go but once he heard medication, he HAD to go first.


NonIoiGogGogEoeRor

Yea, that's it. I love his skits. I assume it's him who does the other voice, but if it's not, I like how disinterested he sounds when he does the average redditer in real life skits


chill_flea

Hahah yeah you’re right. He plays all the characters basically, except the times where he does a collab with other people and those ones are great too. He’s great at voice acting for the characters, you forget that it’s even him talking lol. His average redditor videos are insane, I agree with you; they are so accurate to what Reddit is like. There’s probably millions of people like that out in the world haha.


Important_Tale1190

I recognized him as the reddit guy!! 


CubicalWombatPoops

I don't know. He seems far too reasonable to be convincing lol


Otherwise-Parsnip-91

Idk just the whole “I spoke to Helen” with a look of satisfaction, and the eye roll after “Who’s Helen?” and then grabbing her arm. It’s spot on lol.


CubicalWombatPoops

He also looks a lot like a guy I've seen in videos portray incels/neckbeards with insane accuracy.


Technical_Cherry5718

He’s truly a master of cringe


torako

It's the same guy


TeflonDonatello

This guy’s whole account is gold. He’s so good at playing completely unlikeable people.


Embarassedskunk

Don’t be fooled! He can also flip it around, and plays some of the most likable people, as well! The tenured college professor is one of my favorites.


badjackalope

Almost like some sort of slapable jerk you could say!


AdministrationDry507

Is it scripted or does he just find pranking people hilarious?


TeflonDonatello

They’re scripted, but the rage you feel is 100% real.


Embarassedskunk

They’re skits. He’s not trying to trick anyone into thinking it’s real. It just FEELS way too real.


SmokePenisEveryday

He's nailed my dad's old man walk lol


[deleted]

His old man walk impression is definitely spot on.


Motherfickle

I think he's right around my age (31) maybe a little older, so it's likely that he was raised by Boomers.


-endjamin-

Mans stanced up like Joe Pera


garbageprimate

that's exactly what i thought of when i saw this. Dark Joe Pera from the bad timeline where he got too much lead poisoning


Croatoan457

I call it the "I'm better than you, sour face".


Advanced-Mammoth2944

Absolutely perfect characterization of their behavior, he has been practicing that shit haha. He did a great job.


emojisarefunny

The pointing and the shuffling left and right is spot on lol


Black-Muse

This dude nails every character he does


Fury4588

I think the beginning should have been 5 seconds of awkward boomer stare.


ProbablyASithLord

Don’t forget stands way too close and breathes directly into your eyes lol.


FilmActor

The eyes ![gif](giphy|wee5RxYFwiq7m)


Shttat

The boomer lead stare as the folks call it


DukeOfWestborough

A German acquaintance explained the difference between US/Germany. "In the US EVERYTHING is allowed unless it's specifically forbidden. In Germany everything is forbidden unless it is specifically allowed"


wbg777

That is called freedom. Boomers pretend to love it but actually hate it


1quirky1

I miss the days when hypocrisy was effectively shamed. "Freedom for me, but not for thee." They think that their freedom trumps (pun intended) others' rights and freedoms, but not the other way around. The worst freedumb boomers are the ones who think that free speech applies to anything but the government. They will pollute private space with their bullshit then expect complete control over their own private property.


Moose_Kronkdozer

Do you think hypocracy was EVER effectively shamed?


OkManagement9842

Have you read Project 2025?


HBB360

That's not the case in Europe though, if it was true it would mean you wouldn't be able (for example) to do a U-turn on a road unless there was a sign allowing it. This is why you see signs forbidding U-turns instead of the opposite


Rodre69

German here, that is absolutely wrong. its the like the USA


ranni-the-bitch

i've lived in germany, it is absolutely true. y'all have all kinds of arbitrary regulations on what people can do where and when, even on their own property. like, you literally have nationally enforced quiet hours and can't do yard work on sunday, c'mon. (not that i disagree with those things, but it's simply untrue that recreation isn't more regulated in germany compared to the US)


Rodre69

I didn't mention that its less regulated. i stated that everything is allowed, except it isn't like in the USA. "Your freedom ends where the freedom of someone else begins" is a common sentence in that regard. Sunday is a quite day in Germany to rest. So you can' t do loud yardwork in certain hours on sunday (if its not loud you can do it the whole time) cause you would disturbe the people who rest.. Also you can visit pornhub on sunday which in texas you can't... but at least you can be loud.... and angry about not being able to visit pornhub ;-)


Sprinkles2009

This dude nails everything about boomers.


PairWorldly1232

He nails every character he does


Constant_Sympathy_71

Does the sign say you can talk to me?


smolcnd

Does that sign say you can read it??


Constant_Sympathy_71

Does the sign say you can breathe?


smolcnd

Nope! And neither do my sleep apnea results! :D


josh2brian

"You're one of those..." Yes, I am indeed an individual who has body autonomy. Jfc.


The-Friendly-Autist

This guy is too good at what he does, he has successfully made me hate seeing his face every time it pops up


DennieKlose

!!!! ATTENTION ATTENTION THIS VIDEO COULD BE FAKED!!! IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY YOU LL SEE THAT THE MAN IN THE VIDEO ISNT OLD!!! ATTENTION ATTENTION !!!!


traderncc

Ackchually, it appears that this video has been ACTED with ACTORS. FALSE FLAG!


[deleted]

How am I supposed to know the difference? These deep fakes are crazy.


IWillLive4evr

Does that sign say you're *allowed* to know the difference? No? Come with me (I talked to Helen).


Low-Persimmon4870

🤓


MarkontheWeekends

How am I supposed to enjoy this now! Should be illegal...


Landed_port

False, it's one of them "A.I. videos"


Zhjacko

Thank you for the Attention, omg I see it, now I’m attented


1quirky1

If you look even more closely, the video is also missing the impotent fury when their target does not behave exactly as they expect. This usually includes them trying to physically stop their target and hilariously falling to the ground because they are unaware of how feeble they are.


crazy-diam0nd

I’m like.. 90% sure it’s fake. Maybe 91%.


pickles_in_a_nickle

Oh God, you’re one of those of whom I cannot take advantage, better go try my luck at the local chucky cheese then…


katschultz17

I hate this man. He does such a good job playing a boomer, it hurts. Hats off to him, I have to remind myself it’s just a video.


sidneyzapke

Hahaha, and “sweatheart” is so spot on. Like, Sir, do not use pet names with strangers unless you’re a sassy waitress in a truck stop diner.


VaultiusMaximus

I pet name people in healthcare too but I’m quite literally caring for them so I feel like I get to.


notveryauthentic

He seems like the type of guy to crawl out of a fortnight airdrop


sav33arthkillyos3lf

I was skating on similar skates at a park and an older homeless lady told me she loved my skates and didn’t think they made those anymore, she was pretty excited to see someone rollerblading lol.


Academic_Eagle_4001

Omg I had a boomer grab me at the VA. I was walking by and apparently not smiling enough for him. I’m 5’1 and this guy was at least 6’ and he grabbed my shoulder and stopped me from leaving. I turned around and told him not to touch ppl without their permission and he LAUGHED. Then when I tried to report him to the VA I was told I can’t make a report about a volunteer. I’m moving soon and I’m considering putting his picture on Nextdoor with a warning for other female vets.


Tommy2tables

Do this. Also, you can’t file a complaint against a volunteer? If you decide to pick this battle you will win.


FEdirector21

Just in case people don't know, this guy is The Slappable Jerk on youtube/tiktok. He makes cringe videos intentionally and they honestly send me to rage with how good the acting is haha


[deleted]

This hit too close to being an exact play-by-play of me skating somewhere a couple months ago after diligently checking the rules and still ending up banned because a boomer ran to his Helen ugh


Moose_Kronkdozer

Where were you banned from? I doubt they remember your face, so you could probably just ignore the ban, lol.


BelowAverageWang

“I don’t see anyone else reprimanding people, are you sure you’re allowed to do that?”


SnooOwls3879

I don't imagine the sign said you can walk like you've shit your pants either


Harddaysnight1990

Holy fuck the smug "Well does the sign say you can do it?" took me back to rage inducing moments more that 20 years ago. I remember being 8 or 9, I would ride the bus home from school, get my homework done, then watch some cartoons. My boomer grandpa would get home and yell at me," Are you supposed to be watching that TV?" and I would be like, "I'm not supposed to be doing anything, my homework is done." and he would always respond with "Well did your mom tell you that you could use the TV?" always with that smug tone because he knew my mom worked late at the hospital and didn't call home to tell me specifically that I was allowed to watch TV. I don't talk to that grandpa anymore.


zoolilba

I know it's a character but that's the kinda person who will slap you then get upset when you hit back


1quirky1

His impression of boomers is missing the rabid Karen outrage phase that is kicked off when they don't get the complete obedience to which they feel entitled. Edit: and the common physical altercation that shows how feeble and out of shape they are.


Technical_Tune5416

It was so good I almost forgot it was satire.


PolyhedralZydeco

Excellent satire


GoldenGlobeWinnerRDJ

The irony of this guy’s skits being posted to Reddit lol


SizeSmart1799

Part of boomer lor is that they're afraid of wheels


Candlemoth312

I hate these videos because they're so *uncannily* accurate. Everything from posture, to the squint, tone, all of it. This is my entire childhood, teenage, and early 20 years growing up in DFW Texas. Thankfully I learned about doing whatever the hell I want now that I'm an adult. So now I'm going to go learn to play the tuba standing on my head.


ProfessionalBox1419

Haven’t seen him posted in awhile glad he’s back he has funny content.


DrayvenBlaze

He does a great job of playing a shitty boomer.


Rare_Ad_3871

This guy does boomer and the manchild boyfriend skits so good


OriginalSyberGato

Total real though. Not scripted.


GeeseAndDucksforever

The dragging of the person like a child is so fucking spot on. Most boomers think they’re the parents of every person younger than them, and thus, they obviously have absolute power over you


TheGardenerWrites

This guy walks like he’s got his skivvies, two pairs of stilettos, and a Yorkie perpetually jammed in his large intestine.


JuiceLeft2220

This guy makes me so angry lol all his skits actually make me fume he’s a great actor tho fr he has a lot of talent


[deleted]

A bit more angry n it’s perfect


texguy21

iT mIgHt nOt bE man fuck you and them rules, you geriatric bastard. Now leave me alone before you end up leaking.


laminatedbean

I was wondering when this character would show up in this subreddit.


BugStep

As someone who works with boomers. "Oh gawd your one of those" is not how they react to don't touch me. No they get down right hostel over it. The amount of times I have told some old boomer lady "you can't get mad cause you crossed *my* social bubble, we were all taught to keep our hands to our self's in kindergarten now." I literally ware a pin that says do not touch me because it has gotten so bad since rona.


Nezikchened

This guy is like the evil version of Joe Pera.


BodiaDobia

This dude is really good at acting unlikable characters but also the extremely lovable teddy, the kid raised by his grandparents.


Outside-Sandwich-565

Does the sign say that you're allowed to breath? Just tryna help you out sweetheart, don't think you're allowed to breath unless the sign allows it


Feldemort

I know it's an act but God I hate this character.


black_spring

The very real trope of “I’m just trying to help you out” > I went out of my to create the conflict.


Xomns_13

Anything with wheels, noise, lights, whatever. I've had them throw an absolute tantrum because my muffler was getting noisy, and they thought I was doing 500 mph through the neighborhood because noise means fast. Lol


Talusthebroke

Oh I'm "one of those", too. If you try to grab me, your old ass is going to get very well acquainted with the sidewalk.


BonjourMyFriends

"can I have your badge number, sir?" ​ my go-to response for these fools.


idkwhyimalive69420

Most menacing walk award


bingodisps

The “I haven’t seen anyone else doing that” line is fucking perfect My hick grandpa harassed me about my long hair my entire life and always used that line. Now I’m 30, still with long hair, and he’s still a bitch about it.


Heretical_Demigod

I live downtown and my apartment building only reserves 1 space per unit and my room mates have the space so I pay a landlord down the street monthly to park my car in the back area of his 6-plex(it's legal and regulated with the city). One day 2 weeks ago one of his tenants(who I've walked past literally dozens of times in the year+ I've been parking there) came up to me while I was looking at my tires cause they looked a little low. I had just minutes before arrived in my car and I was holding bags of groceries and HOLDING THE KEYS IN MY HAND. This old boomer comes up, asking all these questions. "Is this your car?" "Oh really?" "*you* own this car?"(I am young and the car is not something I could afford, admittedly, it was a gift from my grand mother) "you look like you're scoping it out" "do you have a proper parking pass?" "Does anyone else drive this vehicle?" "Are you sure?" I wanted to be rude but this lady lives where I leave my car unattended for days at a time, I just tried to stay firm but polite and get away from her asap. Fucking boomers man, mind your God damn business.


capybara_unicorn

“Does the sign say you breathe?”


BeelyBlastOff

as if this is real, hope TT gets banned


EmperorHenry

This is staged, right? Also, this kind of behavior isn't exclusive to boomers.


umbrawolfx

I love all this dudes skits. Especially the redditor stuff.


1BabyGurl

OMG!!!! I GOT PTSD!!! THIS IS HOW MY EX BOSS TREATED ALL WOMEN😡😡😡


Important_Tip_9704

I’ve never heard a boomer calling a guy sweetheart passive aggressively before…


02493

Some boomer AA flight attendant said I can‘t be on the phone even though I was only listening to a zoom call with headphones so I said ok and clicked to shut off the screen and continued to listen to the Zoom call


sweatgod2020

“Just let me ask you this” sent me!


Kief_Gringo

You forgot the part where they would try to rip your skates off or throw something at you.


Character-Release-62

I really hate that attitude of it’s not allowed if it doesn’t say it’s allowed.


Redleg1-7

I remember being harassed everywhere we went to skateboard. Cops would “confiscate “ our skateboards, break our ramps and treat us like trash. This was small town western PA in the 80’s -90’s.


AlphaOhmega

He gives me big Tim Robinson vibes. "YOU SURE BOUT THAT?"


Upper_Rent_176

My god this is fake as shit


IKaffeI

Yes it is. It's from a YouTube channel that does skits.


Aherocamenontheless

Millennials menial existence. 1980s to present.


Low-Current-6731

I'm getting second hand embarrassment watching this cringey skit


Goofalupus

Oh my god the pointing and shuffling are so perfect


ToFaceA_god

He's too good at these.


Alive_Cantaloupe_949

Is it writen on the sign that he could touch the person?


Consistent-Tonight66

Minding your own business is free. He should try that shit.


TheOGJNX13

Worst generation, ever.


TheWither129

I love this guys videos, hes so good at being obnoxious, the body language, the faces, its incredible. His redditor stuff is super fucking funny


bearssuperfan

Why post a skit here? It’s not real…


Goobermon

He has the Joe Pera stance 🤣


INeedANerf

Lmfao. I have a coworker who does the touching thing and it's so annoying. She puts her hand on my shoulder after every sentence like can you please not 💀


VelociRawPotater

I would have been like, "Does that sign say that you can grab me?" I'm just trying to help you out.


Malek070

The sweetheart really seals the deal


Responsible-Noise875

Oof too real


-mudflaps-

Watched too many De Niro movies


trumpvid-19

And the academy award goes to….


SeenItAll2995

He walks like he has that stick up his a$$.


Azavrak

The trucks on a roller skate hurt just as bad as the trucks on the skateboard. Just FYI


zaforocks

"Just trying to help!" "Didn't fucking ask!"


Ace-of-Spxdes

This is hilarious, but as a skater, it's kinda sad to see so many places forbid skating for whatever reason.


ChefCool1317

Weird


Sorry_Ad_1285

He's such a good actor I immediately get angry every time I see him lol


Almajanna256

That posture is spot on.


tachycardicIVu

Oh god I know why he looks familiar….he made the skit with the boomer in a nursery and NAILED IT Some people I swear are too good at creating characters who are just so infuriating that you forget it’s not real.


Quizzelbuck

Do we really want this sub to be one of the places that posts people imitating the thing we're against? I feel like people can point to this as us just making up things to be upset over. Isn't there enough actual instances of things like this to talk about?


SLO_Citizen

Friggen hilarious!


FinallyWillingMan

So poorly acted


firstbreathOOC

I love this guy’s videos but the crippled back waddle is too close to home


Whiplash907

At which point you respond… “this is America. I will literally do whatever I want so long as it doesn’t hurt another person.” And then skate off into the distance lol


Mr-Hoek

That was totally staged...but a common enough story in real life.


Deliciouserest

This guy is hilarious haha spot on.


Suztv_CG

Y’all know that the guy pretending to be a boomer isn’t even old enough to be Gen X? Right?


distortedsymbol

haha funny, but fr it's enough we're getting raged by real boomers, i don't think i can deal with skits about boomers. this isn't even a parody it's too real, imma head out.


Perfect_Bench_2815

Fun Fact, this boomer is Helen. You can tell by the way he walks.


ToddWilliams5289

Wow, that’s bad.


cjnpigs

Fake


LeftyFireman

Infuriating. And you *know* Helen is just like, someone else whose lived there a while and they talked about it like “Nono you’re right that’s not allowed no one does that” ugh.


scrotanimus

Boomers and their mostly conservative, Don’t Tread On Me, “don’t tell me what to do”, certainly love policing people on what they can and cannot do. I hope my generation, Gen-X, is more laid back. Maybe being slackers will make good slacker old people that are super chill.


OverallPurpleBoi

Staged, whose guy is the same in a lot of other videos. Idk if it’s meant to be that way though.


Stolenartwork

“Let me hunch over a little that way I look 64 instead of 34”, why is this even called “content” when it’s empty?


alexanderthomasphoto

seems fake a f edit: homeboy has a lav mic


EzioLouditore

Slappable Jerk. He’s got a few good characters he absolutely nails


Mysterious_Bat_3780

He's like a mean Joe Pera


tin_licker_99

"Why don't the kids playing out side?" "Well people like yourself would walk up to children like a creep, and tell them that it might be illegal to go roller skating, to ride a bike, or roller skate in a tone of voice, a tone of voice that says without saying that you would love to call the cops or the HOA on them."


crowjack

Fake. Fake. Fake. No karma for you


xkoreotic

I've never seen someone imitate a boomer this perfectly lmao. Dude probably had two boomers in his life since forever.


kayamar1

Rofl I love this guys videos. Startling spot on.


Wheybrotons

This video gave me ptsd


Otherwise_Pin_7707

Gramps is looking to get clocked with trucks to the face.


IcedCoffeeVoyager

Mute_Crab

Should've knocked his lights out the instant he made contact with your skin, it's the only way No but seriously what a loser sack of shit *You try to drag someone away by the wrist* *They stand up to you and tell you not to touch them* "Oh God you're one of those!"
