       Apparently, kids these days know very little about the hardships of life. One incident still lives in my mind as if it happened yesterday. You know, people used to have to hard boil an egg every week so their computer mouse could scroll up and down the screen. Don’t ask me if that’s true or not, just follow this Twitter thread and see where it leads us.
       With each review, this poorly written novel turned into an unpolished gem of a boomer comedy. Let’s see what the older generation thinks of these “good old days.”
       If you are confused, remember that there are hundreds of young people who are equally unable to understand this.
       Bored Panda reached out to Aram Bartholl, a German artist who works on themes of surveillance, data privacy, technology, and the absurdity of digital life, to find out what exactly the egg and mouse meme says about our society. Visit Aram’s website to see more of his work.
       Alam was extremely positive about the prank: “I think it’s a really nice prank compared to the usual memes and jokes. The similarities between the classic rat ball and the egg yolk are really striking,” he told us. “It plays on the insecurity of the young audience who don’t really know if it’s true or not.”
       The artist believes that this is not about a generation gap, but a knowledge gap. “Of course, people used to have to spend a lot of time to get a computer to work or connect to the Internet. These days, these weird old technologies are hard to master,” he explains. “Yes, you have to clean the mouse ball from time to time, it’s always dirty and dusty.” In this sense, the joke is very close to the truth.
       Social media is so popular and fast these days that any seemingly ridiculous idea spreads very quickly. “All you need is a good photo and a good story.” Aram gives us an example: “Let me give you an example. In the past, the computer processor was cooled by coffee! You just put the cup on the processor and turn on the computer. The coffee is always hot!”

       For us vegan gamers, this is really hard. We tried making balls out of plants, but they weren’t the same and fell apart too easily. You’d never be able to play competitive games with these balls.
       I use my grandmother’s glass prosthetic eye. At first everything worked well, but then my grandmother started complaining that she couldn’t see well.
       Can someone explain to the author (and the internet) what exactly a baby boomer is? I’m 40 years old. My parents are baby boomers: I’m the height of Gen X/Millennials. They don’t know how to convert rat eggs to save their lives! The few of that generation who had access to computers at home simply left it to their children (who were already teenagers at the time) to solve any such technological problems. We also had to hook up their modems, change their cartridges, and program their VCRs.
       That’s right! Generation X and us old millennials are experts at using and cleaning rat yolk.
       Excuse me. I’m a 70-year-old baby boomer hippie living on the internet in the days of ARPANET and then TYMNET. Until someone figures out a better way to use egg yolks, we’re using Brussels sprouts.
       Sorry to piss off baby boomers. I certainly acknowledge that you were the ones who first created computers and developed many of the technologies we now take for granted. But it wasn’t until the 1980s that a mouse became commonplace in most offices, and very few people I knew owned computers at home until the late 1990s. My high school only had a few computers until 1993, when they built a special “IT lab” and that was the first time I used a computer. Most of the adults I knew at the time knew nothing about computers, but maybe that’s just the circle I was in
       I’m 53 years old, on the cusp of becoming a baby boomer, but I’m actually a Gen Xer. Replacing eggs took a long time. Kids these days don’t even know how hard it is! ! !
       You know, it was actually us Xenials who came up with it. Some Gen Xer stole it from his little sister.
       Well… Steve Jobs and Bill Gates were both baby boomers. The same goes for those of us who worked on computers all day in the 80s. I never asked young people to do any of that, and my last job before retirement was creating complex 3D CAD models for engineering projects.
       Imagine being a poor kid and having to choose between eating breakfast or eating a functioning mouse. I was hungry several times before I could eat that egg yolk. But it’s worth it!
       In my family, food was not wasted, so I ate the yolk straight from the mouse. I was grateful for every bit of food I could get. I used to eat 3-4 egg yolks a week just for the extra protein.
