And what the hell are all supposed to mean? Also, get off my lawn.

EDIT: I’m talking about “cold”, not “cool”. I’m seeing it being used along with snowflakes and freezing emoji, sometimes even saying “ice”.

    I recently had someone explain to me what “And that’s where I came in” meant.

    I expect to explain to people why we say “roll down the window”, or what the save icon is, lol

      What? Roll down your window is self explainitary. You put your hand on the window crank…and…huh. I guess I haven’t seen one of those in years…

      Ok, but the save icon, that’s because of the floppy disc. You just put your floppy into…the…huh. I guess no one uses floppys anymore…

      …wait, am I old???

        “To make it more modern, we could make the save icon a CD!”

        What’s a CD? Oh, wait, that looks like…do you mean a Blu-Ray? Nobody uses Blu-Rays anymore.

            “oh, I think my dad’s old computer had a hard drive. I’ve got an SSD in mine, I think, but I just put everything in cloud storage.”

                Then it’d just look like a generic building or something! Haha
