    Ellen lives in a weird parallel reality. There were clocks in every class I ever attended from kindergarten onwards, even my literal boomer dad struggles with refolding maps, and actually there's A LOT of people my age (20) and younger on my campus who are into things that she thinks we've never encountered. The photography club on my campus is full of people who collect and repair old cameras and develop their own film, cooking classes are always full the day registration for classes open (bc no one's parents teach them how to cook), we make up the majority of the people at bookstores around town, and there's a swing dance revival club on my campus. Out here in the real world, people have always liked things from the past. There's no reason for Ellen to hate us. We like the same things. We're just not hissing at people who don't like those things, because we have that thing boomers always lack - manners.

      It's ok. Most Boomers are so out of touch these days and they are fearful that the "Modern Age" is destroying their world. I'm a Gen X'er and I belong to a lot of plastic model building groups with Boomers in them. The Boomers are always saying "The hobby is dead. Kids play on their phones and don't build anything! It's not like it was when we were kids in the 1960's!". I owned a hobby shop for years and most of the model builder kids (Gen Z) like to build Gundam and Warhammer figures or they are in the hobby because their parents are teaching them or they simply want to be creative outside of the digital world. Also, if the hobby was dead, we would be seeing shut down notices from the manufacturers instead of new product announcements. Try telling that to the Boomers and they deny everything you are trying to tell them. then the next month, they start complaining that the hobby is dead all over again.

    Even if it was easy to fold a map normally, it would be hard to do so if you have not opened it yourself. If I have a brochure already opened, I would need longer time to see the lines and understand which way to fold. But if I open it myself, I would be able to remember how it looked, and at least a bit of the folding pattern. Meanwhile, Ellen opens the map quickly, doesn't give the teenager time to adjust to see what it is and expects it to be petfect.

      Ellen and her audience is fully aware that these old technologies are outdated and useless today, she even joked about it right at the beginning. Ellen starts with talking about Encyclopedias, how they were these giant books that everyone used to have, but they completely disappeared nowadays because internet makes it so easy to get that information. She said that she wanted to know more about what happened to the encyclopedias, so she googled it. *audience laughs*. Ellen finds out that set of encyclopedias cost 800 dollars today and she jokes that you can get them at 100% off because encyclopedias are outdated and its all available on the internet for free. convinietly that part is taken out of this video.

      Honestly, unless you were doing a highly advanced activity that requires hard work and dedication regardless (like an advanced martial arts tournament for kids, where you had to spends hours training to compete), getting a participation trophy typically was a sign of failure. Like, congratulations, all you did was be there. Everything you did was done badly.

Not like each of them brought up one of those individual things, 4-5 different people mentioned all of them in one conversation. I didn't register that this episode of Ellen was even a thing, but it feels like it might have been related....

      Not to mention, there’s so much information in the world. A toddler in China speaks Chinese 100% better than I do. It’s just a different kind of knowledge, and that’s okay. If I had an hour to learn anything, I’d probably choose something more immediately important than how to use a freshly obsolete technology.

      I was born in the 70s and grew up with a rotary phone. Ellen is much older than I and probably used them. But it's still doesn't mean that Gen Z needs to learn obsolete technology.
      Why don't we give Boomers telegraphs and crank-wind Model T cars then make fun of them for not knowing how to use them? Can they wash their clothes with a wringer, hand churn butter or operate a pot belly stove? Technology changes, and we're not special because we know how to use something obsolete. I don't know why so many Boomers seem to think so.

I mean, I also wouldn't expect anybody to know their way around a punch-card computer or how to fix a Ford Model T, because that is OLD SHIT that we left behind and moved on to better things. Ironically, boomers often don't know how to use current technology, which is way more important. Maybe that's why they try to "get back" at younger people with BS like this.
