As a man in my 30s who enjoys VR, good god the kids torment me.
I came up with a decent reply. “Why are you on Oculus, old man?”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize a bunch of fucking toddlers made the Quest. I’m proud of you guys! I was under the impression that VR was mostly created by my generation, but it’s cool to see your elementary school science project took off like this. Congrats on your A+! You’re building the future.”
Usually shuts them up or makes them fumble and a few kids get on my side with it haha.
I’ve been the old sage sitting in the building in Pavlov Containers giving the youngins life advice. Always a wonderful experience when they aren’t bullying me or when I bump into a fellow old.
That's way too much effort. Just go with the ol "because I got tired of being on your mom".
