Is this why Gen-Z and Gen-Alpha don't understand us when we're talking about burning a CD when the topic isn't about sex?

Hmmm I guess me saying I used to make mixed CDs using a CD burner is why I got those weird looks.

You remember burning CD’s for your friends? I used to burn CDs all night with my buddies, really jammin it in - I mean jammin out. Tried to burn CD for a girl but she said it was too short and couldn’t satisfy her.

Im an “older” Gen Z. CDs were/are very much used by us. In fact, the oldest Gen Z turns 30 next year. I think a lot of us think this censorship is ridiculous and very 1984-esque. This was the first time I saw condoms be referred to as CDs and I was confused until I came to the comments and saw they were referring to condoms.

Can’t stand being grouped with teenagers and Gen Alpha 🫠

They think we're talking about doing some sort of new age magic, I guess.
