Probably Superbad or the Hangover movies. I would add Step Brothers but didn't hit the Gen-Z audiences as much lol

No you’re right, it’s mostly millennial lol but surprisingly Gen-Z mentions them. Maybe cuz Superbad comes and goes on TikTok

Gen Z lacks real comedy

It’s because Gen Z doesn’t know how to be real. They have no idea who they authentically are. They got brought up in the world of curated social feed that never goes away so they are terrified of making mistakes. They love selling out and don’t have a punk bone in their body.

They have positive qualities and they can be very determined. I don’t mean to dump on them.

But if you want comedy you have to be authentic and you have to take risks. Two things that Gen is allergic to

Im probably not the best person to ask - I found out recently that my new direct report doesn’t get references to Office Space or Mean Girls because they’re both over 20 years old now.

Idk what office space is, but I know mean girls

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .

I've never worked on anything for TikTok and hope I never have to. TikTok is from hell. I was on it one time for about 10 minutes and could feel myself becoming mentally unwell in just those 10 minutes. The human brain is not designed to deal with the sheer amount of sensory overload that app gives you. I'm pretty sure TikTok is one of the main reasons we are constantly hearing about how much Gen Z struggles with mental health.
