My petty gripe: Thumbs-up emojis say I don't care' please stop using them on my big news
Briefly

The generational divide in communication is stark: what might seem like a triumphant message to the young can be met with indifference from older family members.
I can't help but wonder if, when we come face to face, my family would react with tears of pride, while through text, it's merely a thumbs up.
It seems when expressing excitement over a game, the younger generation's enthusiasm clashes with the older generation's misunderstanding of what truly matters.
This experience leads me to ponder if the embarrassment I feel in public is mirrored by older relatives in the digital sphere.
