These kids were children in the 2010s, and were adolescents in the 2020s. Many of them probably like doing things like Tiktok, Instagram, PlayStation 5 gaming, and a lot of other modern-day technology-based things.
I was born in 2005, so I suppose I can be called a late 2010s/early 2020s teen. I certainly do remember the things stated above. However, I was only engaged into a few of them - the other things never really got my interest.

Okay, college is probably one of the most overrated things in American culture. And please don’t lie and say that the vast majority of people go there for serious education. Many people just party there, but of course they probably won’t admit it and say that they want to get a bachelors in psychology or whatever. For some reason we apparently live in this messed up culture where someone who doesn’t go to college is seen as intellectually inferior, even if they aren’t in nearly as much debt, and actually make a decent amount of money (e.g. an electrician).
Again, some people may not want to admit this. But you probably know it’s true.

College is overrated.
Whether you want to admit it or not, it seems like for many people going to college nowadays is less about getting serious education and more about going there due to social pressure from parents, American culture, and/or to make an excuse to party a lot.
Of course, people probably don’t want to admit that, but I honestly think it’s true.
But apparently some Americans care way too much about their social status, so maybe they’ll abuse college and use it as a flex.
Like this:
Alex: I went to University at Buffalo.
Sam (who’s from an upper middle class white suburban family): I went to Yale. LOOK AT ME I’M SO SPECIAL AND SMART!!!
Alex: (might be secretly jealous, but probably because we live in the USA, going to college is a bragging right to show how “smart you are”, even if you’re a terrible person. So Alex keeps quiet).

Tom: Alex, do you know what movies Nick Heppenschmidt starred in?
Alex: Who the heck is Nick Heppenschmidt?

Hey Kyle? Hey! I'm Chris Griffin's father.
(mockingly) Hey I'm Chris Griffin's father!
Why that's not very nice, I don't sound like that at all. You're making me sound like Michael Stipe. Listen, I just want you to know what you did the other day was wrong.
(mockingly) What you did the other day was wrong!
You're not making this easy, Kyle.

Shut up, Kyle.
I'm Peter Griffin, I'm a dorky fat numnutz.
Kyle I said shut up!
You're a poopnose!
(brief silence)
Peter beats up Kyle and jumps out of the window.

An excellent cardiovascular exercise. Many people probably think that it's not so effective because it's not running and 'just walking', when really it can actually be just as good for weight loss as jogging.
Also, power walking is not simply walking at a faster pace. That's brisk walking. Power walking is walking at a fast pace (probably often even faster than brisk walking) with an arm swing.

Joe: Hey Alex, I'm going to be power walking a marathon tomorrow!
Alex: Ok, that's impressive, I guess.
Joe: Not just walking though. Power walking!
Alex: How hard can power walking a marathon be? You're just walking at a faster pace.

I can't believe what an idiotic idiot Sam is. Can't he just solve that simple math problem 2+2? And no! The answer is not 22!
