When your boomer parents still think that you can apply for jobs by physically going to a business and asking if there are any jobs available, just like they did back in the day, before the popularity of the internet or pre-2000.
Dad: why don't you get off your arse and get a job.
Son: I've been looking online for weeks and applied for everything I can, there's nothing new.
Dad: Your not looking hard enough, go out and knock on some doors. That's what I did when I was your age.
Son: Dad, nobody does that anymore, employers and job agencies do everything online now. Even the job centre posts their own stuff there.
Dad: omg kids these days, don't know how good they have it. When I was your age I walked 20 miles to work and back barefoot whilst carrying a bag of cole on my back, I got paid 2 bob a week, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
Son: stfu dad, stop lying and get with the times.

Get the knock on some doorsmug. A person that isn't treated as anything, but acts the role of being a friend.
When someone isn't regarded as a person, who's feelings are ignored, and who's job is to listen and simply be here because you want to.
Someone who's only purpose is to be a helping friend, but is ignored, mostly emotionally, like they aren't even someone.

Person A: "Who's that guy over there?"
Person B: "Oh, he's Person C's friend. He doesn't really say anything and is only here when Person C needs help. No one really pays attention to him since his only role is to help and not be an actual person."
Person A: "Oh, so he's a knock-off friend."

Get the Knock-off friendmug. The activity of KNOCKING and running away from a door!
Not Knick Knack as its refered to by people from Dublin.
A Knick Knack is a useless item found within a home, not something used in knocking on a door and running away.

Get the The Bock Knockmug. Someone in prison who waits until their cell mate falls asleep. Once asleep, the Artist knocks them unconscious and proceeds to rape them violently.
“They call me The Original Knock-Out Artist. Pass out in my cell and I’ll turn that ass into a Penitentiary Picasso!”

Get the Knock-Out Artistmug. When you are urinating when suddenly you need to violently shit. Then, you stop pissing and turn around, firmly pressing your puckered ass onto the seat and unloading an ungodly amount of assham into that poor, poor toilet.
Larry: "Damn, I thought you were taking a leak!"
Jim: "Yeah, sorry. I had a Knock, Knock Motherfucker moment."
Larry: "A what now?"
Jim: "Yeah, sorry. I had a Knock, Knock Motherfucker moment."
