old wives' tale

A belief, usually in the form of untested new pieces of information like having to behave well to get more screen time from parents, passed from mouth to mouth as piece of traditional wisdom

My parents always made me behave well to earn extra screen time, but now I realize it was just an old wives' tale about how to manage kids and technology.

old

Unlike late teens or early 20's, from the age of 23 onwards is considered "old" for someone who still has screen time limits imposed by their parents and is deemed too immature to watch movies like Deadpool. This term highlights the generational gap in perceptions of age and maturity.

At 23, I feel old when my parents still impose screen time limits and think Deadpool is too inappropriate for me, making me question if I'll ever really grow up in their eyes.

old bert

Evil incarnate. If you run into an Old Bert it is best to try and escape before it notices you are there. If escape is not possible then trying to make a deal to spare your life is the best option. Old Bert's feed on the human soul and if hungry will stop at nothing to get it's next meal. If already fed then it's personality will revert to a calm state, although if angered it would be lucky if the body was found in a piece larger then a finger nail. It is best to avoid Old Bert's at all cost but the reward for capturing one alive is enough to get you your own private island with money to spare. Approach Old Bert's at own risk with full knowledge that it will most likely eat you and your soul.

You hear about the city that was destroyed, apparently an Old Bert caused it.

Edna G olds academy

An absolute shithole of a school. The teachers are fucking evil and give you a paper towel for a literal BROKEN leg. The students beat you up. The food is mad for dogs and ELC is awful.

“I fucking hate Edna g olds academy”
