Z-tism 

People in Generation Z that have trouble in public situations or dealing with day to day functions that other generations see as normal daily functions.

In that moment her Z-tism kicked in and she did not know how to answer the question or even understand the question that the server asked her. So she just looked at the server with a blank stare while her Z-tism attempted to process the question of "Would you like a side with that?"

Z-tism 

A neurological condition describing the chronic under socialization and emotional irregularities observed in some members of Gen Z, often attributed to excessive use of Discord, Tik Tok, or from mindlessly watching YouTube brain rot content on an iPad during formative years. First coined by Greg Tish on The Greg Tish Show at Tallahassee Talk Radio 93.3 FM.

Mom: Son you've been home all day; don't you have any friends from school or work you can hang out with?
Son: All of my friends are on discord and not in America. I'm not sure how to go about forming interpersonal relationships since all my friends are from the internet.
Mom: oh no! My son has Z-tism!

Bob: Wow is that Darth Vader?! That's the guy from Fortnite!

Sally: No Bob! Darth Vader is not from Fortnite! Your error in media literacy stems from a larger issue of not broadening your horizons by watching classics such as Star Wars. Instead, you left your knowledge of pop culture up to YouTube autoplay and are only being shown brain rot content pushed by the algorithm such as Cocomelon and MrBeast. I'm afraid Bob this is a classic example of Z-tism!
