Face palming

Face palming 🤦 When an old person try’s to take authority over a thing you have put your mental energy into, love, are passionate about or have a interest in, despite having no previous interest in it or way it is currently useful in thier life Examples: 1. You are really passionate about art and have bought these fancy markers, while talking about them in a group setting they switch the subject of your passion about art and these markers to them by asking where they can get them…the old person “face palms” you by asking where they can get them, making your love and interest in something about them. 2. You are a kid who is saving up for an iPhone and your grandparents figure out about this and how they work… the next time you go over to there house they both have iPhones and bring up how cool they are without acknowledging how you were the one who showed them it. The best way and only way to deal with or help someone being facepalmed is to make the conversation weird and awkward… confusing the old person and making them not able to compute what is happening. Eg. your a gen z and see the person in scenario 1 being facepalmed by the old person. You start laughing weird and saying hip gen z things like “gyatt” distracting the old person with your “young generation disrespect” successfully steering the conversation away from the markers or better ending the conversation with the old person all together.
