The Outside They Built
Older folks: “Why don’t kids go outside anymore?” The outside they built:
The meme contrasts older people wondering why children no longer go outside with a photo of a congested, commercialized roadway full of traffic, utility poles, and businesses. The punchline is that the “outside” built by older generations is an unpleasant and dangerous environment, so children understandably prefer staying indoors. It is used as a sarcastic reaction to complaints about kids’ screen time or lack of outdoor play.
