It just fueled the debate more. I don't see a lack of stripes, I see an oversized stripe.

    Zebras have black skin. They are black with white stripes.

    Neat, a lot of the time you just see pictures of zebras with funky coats as foals and not as adults, but this one looks pretty grown.

    It occurs to me that that joke doesn't work as well as it used to since newspapers are much less widely read now.

    Does generational mean anything specific in this meme or does it just mean huge? When did generational stop meaning pertaining to a generation?

    Meaning multiple generations of people have debated the question

    So it's a multi-generational debate?

    Oh interesting, as something of a pedant myself, I didn't see anything wrong with it, what would be the difference in your eyes?

    I've exhausted my interest in this but

    IMO generational is -relevant or pertaining to a particular generation- but what was really meant in the meme is that this is something people have talked about for a long time, in fact for multiple generations, and generations are irrelevant to what's being discussed. Ancient would be a better adjective or time honoured, or age old. Zebra stripe debates aren't particular to gen alpha, gen z, millenials, or boomers.

    I just think generational is a trope in and of itself and is losing its meaning through over use.

    TitleI didn't forget gen x I left them out on purpose to trigger them.

    Thanks for the response!

    Im not triggered though lol.

    I agree with that but only from a cultural perspective, not if someone is talking generations of a family or in regards to heredity/family
