We geezers love to hate new social media, and TikTok, where kids post short videos of themselves, is the latest thing to despise.

When I say geezers in relation to new social media trends I mean any of us over age 35. That’s the age when the hatred factor for TikTok rises dramatically, according to surveys done by PCMag.
