Something tells me that the generation before were the ones old enough to coin phrases while they played video games while we just did it when grounded. (I say we, I mean me). Donkey Kong had a bunch of his own video games and was a playable character in a host of others—most notably, Diddy Kong Racing on the N64 which was the BOMB—and TIL, the first game with DK and Mario in it, was released in 1981. Meaning they’re just below the cutoff for Millenials and that clearly, they were the ones to coin the aforementioned phrase.
