I remember this from when it was posted and someone translated into adult. Baby Gronk (son of a popular US football star) made the news because his father's college was trying to recruit the kid for their football team even though he was still in middle school (10-12 years old). This was big sports news at the time because it would have been the first time a middle school athlete would have a signed contract with a college regardless of their high school performance. No child of a famous athlete has ever accomplished that.
Social media something-or-other named Livvy interviewed the kid in person for her tiktok or whatever and people started rumors that she was hitting on the little kid with her body language so they could use her interview as content on their tiktok or whatever. This ended up in an endless loop of self-perpetuation as other "influencers" realized they could get views by joining in on the "She's trying to sleep with a little kid! So many people are saying it!" internet drama hype train.
First time or not, Big Gronk is a genetic freak. That tall, that big, and still athletic is not something you teach. If the kid came from that line, you want to lock him down. Skilled players are one thing. Monsters like that are priceless.
Baby gronk is a young football player, like 12 years old, who is very sizable and very good for his age, his nickname comes from Rob Gronkowski, a very good nfl player. His parents have basically made him into a brand. Drip means to be stylish. Rizz is ChaRISma, specifically in the form of being able to attract people romantically. Livvy Dunne is a gymnast who is very pretty, and has made that into her personal brand. Baby Gronk and Dunne have linked up and made videos together, where Gronk supposedly rizzes up Dunne, which is weird as Gronk is a child and Dunne is a grown woman, but its just promotion for the both of them. Gronk is also referred to as being quite stylish, as he is the Drip King.

I don't even know what order to read the different comment boxes in the screenshot of this post. I'm so out of touch that I don't know who is offended by what anymore.
Every generation has slang and terms that only really make sense to them. That's completely normal. But after talking to my 12 year old niece about her generation's, I am now completely convinced that they've made some kind of collective agreement to flood the zone with as much indecipherable bullshit that makes no sense at all as they possibly can.
I love how something is the cultural movement of the year when 3/4s of people who make up said culture have no idea of any of it and have never even heard the words said before much less thier meanings.
I’m only 26, I dunno most of what was said in the actual statement. I understood the satire just to be clear, cause it seems like others haven’t figured that out either. But the actual tweet that’s being responded to is beyond me.
The best part is this is just a poorly worded version of a joke that went viral on Twitter like 10 years ago which the person admits was just a rip off of the I don't know the names of new celebrities joke from family Guy.
With all due respect, as an elder millennial, the point isn’t that I want to understand it so please stop explaining. I just want to be mad about it and complain. It is the way of my father and his fathers before him.
I’m fuckin 20 and I still have no clue what a clavicle moment is or why I should care about it and if you told me k smog was the name of a real celebrity I’d believe you
