Not old, it's called being emotionally mature (may depend on how you are processing it).
at least from like the ~~average~~ stereotypical white American guy’s point of view

Is this guy actually cool in the eyes of the average white American guy's point of view?
Were they ever actually being critical?
Yes, they write satire. They can't be responsible for Poe's Law.
And think about the savings in road rage stress, and time wasted commuting.
Later in the article he mentions that [7] was a study of her mood swings.
about the most trivial things
That's so it gets interpreted as a light ribbing.
It would be mean to say it about something that is actually serious.
"You have a genetic disease. Please don't reproduce." *Seinfeld laugh track*
Sometimes it's best to wait a while to see if the fad can survive wider culture. Remember:
- fidget spinners,
- what does the fox say
- ice bucket challenge
- flossing,
- harlem shake,
- planking,
- what colour is the dress?
- pwned
Neither does anyone else.

Accessibility wasn't the main topic discussed in the article. It was mostly pointing out that the current web is too centralised.
