The signs of poor education are there. This sign can often be found in indolent kids whose education is incomplete, or adult Americans who are victims of the ‘no child left behind’ mess.
Are you suggesting that generation-specific vernacular is a sign of poor education?
Lul, this is literally mid. Oh, wait, I have a PHD. I suppose I am no longer allowed to speak how I want.
Just assume everybody is 12 and you’ll be good.
if you wanna tell apart gen z from gen alpha, ask them if they remember the teacher having them use these smartboards and making someone recalibrate the touchscreen to the projection when it was off:
afaik the new spoiled shits all get these in every classroom, they were rolling em out when i was graduating:
at least in places that can afford it. this might be more true in a few years
lethal amounts of cringe

For me personally the first tell is when they are morally loading every statement in an argument and are unable to engage with a topic directly. Adults should be able to discuss or debate certain topics on the value of the arguments alone without feeling pressured to include a declarative virtue signal in every clause.
Specifically in games: constantly repeating the flavor of the month insults. Typically some influencer comes up with a funny insult then for the rest of the month some kids use that one singular insult for every situation
Enthusiasm.

Trick question: assume everyone is a child until proven otherwise.

They’re the ones who are not obsessing over children’s toys or saying “adulting is difficult!”.
Extreme/insane positions on everything. Not just one or two insane positions, not just political extremism; when I say everything I mean EVERYTHING. No nuance allowed. And it has to be fully sincere, otherwise you are dealing with a Jreg.
There are milder versions of this, but I have rarely met a child that didn’t have a strongly held insane belief formed from their limited experiences. My favorite was a kid who told me that eating pasta supports fascism because it comes from Italy, so loving Italian products means you support Mussolini. Pizza is fine, though, because that’s American.
Kids Next Door on some recon huh
Nice try little Timmy, but I won’t be telling you how to pass as an adult.
Because you are a kid and you don’t know but are pretending to be an adult. Nice try!
That’s what a kid pretending to be an adult would say.
When I was your age, no kids did that, 'cause we had no damn internets back then. We had to actually walk outside to talk with others.
Tell me more about this “outside”. Can I get it on Amazon?
And now you’re here, arguing with kids, because you’re also a kid… Nice try.
Everyone knows you hop on another kid’s shoulders and put on a trenchcoat, fedora, and sunglasses and gave the name Robert Businessman.
Poor grammar/orthography
What do birds have to do with anything?

Everything!

You made a perfect example of the original question there. Emoting in italics like an old geeky chat. I’d bet you’re no younger than 35.
How do you do, fellow geriatrics?
Dunno, better call in an etymologist to study what bugs the birds are eating.
“Ahh no see, you wanted entomology man, which coincidentally means study of bugs”
What about the study of Ents?
Nice try, kid
This doesn’t seem to hold true for native English speakers. The number of old white North Americans on Facebook who haven’t figured out punctuation, capitalization, or things like their/there/they’re is astounding.
As many as 16% of US adults may be considered functionality illiterate in English. A further 26% have serious difficulty gaining understanding from what they read in English. From a department of education study.
Essentially a third of the country can’t read much beyond the cat in the hat, if even that.
Rest assured it’s not just US problem. The same happens in other languages too and it may be even worse there.
