"I've never heard of ZOOM" thats because you wouldn't most people under the age of 25 have never heard of ZOOM this is do to the company that produced ZOOM replacing it in the early 2000s do to cultural change in the US
MY MIND IS BLOWN
Fast-forward to the 90s and ZOOM was rebooted so naturally the phase of "ok Zoomer" was back in some level of popularity which this time actually ended up leading to an entire generation actually being called Zoomers
Now I know what you're thinking ....

furthermore the very name Zoomer was a play on Boomer, they were named this because the shows creators hoped that it would catch on as the name of the next generation but that didn't happen.

I just realised that "ok Boomer" is a derivative "ok Zoomer" which originated in the 70s as a slightly derogatory way of referring to a child. It was a reference to the original ZOOM television show on PBS which was about a group of kids called the "Zoomers"....
