That’s tight

Everything is when you’re phat
Wake me up when dope and rad re-enter the lexicon.
What about “Mint”
It’s a plant in the genus Mentha, typically aromatic. But that’s not important right now.
Surely you can’t be serious?
Don’t call me Shirley.

I am, much to my wife’s dismay.
I’ve been here the whole time.
I also really like rad.
(That one doesn’t work with the -o unfortunately)
I feel like every time I hear “neat” it’s meant semi-sarcastically. Like, okay, I guess that’s kind of interesting, but it’s not really relevant or I don’t know how to continue the conversation.
“So, not that it relates to anything we’re talking about, but I’m a world champion in this one very niche thing that you’ve never heard of.”
“…neat.”
That’s how I use it most of the time. That and “nifty”
It’s VERY mild approval. Like a step above OK. I’m acknowledging the existence of the thing and maybe nodding my head or giving a thumbs up, but I’m forgetting it immediately as soon as it leaves my field of view.
Awesome! It’s totally radical and all the PHAT people know how to be hip. You better be there or be square dig it?
I say dope and rad all the time.
Dope never left mine.
I’m sorry to hear that, but yeah, heroin is one hell of a drug ^/s
One of the very few I’ve never tried! Absolutely how I plan to go out, if I learn I’m terminal.
Seconded.
Dope things gonna dope
Far out!
Groovy
Tubular
Gnarly
Righteous
Streets Ahead!
Swell
I just started saying rad recently. I’m almost 40 though so… yeah.
Been doing it for years myself, currently advocating for “def”
Will anyone pick it up? No. Do I care? Nah.
k lol
Oh good. Always thought rizz was stupid because it sounds too close to jizz.
I picked up shizzle for rizzle from Tiny Tina and works as a rated G version of the shit meaning either the genuine article or the diggity dank.
“shizzle for rizzle” is snoop dogg slang from the 90’s
my nizzle
Short for chajizzma
And now I know what rizz is short for! Never knew.
I’m cool, no one can tell me otherwise.
Ok but now I want to know what their new words are.
What is skibidy
An old woman on the slopes perhaps? Kewl.
I’m in my 30s and i just find it funny. It’s funny because it’s random as heck, just like dragon dream feet or free bird or engineer nope. The reason people dissing it is really just because they don’t want to be associated with kids.
It’s hilarious! As dumb as it sounds, the series is a good example of show don’t tell world building.
I don’t care what anyone says, I’m 38 and the skibidi toilet saga is epic. I’m waiting on part 74 right now.
Sure, the first 20-ish shorts are repetitive and kinda annoying, but DaFuq!?Boom! evolved some crazy lore after that.
Like all epic things, it’s the fans who drive it into the ground.
Yeah, to be honest, I’ve never met another skibidi toilet fan offline.
I watched it and I still don’t understand. Is this like the Yatta of the new generation?
Please, hold on to this reality as long as you can.
I read LMAO is reversed if something is extremely funny and I was confused af for a minute
OAML!
Orgasmic Atomic Major Laughter
Octopus-Accelerated Machine Learning
Ostrogothic Advanced Marxism-Leninism
I’ve only ever used them ironically, so I can confirm I’m a linguical mastermind
Just like how people should ironically updoot my comment here, since I am very low on Lemmy karma and need some 👆👆👆
Slay and Serve are very much alive in drag communities.
They’ve been around before and will stay around after. Pop culture was just borrowing it.
Rizz was always cringe.
Skibidi is literally after a toilet meme, slay is old AF and I’ve never heard of serve.
I think “rizzler” is pretty funny when used ironically
Dear Batman,
It’s the Rizzler…
So close
Whoa, this is heavy!
There’s that word again! Is there something wrong with the Earth’s gravity in the past?
You mean mavity?
6th graders are not arbiters of slang. 15-24 year olds are.
We can still say “fuck!” When we fucked up right?
We’re back to “crud” and “shucks” now boomer
Oh crud!
I fuck up on the regular, should I be concerned about my karma scores in regards to exclaiming “ah, fuck” or classics such as “good job fuckknuckle”?
Shit I gotta use that!..fuckknuckle!
I will never stop saying “shiver me timbers”
And I, “Damn the torpedoes!”
I still speak as if I’m from Ooo, so…
Ooo?
Its the world that Adventure Time takes place in.
Ohhh
Ooo*
Many many years in the future, long after the great mushroom war, that is what they will call the Earth.
(Adventure Time)
The world from Adventure Time. It’s heavily implied to be a post-apocalyptic earth, which is wildly mutated from the present day by an atomic war. IIRC, the stated backstory is that the land of Ooo is what remains after the Great Mushroom War. We see glimpses of the world immediately following the war, and it looks like a Fallout situation, with packs of survivors, radiation exposure, etc… And eventually, it settled into the Land of Ooo.
Don’t forget the frozen businessmen who almost ruined the world again.
Everyone mentions the mutagenic bombs, no one mentions the ball of fuck you energy that ate Europe. I like to describe Adventure Time as a potent mixture of Candyland and Gamma World.
Algebraic!
mathematical!
Someday cringe will be cringe, and sick will be sick again.
Sick
I was playing pokemon with my 7 year old nephew and he kept saying “{x pokemon} has sick moves bro”, so maybe that time has already come. Although to be fair he also said “These noodles are on god” and then leaned over and whispered “that means really good.” So maybe he’s not exactly the best arbiter of gen alpha vernacular lol
At that age, kids are absorbing stuff from their parents still because they haven’t yet realized that their parents aren’t cool.
I wonder if that’s what keeps the whole thing at least somewhat coherent. While a generation of teenagers figures out how they will talk, the younger generation absorbs words and phrases from both their immediate seniors as well as their parents’ generation, resulting in a base that’s still close to where their parents are. Maybe without that, we’d have entire new languages every few generations.
Hmm that might even be the mechanism that causes fashion trends to repeat on a 20-30 year cycle.
That is so slay
