Popular Post Seshi Posted March 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 27, 2019 So Gen Z slang is crazy. I’ve had a hard time keeping up since I’m not really into pop culture- never really have been. But here’s a video describing the topic a bit more Oh and Gen Z peeps, can you either confirm or deny? My nephews are always saying “yeet” so I can confirm that one at least 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illusion of Terra Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 savage Seriously though, I mostly know slang terms from comments on youtube. But they are changing so often that it's difficult to know which ones are current.

Ryan Dave Jimenez Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Fam means friends???? I've been using it wrong. I thought it meant Family. Just kidding though. I guess Weird flex but okay? Kinda annoys me. And the part where kids "dab"? I mean the Power Rangers do that. haha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally can't stand "Roasted". One of my coworkers uses it constantly and it is getting to be really annoying. "Baby-daddy" is another one I find annoying. Please find some other way to refer to your ex...like I don't know....your EX. I had another coworker in the past who talked about her "Baby-daddy" almost nonstop. Wanted to pull my hair out. I don't need nor do I want an explanation that you had a child with the guy everytime you want to refer to him, no matter how short the explanation is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leinwandname Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Since I don't live in an english speaking country, I hardly ever hear english slang that often - really, mostly through the internet. I do use 'yeet', 'sheeesh' and 'skurr' from time to time (and other hip hop ... noises), though mostly ironically. I often use 'stacy', 'chad' and 'normies' with my friends, and I like to annoy my non weeb friends with 'can I get an UWU?' What annoys me is when people talk like: "yo, yo, dude look at this! shit's sooo liiit, brah." (and yes, some people do that in German too. They don't even bother translating it...)

Greeneyes Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I wonder what foreigners think of english slang like they are learning the language and hear someone say Yeet and like wtf is that.. I mean who can define what yeet means? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illusion of Terra Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 @Greeneyes For non-natives slang is a lot like dialect. The differences between y'all, all y'all and y'all all, is just as weird as the different uses of yeet. But in general you get a rough idea by hearing people use it, yeet. Also you don't really hear too much slang if you are not living in an English speaking country because most things you hear in English will be rather professionally made stuff that use standard English. So you don't really even hear about slang that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efaardvark Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 This thread is giving me flashbacks. When I was in about second grade we lived for a year or so in Huntsville, Alabama. Back then that was pretty deep south and the accent/slang was pretty thick. My dad was from S. Carolina so he was used to it, but my mom and my brothers and I had lived on the west coast (US) for virtually all of our lives. Fortunately kids that age learn fast so after a few months my mom developed the habit of using us kids as translators. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nono Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Scoop, which means pick me up. One of my coworkers says that. "I'm waiting for my girlfriend to come scoop." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King_Sama Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 "On Fleek" I think people have stoped using it but I had that slang with a passion. I'd literally cringe every time I heard that phrase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanaApril Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 The slang or saying "That's what she said" bothers me a lot and I really don't like when guy's say it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skoodle-ditty Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 The word “Bae” annoys me a lot. I really dislike the term “baby-daddy”, like find another word... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakura Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 My God that video reminded me of trying to have a conversation with my 13 year old sister lol. I admittedly say "yeet" a lot but only because I like the way it sounds~ lmao. "Weird flex but okay" is really the only one that gets on my nerves for no particular reason. So does finding these phrases slightly annoying and confusing mean that I am getting old now? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
