On God, this meme is bussin’ fr no cap
Lit still slaps fr but y’all can miss me with rizz no cap that’s shit is lidless, I get bitches newayz.
Which is why I call everyone “bro.”
I’m a 37 year old woman.
I call everyone baby. Young? Baby. Old? Baby. Man, woman, black, white, purple with green polka dots? “What’s up, baby? How are you?” I’m a middle aged white guy.
There’s a 60-odd year old black guy that comes to one of the bars I frequent. I always greet him with “What’s up, baby?” He always says “Same old, baby, how you doin’?” I have no idea how that became normal because it feels so weird explaining it but it feels super normal saying it.
Ever get in trouble for it with someone who doesn’t know it’s your signature, baybeeeee
Nope. It may be because of the tone. I don’t do an Austin Powers thing. I say it the same way I’d say buddy or friend.
Thinking harder about it, generally if I’m meeting someone for the first time I use their name because I’m trying to get the hamster that runs the wheel in my brain to put their name somewhere I’ll remember it. By the time we’ve interacted a while it’s very likely they’ve seen me say it to half a dozen of my friends.
Just substitute with mate, bro
I’m not your mate, guy
I’m not your guy, buddy
I’m not your buddy, pal
I’m not your pal, himbo
Bro I feel you, dude.
I feel you, homie
I gave someone some somewhat joking advice to use “dogs” as a gender neutral alternative to “guys”. I ended up trying it just for fun and it stuck.
2060 Poet Laureate reads from new collection, “Skibidi Days, Ohio Nights”
Koo
My dad started texting koo in the mid 00s, meaning “cool”
It wasn’t koo then and isn’t koo now but I use it almost daily.
Just makes me think of Cartman from South Park
Kewl.
Happened to my friend when I was growing up with this exact phrase… This is so dated now
That’s wack.
That’s dope!
All that and a bag of chips!
And how!
No cap brother, no cap
Sheesh?
The early 2000s version of Sheesh or the 2020 version they thought they had come up with by themselves?
Yikes
No no, just the one yike. Put the rest back

Try '80s. Get off my lawn.
I’m German, Sheesh (Schüsch) arrived here in the 2000s, so I’m sorry for encroaching on your lawn.

I don’t know if it even really counts as slang, but this happened to me and some buddies I played Rocket League with. Some guy kept spamming “Siiiick” in the quick chat for the littlest things, so we’d spam it back 3x as hard. Long story short, we still use it now like 7 or 8 years later.
I’ll say “What a save!” when my group screws up or loses because you can take me out of rocket league but you can’t take rocket league out of me.
I switched from what a save to this is rocket league because people have weak mentals and will give up and or throw the game if you what a save them lol
I read that in a hockey commentator voice

I am bringing “Ahoy” back
Step 1: Move to Czechia.
What does it mean in Czech?
Krok 1: Přestěhuj se do Česka.
it’s one of the words for hello
ope
there goes gravity
Hello, fellow Midwesterner.
No, yeah
Ope, no, yeah you got me. Yeah, no, though I really use that too much
Yeet has grown on me. Side note, is “af” dated? I really liked that one.
Don’t worry about your slag being dated, embrace it! Who cares that yeet is cringe af fam?
“Yeet” is still in my slang. As is “af”. I also use “Dope” and “Sick” a lot to mean cool. I also use “hella”
Hella and rizz are the only two slang words I’ve never liked in my 28 years.
I hate “Rizz” so much
I assume you’re closer to 30 than 20 lol
I’ll be 27 in a few days lol
Your slang, my slang, we all slang for
spoiler
slangslang
The real joy of growing up is using slang without giving half a damn whether it’s dated. Let them cringe, if they must.
For me that’s just a contraction, so if you’d use the entire thing then you can use the contractions.
Bet
No one uses much 1930s and 1940s Hep Cat slang anymore and that’s a real shame because Cab Calloway went out of his way to promote it.

Sure, people still use “salty” to mean angry about something, but when was the last time you heard someone “creeping out like the shadow?”
I love this link.
Considering it’s coming up pretty close to being a century old, I’m actually surprised how much of this has made it into the common lexicon.
I feel like even the etymology on capped could be interesting and maybe share a common source with modern cap.
I refuse to succumb to “yeet.” Is it still around much?
It’s just a synonym for throwing something now
No, it isn’t.
Yeet has been yote
Yeed.
I once heard it described as a verb tense of “yoink” and that made me feel a lot better about it slipping into my regular usage.
I’m still cheugy af tho, according to my 26 year old roommate, so maybe don’t take advice from me.
Take it easy, homeslice xx
As far as I know it’s the opposite of yoink.
Yoink = taking something quite aggressively. Yeet = throwing about something.
Yeet the hell out of it. Total mood
