Until you go outside. Luckily, I have a teenaged kid who can tell me what shit means while giggling at my greying beard.

Until you go outside.

Oh they're always coming out.

They just don't always catch on.

Just keep refreshing Urban Dictionary until you see one start getting traction.

Keep in mind that the adults when we were kids and young adults felt the same way.

Languages evolve.

As a millennial, I think zoomer slang is much funnier than ours was. We said things like "epic win" or dumb shit about Chuck Norris but these zoomers are out there in the trenches sticking out their gyatts for the rizzler.

[–] Astronauticaldb@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago (2 children)

So, I just want to say that the oldest Zoomers are in their 20s now, and the ones actually sticking out their gyatts for the rizzler are Gen Alpha.

I also reckon that our forefathers had an easier time comprehending our epic wins, Chuck Norris references and so on.

I've somehow managed to comprehend gyatt and rizz (okay the latter is older than most people alive today I guess?), but skibidi toilet is where I draw the line.

Just gonna leave Brainrot Girlfriend here for you to read.

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I read that as brainrot Garfield and got disappointed

[–] capt_wolf@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Man... It took me 13 requests. Some were close, I got a realistic looking orange cat drooling. A lot of Garfield eating pizza. Finally bing gave me this...

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Aw fuck yeah. That's the brainrot I needed today. Thank you for that lol

[–] capt_wolf@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Here's the rest of the set then, enjoy!

And a bonus drooling cat that looks like it fell asleep drinking coffee

depends on the context, but σ is most often used to denote a member of a permutation group

I was in Spirit Halloween yesterday and they had a Hawk Tuah costume (it was like a handyman jumpsuit that said something like "Hawk Tuah Lubricants")

Mainstream audiences caught up with the idea of brainrot slang, killing the very point of it

[–] yesman@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

This is the natural life-cycle of slang.

[–] kubica@fedia.io 16 points 1 year ago

Kinda makes me wonder if I've been a bit too successful at isolating myself from trends.

Suss has been a short form for suspicious in British and Australian English since as early as the 1920s.

Using Middle English characters is the new brainrot.
