I seem to recall when they were translating “grunge” slang and it was also mostly bullshit not actually used.
And now, dear Gen X, imagine that in German. Ooof.
Lol for some reason “delulu” hits just as bad as calling someone retarded. The only difference is one isn’t a medical term. It’s a well chosen word.
I shall share a stolen… I meant a borrowed meme
new Cope
is nutsSheesh yaas
Does ‘else if’ become ‘cap nocap’?
I got this as a fax, and it said I had to mail it to at least seven other people to be blessed.
Mine arrived in a mail box
Ick is just short for icky and vibe has been around for decades.
Gnarly list.
I think they’re saying “the ick” or something but that’s also pretty understandable by everyone.
The whole trend is nothing new. Millennials and some GenXers were stealing all their slang from American rappers when they were young, too.
Uh Gen X predates rap.
True, but people using cool sayings from black culture has been a thing for a long time
Rap got popular in the 80’s, like NWA and Run DMC, right as GenXers were entering their formative years. Really not hard to figure out before posting pointless replies.
Opp? How can I explain it? Take it frame by frame it, to have y’all all jumping, shouting, saying it? O is for other, P is for people, scratch your temple, because the last P? Well that’s not so simple…
Opp as in opp(osition)
looks like a intern project at a graphic design shop. get that Gen Z kid to write us up a slang Rosetta stone!
Gen Z/Alpha is fine… except for this shit. Talk like a fucking human, for fuck’s sake.
I bet they’re always on your lawn too
I don’t have a lawn. Both, because I’m thankfully not American, but also because millenials don’t get to buy houses.
On god you cheugy fr fr
bro be spitting fax, on God

something something damn kids these days and the way they wear their hair, something something and the fashion they engage in.
Nothing is new under the sun gramps.
Slang was words repurposed in meaning. Had been for thousands of years. The fuck is a “delulu”? The fuck is a “gyatt”? This is a symptom of terminal online-ness, like kids addressing groups as “chat”.
Uh ohhh someone is experiencing getting older. It only gets worse!
where skibidi?
Whats the oldies equivalent?
GMod.
It’s not a real slang term as far as I’m aware, it’s just a mock slang term that showed up because skibidi toilet happened to also be a meme around the time zoomer slang became a meme.
Thought that was Alpha gen.
It depends, it’s generally used by gen z to mock gen alpha, though some of the youngest genz do use it regularly
OPP sure swerved
As a younger millenial I gotta say some of these are ours. We were calling things “extra” since like '06. Vibe is as old as the hippies, and mid is weed slang from like the early 2000s.
Wait, those are real?
Unfortunately
I apparently live under a rock.
Every generation uses old slang they mistakenly believe they invented.
Or in the case of ‘out of pocket’ every generaation just ignorantly bastardizes random shit.
Fax, no printer.
No baseball hat.
Yeah, our generation was streets ahead of those zoomers.
Ok Pierce.
You down with OPP?
Yeah You know me
I want a Gen Z Immortan Joe in my life, on God
