Right? Much better to get your skibidi rizz on than have your cortisol spiked by 67 mogged millennials.
I'd argue its a different kind of "bad" humor, with the aging millennial style being cringey and painful to hear vs just plain stupid
I make jokes about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIFF_(Usenet) and /. and no one already understands me.
Ey, I know B1FF! Idk what you mean by /. tho.

Wow. Such True. Many Funny.
Cool beans, roflcopter.
We did successfully revive “23 skidoo!” and “bee’s knees” during the third wave ska and swing band craze, so it’ll be interesting to see what eventually works it’s way into youth’s slang lexicon.
ERMAGERD
ZOMG
This is what I love about any movie/tv show/book/novel/short story about the future .... it's all spoken in the same language that we all understand now.
But if we could listen to regular everyday English spoken in North America 100 years ago, it would sound a bit off and unusual. Listen to English as it was spoken in England 300 years ago and it would probably sound very strange and unsual, go back to 500 years ago and we would probably have a hard time understanding.
The same thing is going to happen in the future (IF there is any kind of future and we don't blow ourselves up or kill ourselves off in some unusual, creative and complicated way) ... historians will listen to recordings of how we talk today and think of us in the same way we think about someone from 1800. Go even far into the future about 500 years and someone from 2526 will probably not be able to understand anything we're saying unless they use a translator of some kind. Those people 500 years from now will probably look back us like we're making grunting sounds like some cave people from prehistory.
How far back in time can you understand English. A fairly long but facinating read.
5/7 perfect score.
5/7 with rice!
Whatever. I'm am the Great Cornholio!
Wassuuuup!
Talk to the hand. You aren't all of that and a bag of potato chips.
Oh snap!
Are you threatening me?
And after millennials pass, old folk's homes will be filled with people shouting "SIX SEVEN" over and over
Apropos of nothing, the term "doggy" or "doggo" is possibly going back to the roots of the word; the Middle English word "dogge" kind of came out of nowhere and it's hypothesized that it might have been a diminutive slang word (like "doggy" or "bunny") that ended up becoming the standard term for the animal, supplanting "hound".
Does this mean that people will return to speaking normal English in the future?
This is just translated to today's standard English. Future English obviously will become a tonal language, where all expression is based on different intonations of the word "skibidi".
Of course!
Here's the start of a really good series, all in normal English:
Whan that Aprille with his shoures soote, The droghte of March hath perced to the roote, And bathed every veyne in swich licóur Of which vertú engendred is the flour; Whan Zephirus eek with his swete breeth Inspired hath in every holt and heeth The tendre croppes, and the yonge sonne Hath in the Ram his halfe cours y-ronne, And smale foweles maken melodye, That slepen al the nyght with open ye, So priketh hem Natúre in hir corages, Thanne longen folk to goon on pilgrimages, And palmeres for to seken straunge strondes, To ferne halwes, kowthe in sondry londes; And specially, from every shires ende Of Engelond, to Caunterbury they wende, The hooly blisful martir for to see, That hem hath holpen whan that they were seeke
Ugh, this gives me PTSD from junior year high school English class, we had to memorize & recite that Chaucer's Canterbury tales 🤮
And in junior high they probably didn't clue you into the bawdier bits of the individual tales.
All I understood was "longing folk to goon on pilgrimages". That thing never changed!
