Rizz isn't even all that bad. Yeet is far stupider, though fun. Cap/ no cap is pretty worthless, but oh well. None of it is any worse than the slang from any other generation.

Nothing will ever beat "Bitchin'"

[-] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 13 points 9 months ago

Yeah, bitchin was pretty rad

[-] RooPappy@kbin.social 6 points 9 months ago

Ah yes, ain't that fresh. Everybody wants to be down like that.

[-] Chozo@kbin.social 9 points 9 months ago

"Bitchin'" is such an 80s phrase that has mostly died out, and I hate that it's not more widely-used. I sometimes drop a bitchin' into a sentence and people take it as me being upset, when it's literally the exact opposite.

[-] DebatableRaccoon@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 months ago

Correct and is why I make sure to use it ad much as I can for particular cool stuff

[-] bestnerd@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

wikitah just sounds like something made by Wikimedia

As long as we move farther away from YOLO, the better off we'll all be.

Rizz isn't even all that bad.

Agreed. Knowing that it's short for charisma makes it easy to remember

[-] tdawg@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago

Worthless? I hear people use cap/no cap more than the rest

[-] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 6 points 9 months ago

Just because they use it doesn't mean it ain't stupid. Rizz is at least short for charisma. That makes sense. Cap/ no cap doesn't make sense though. It's a net negative for language as a whole.

[-] Chozo@kbin.social 16 points 9 months ago

I'm gonna rizz up that glizzy. No cap, fam.

[-] DanglingFury@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

Please provide translation as well

I am going to roll charisma on this hot dog. (I am telling the truth, friend.)

[-] vrek@programming.dev 4 points 9 months ago

I don't think a hot dog requires a charisma roll... You just eat it....

so this is invalid to you:

[-] haulyard@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

I just read this out loud to my teenage kids. I think I’ve traumatized them.

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

My 8-year-old is saying "ez", as in a word and not the letters.

[-] Fades@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

pronounced "ease"? I've been saying that for many years now, gaming lingo or something

i think there's also some twitch shit related to it, back from my dota days: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=EZ%20Clap

here's an example, I've heard it pronounced 'e-z' and 'ease': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CjcITYUUos

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Not quite like "ease"; more like saying "eh" with a z on the end.

[-] seliaste@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Thats how we pronounce ez in french gaming comunities, idk if it is also the case in english

I actually JUST had a conversation here where someone explained what “yote” means.

[-] brunofin@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

So, tell us, we need to know, or risk becoming old.

[-] o2inhaler@lemmy.ca 6 points 9 months ago

Conjugation of yeet, past tense.

[-] Pratai@lemmy.ca 5 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Past-tense of “yeet.”

And apparently, yeet means to throw?

So… yote means threw.

saying yeet is the same as saying throw, when you throw a mattress to the railway station from a american suburb

[-] poweruser 1 points 9 months ago

Yeet is the antonym of yoink

[-] Napain@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago

rizz was like a year ago
