Damn kids and their embarrassing slang, someone really oughta pwn these newbs.
Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read.

You think general zoomer slang is bad, wait until you get into sports zoomer slangs. I've recently learned that "burger" means points in sports specifically for basketball and football.

Just wait until you find out that it's actually millennial slang. Blow your head right off.

tf is this racist boomer bullshit

I worked with a shitload of white Zoomers who would talk in "Zoomer slang" amongst each other yet when someone of color was close by, whether it was an employee of customer, they would completely drop it. There were even a few instances of a few of them accidentally letting a certain word slip out. The worst example of that was with someone who was ironically the most socially progressive people I've ever worked with.

This just showed me that it's not just a matter of slang evolving, but a lot of these people know exactly where their slang comes from and the fact that they're comfortable talking like that amongst themselves but not others really makes you think.
Thanks for reading!

not really
bro became bra became breh became bruh

The only Zoomer slang that is cringe is Rizz. Sounds like something some frat guy came up with after ordering his Zza. Rizzler.

Gyatt is weird, but more just a mispronunciation/ shortening like denamug

Never once used pwnd. That was text/1337/game speak. That slang actually had the rule that you were never supposed to use it offline as that was cringe.

In your other post you specifically mentioned bruh, blud and dude. Are you trying to equate using these words as wanting to say the n word but not being able to??

Like come on now, saying the word dude or bruh does not mean youre racist what the hell

Oldfaqs up in here. As a millennial, I know my generation had a bunch of cringe in our lexicons at various points in time.

I did get thrown off when my coworker said ate and didnt mean physical food.

i agree

but shit like "off the heezy" and "shizzle" also made me cringe back when i was younger.
But what about when it's used in a pun?

Not a lot of black people in Scotland I'm guessing

There are some, a few in my hometown work in Security and I have seen a lot during my walks through the Town Centre.

Only one I hate is "cringe". That word is so annoying and overused. But the rest I think is amusing. I rarely ever say stuff like no cap or drip, but it doesn't bother me.

never having been able to use pwn is a selfpwn tbh

Cap is kinda fading and drip was/is being replaced by "fit", though I don't know if it succeeded yet.
GeminiDeus posted...
I still don't know what "no cap" means, apparently. I thought it meant "no caps lock" or to be without a hat.
It means like shorthand for, "no joke" or "for real, no shit?".

Dang, in our time it was Pho King lol
DI MOLTO!
This take is so close minded to me. The majority of the new slang is funny to me since it's without context/sounds so foreign, and I enjoy the linguistic evolution of each generation. Some of them are fun to say too, you should try using no cap unironically. It's a hoot!
How quaint.
