This seems like a joke from some Michigan school teacher ... similar to how a lot of Ohio State football fans say *ichigan and things

[-] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 30 points 2 months ago

No, "Ohio" has entered slang as meaning "boring hell", basically. All over.

[-] Avg@lemm.ee 15 points 2 months ago

That's not slang, that's just true.

Seems like one of those annoying strict teachers to me lol

I think you underestimate the increase in the difficulty of teachers jobs in the last 5 years. They’ve lost a lot of their ability to even teach due to internet parenting and brain rot.

Apparently these rules exist in my house also. Just today, my Gen Z kid forbade me from ever saying rizz or Ohio again. Luckily, I don't live near Ohio, so I don't need these words for any functional purpose. In particular, she told me that Ohio has been over for, like, a year and I'm out of date on slang.

[-] roguetrick@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago

What I always love about it is that it's only outv of date in her age group social circles and it was out of date when she was using it too.

All joking aside, assuming this is a public school,

Schools are not Constitution Free zones.

They are government institutions and they just can't limit free speech like this, for terms that are not disruptive or vulgar but that the administration simply don't like for personal reasons.

Banning slang is just gonna lead to the invention of new and more annoying slang. This is exactly how we got in this situation.

My mom works in a school with 1st through 5th graders. She messages me like twice a week for me to explain slang to her so she can know if she needs to explain to a child that it's wrong to say. I've learned so much new slang.

I need someone to use all of these in context. I can't even begin to guess.

[-] constnt@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

Skibidi - from a YouTube series made in source engine. Means "bad"

Sigma - alpha as in alpha male. Beta as in beta male. Sigma is a 3rd which means you follow neither alpha or beta but go your own way.

Rizz- short for "charisma"

Mewing - an act of contracting tongue /neck muscles to make your under chin area contract changing the shape of your jawline.

Gyatt - "god damn" - a big old butt.

Bet - "wanna bet?" Aka "yes"

Bussin - "busting" really good

Ohio - bad or mid "from Ohio"

Let him cook - let him do his thing. He's got this.

Baddie - hottie. Sexy.

It's the _ for me - pointing out the specific thing you enjoyed.

[-] FinishingDutch@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Well, guess I’m officially old since I only knew about three of those…
