I mention these because nobody wants to admit they said/heard them, but they did and it happened.

  • no homo
  • sup faggit

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

Not that there's anything wrong with that!

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 11 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

"No homo" is from the 2010s, not the 90s.

[–] otp@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Hah, I guess it lasted a long time. Pretty sure people in my school were saying it at least a decade prior

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Well... Wikipedia says it came from hip-hop music in the 90s. But since I am white as rice and lived in the sticks, it took a couple decades to be widespread enough to ever hear it I guess. 🤷‍♂️
