A third of those predate gen z. The complete nonsense words are definitely on them, though.

[–] Atomdude@lemmy.world 25 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I think every word ever started out as something that was nonsense to everyone, except the first two people who used that word.

No cap fr fr

But isn't OPP other people's.... property or has that changed since Naughty by Nature taught us all what it meant?

[–] Vespair@lemm.ee 46 points 7 months ago (15 children)

No, it just shouldn't be capitalized. It's short for "operative" and usually refers to somebody you think is (or jokingly think is) working for/with the cops or feds.

It's "Opp," not OPP

Sorry, 42 years old, force of habit.

As a younger millenial I gotta say some of these are ours. We were calling things "extra" since like '06. Vibe is as old as the hippies, and mid is weed slang from like the early 2000s.

[–] oatscoop@midwest.social 28 points 7 months ago (3 children)

Every generation uses old slang they mistakenly believe they invented.

"I feel old"

Picture of something printed on paper

[–] snooggums@midwest.social 52 points 7 months ago (5 children)

Ick is just short for icky and vibe has been around for decades.

Gnarly list.

[–] Icaria@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago (4 children)

The whole trend is nothing new. Millennials and some GenXers were stealing all their slang from American rappers when they were young, too.

I seem to recall when they were translating "grunge" slang and it was also mostly bullshit not actually used.

Gyatt was originally just a different pronunciation of god: GOD DAMN! = GYATT DAYUM!

Not rather Gen Alpha already? I too am kinda getting lost here, as a Gen Z.

[–] anarchrist@lemmy.dbzer0.com 39 points 7 months ago (5 children)

I swear to god half of the slang from memes like this is just aspirational. Pretty fetch imo.

[–] neatchee@lemmy.world 25 points 7 months ago (1 children)
[–] KevonLooney@lemm.ee 11 points 7 months ago

Stop trying to make fetch happen

I'm a very late millennial, borderline Gen Z, and even I feel like all my slang knowledge is outdated.

[–] moon@lemmy.cafe 24 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (2 children)

Gen Z has even ruined our programming!

Opp? How can I explain it? Take it frame by frame it, to have y'all all jumping, shouting, saying it? O is for other, P is for people, scratch your temple, because the last P? Well that's not so simple..

The fuck is "cheugy"? How the hell do you pronounce that?

[–] HatFullOfSky@lemmy.world 11 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I've heard my BIL pronounce it "chew-gee"

[–] Manalith@midwest.social 13 points 7 months ago (3 children)

Still on the fence here is the g pronounced like in GIF?

I think 'mid' means middle or mid-grade weed, which means a similar thing as 'mediocre' like the chart says.
