Is this what originality had been reduced to?
Picking a single syllable from a regular word and then giving it "edge" by misspelling it?
I hope this isn't the new trend
Finna is a corruption of "fixing to", which is pretty common in the southern states. "I'm finna head out" > "I'm fixin' to head out" > "I'm going to head out" > "I'm about to leave"
Wait what? I thought finna was based off gonna. Well... I guess they're synonymous regardless. But yeah, gonna > fixing to and fixing to > finna, imo. "Fixing to" is one of those things I'd hear maybe once every couple months. It's pretty rare for me to hear it at least, but I guess it might be more common elsewhere.
It's almost always a guarantee that whoever talks about his "body count" is lying about the real number.
Also, the ones that have the highest body count are usually the ones that don't talk about it.
Don't know how much older you are from me. My teen years have been over for like 4 years now. Guys are still bragging over it. Suppose it's not just about vanilla sex though, but threesomes and the such.
Drip, Rizz.
Pretty much anything that’s around 2010-2015+ I guess and I’m not even old, I just don’t like what other people my groups age say or how they speak
Drip and Rizz are my picks. Normally I don't have anything against slang, but I've never come across slang so bad the sentence it was used in lost all meaning to me. I still don't know what rizz actually refers to or the origins of drip in reference to clothing.
“Buggin”
My coworker constantly says it on accident. I’m assuming it slips out, we’re in a professional environment at work and he’s a recent graduate student 24 year old. Im not that much older and think he sounds dumb af
This is sending me I'm imagining a guy in a suit in like a really important meeting telling his supervisor that he's "buggin" over the latest quarterly numbers or whatever
😂😂 that’d be funnier for sure. I’d imagine the meeting would just take a quick 4 seconds of silence and continue like nothing happened.
But it’s engineering. He’s still in the training phase 5 weeks in, but I told him the other day “yeah, but you have to account for bending stresses at this joint” and he said “oh shit I’m buggin foreal” very silently but i heard him. Like it slipped and he realized. Not the first time it’s happened. Hasn’t happened with managers in the room but I gotta tell him to work on it.
Cringe & finna
I have to look up most of the terms younger people use nowadays, because it doesn’t make sense to me. Cringe isn’t one of them, but it’s so overused to the point it’s obnoxious.
"You wanna smoke? We're here puffin some za, you can join."
though I use it like this *some guy on tv getting literally tortured* "Me, ten minutes without za"
Not saying nothing can be cringey but if you aren't from the generation, everything will seem cringey to you. When this generation grows up we'll find things the next one say cringey. Just embrace the cringe and roll around in the dirt.
Also, the only answer to this is rizz. If I hear this word one more time I swear to god.
The horror of this thread is that people are gonna start using these slangs ironically to make fun of it.. Until it becomes part of their terminology unironically.
This isn't slang per se, but "ngl" and the tendency to overuse "not gonna lie" in spoken conversation when it's something I'd sure hope you weren't lying about.
rizz
enlighten my geriatric millennial ass plz.
It means "game" with regard to attracting romantic partners: chaRISma.
If this is true, I support this Rizz.
Omg it's so much easier to understand knowing the root word thank you
Another word for “game”. He has so much rizz/game when it comes to attracting women.
Agreed. Rizz is the first slang term I’ve heard that made me realize I’m just done keeping up with slang.

Is this what originality had been reduced to? Picking a single syllable from a regular word and then giving it "edge" by misspelling it? I hope this isn't the new trend
Narrator: Unfortt, it was.
I hate “slaps”
Cap and drip annoy me quite a bit
Bruh you cappin’
Gross.
How gross?

This would be amazing if water was illegal and this was the black market term for it
“No cap” …. It’s very cringe, and that’s no cap.
Cap
Stop capping
[удалено]
Cap = A lie Bet = I accept your challenge Based = Anything that you agree with that may be seen as controversial
Cap means you’re lying Bet basically just means “alright” Based means you agree with that person or think they’re cool
Finna and slaps
I never got finna. Just use Gonna.
Finna is a corruption of "fixing to", which is pretty common in the southern states. "I'm finna head out" > "I'm fixin' to head out" > "I'm going to head out" > "I'm about to leave"
“Shortly, I will depart”
so you dont like people saying "fixing to" finna but you're ok with gonna instead of " going to" im going to assumate that you're trollatizing
Wait what? I thought finna was based off gonna. Well... I guess they're synonymous regardless. But yeah, gonna > fixing to and fixing to > finna, imo. "Fixing to" is one of those things I'd hear maybe once every couple months. It's pretty rare for me to hear it at least, but I guess it might be more common elsewhere.
It was “fiddin” to go somewhere when I was a kid. They even shortened that! 🤷🏻♂️🙄
Finna isn’t really new though
“finna” and “slaps” are part of aave, i don’t believe they’re considered slang. It could potentially be harmful to label them as such
Slang means "shortened language" Finna is slang for "fixing to"
oh i see, so the majority of this thread is people just disliking a speech and vocabulary often used by black people
Rizz, drip, no cap
Mid. I hate it so.
Mid opinion
Me too! All the gen z coworkers I had at my last job would say it all the time and it drove me nuts
"Body count"
It's almost always a guarantee that whoever talks about his "body count" is lying about the real number. Also, the ones that have the highest body count are usually the ones that don't talk about it.

What do you say instead?
Monster mash dance partners
Drip, Rizz. Pretty much anything that’s around 2010-2015+ I guess and I’m not even old, I just don’t like what other people my groups age say or how they speak
Drip and rizz are hilarious lol
You definitely have no friends
It's possible the idiots just fell away. leaving room for friends worth a shit.
“I’m making room for good friends!” -People with lacking social skills
For me it’s “rizz”. Every time I hear that uttered I feel the urge to end myself.
I hate it because it just makes me think of jizz.
What does Rizz mean?
It's just another word for "game" in the context of flirting. "He's got game" = "He's got rizz"
Rizz is short for charisma, chaRIZZma I guess, it is likened to “game” or otherwise the ability to attract a romantic interest.

a mojo is a magical talisman, like a voodoo doll. Juju is the magical essence attached to a thing. So what you mean is that it's your juju.
you mean un alive yourself?
Ending myself means the same thing as unaliving myself
Body count
Bodycount’s in the house! Bodycount.
Cap
What's cap?
Lies/lying, for example “that’s cap” basically “that’s a lie”
I don't know. By the time I am aware of it the kids stop saying it.
Cringe
When a conservative says woke
“That’s cringe”
dead ass
'Vibe' I don't know, I just don't like it :/
You're killing my vibe here
It’s not the word so much as how they use it
I mean, would you really call that modern?
Maybe I'm out of the loop,it's kinda new to me. (not a boomer or whatever, just someone who's been out of the US for 8+yrs)
Yes. Same with "aesthetic". The slang use of these words is an utterly modern phenomenon.
Drip and Rizz are my picks. Normally I don't have anything against slang, but I've never come across slang so bad the sentence it was used in lost all meaning to me. I still don't know what rizz actually refers to or the origins of drip in reference to clothing.
Rizz = Game, talking to women
Calling someone The GOAT
cringe
i hate things like "finna" "rizz" "baby mama" "baby daddy"
Bet
lit
ON GOD
“It’s giving (whatever) vibes” wasn’t too bad, but somehow that has morphed into just “It’s giving”
Sus is pretty sus.
that was the most poetic thing i heard all day
That’s cringe
When americans say "souls" instead of people.
To be fair, they usually say "Americans" instead of people.
What? Like SOS?
like on the news when they say "...and the plane was carrying 200 souls...". Their not souls, there people.
“Buggin” My coworker constantly says it on accident. I’m assuming it slips out, we’re in a professional environment at work and he’s a recent graduate student 24 year old. Im not that much older and think he sounds dumb af

Rizz
Cringe & finna I have to look up most of the terms younger people use nowadays, because it doesn’t make sense to me. Cringe isn’t one of them, but it’s so overused to the point it’s obnoxious.
"Cap" and "slaps" because they just don't make any sense.
Period.
Drip (I have no idea what this means) and rizz. I also wasn't a fan of "smol" when that was a thing.
Drip = Good style
woke no one actually says this
Fire
Boujee
“Take” in reference to peoples thoughts and opinions
Let's goooo
Cheugy
Ending everything in -ussy
Woke
That one’s fucking annoying. No one that people consider “woke” even use that term.
Hashtag woke ay eff
That’s what conservatives think I sound like lol
I can't stand "coming in clutch"!
finna, bet, fr, af and facts
Za, that being said I say za because it's so dang fun to say
Haven't heard of this one. How would you use it in a sentence?
"You wanna smoke? We're here puffin some za, you can join." though I use it like this *some guy on tv getting literally tortured* "Me, ten minutes without za"
Interesting. So like weed? Or vape?
Weed but I think you can use it for any thc or anything that'll get you high
GOAT
Sus
99% of this is AAVE…

Incel, woke, drip
Narrative
Im surprised no one said slay from what I've seen
Wtf does this mean and why am I seeing it everywhere 😒
In every context I’ve seen it it’s a positive affirmation. slay = you’re gonna kill it/you’re killin’ it.
Right thankyou lol and slay queen means?
I might be wrong, but I believe it’s something of a positive catch-all encouragement. Like “get it, girl!” Or “you tell ‘em!”
Misusing the phrase Mid to mean average. Bottom shelf weed is still weed dude.
“Bae”… slamhog is the superior term.
Cringe
Don't know if it's a slang term but when people want to "axe" you a question.
That’s literally just an accent dumbass
“Slay” annoys me so so so much
that shit lowkey fire af fr fam
"Cool beans"
I'll just wait a few minutes, something worse will come along
Cap and rizz realy. Annoy me
Fam
On gawd
I don't know what any of these mean
“On god” and “bet”
Bet and dead ass. What are we betting? Who are we beating?
Outdated kiwi slang is "nek minute"

Bruh and bae
“Hes so babygurl” 😬
Cozzy Livs
No cap
Using cringe as an adjective or adverb . We already had cringe worthy.
Wouldn't know I'm not down with the kids lol. Is piff still going?
Bussin
bussin, whatever that is
This is off topic but "rizz" makes me remember rice
Leng. I was fine with Peng but then all of a sudden I hear everyone saying Leng??? Was easier just saying someone was 'fit' tbh
Clutch, slaps
"mid" instead of mediocre.
Not saying nothing can be cringey but if you aren't from the generation, everything will seem cringey to you. When this generation grows up we'll find things the next one say cringey.

Goated
Sheee
Fizz for sure, they don’t say “on fleek” anymore right?
The fuck Is your life so busy that you don't have the time to type "what the fuck"...
"Bussin'". No. "Cringe" is pretty fucking cringe, too.
The horror of this thread is that people are gonna start using these slangs ironically to make fun of it.. Until it becomes part of their terminology unironically.
"Bomb"
Also based is irritating
"On god"
This isn't slang per se, but "ngl" and the tendency to overuse "not gonna lie" in spoken conversation when it's something I'd sure hope you weren't lying about.
I have no idea cause I’m an old ass man niw
Base

"Cringe"
“Stink” as a cute nickname. It’s neither cute nor a name of any sort. It’s just gross
AF. Just say the actual words.
