So will be “squeezin the juice”, just think about that one
What’s cooking?
I’m old so no idea but I would guess like “let him cook”
Nah, these expressions will just fall out of use. You think this is the first time people came up with funny fad expressions?
Sorry, but you ain’t all dat and a bag of potato chips. Fo shizzle.
They already are.
Source: I’m old and I can use all those words correctly.
Yea but when old people now use it, it’s an oddity. I think OP means when old men in general are talking about Razz and Skibity outhouse.
They are already getting there. Hearing forty year olds say it means kids are now stopping saying it.
Wazzuppppp, fellow youths!
I hear more millennial YouTubers using this language than I do highschoolers.
I would imagine because you spend way more time watching millennial YouTubers than you do hanging out with high school ers
By that time language may be unrecognizable by those of you still around
I heard this thing that humans are tribal creatures and in any group, family, friend etc, they will invariably develop their own language, and they didn’t mention it but generationally specify slang is so much more beautiful when viewed through that lens. So even if it’s an old person thing, for those of us privileged to be able to stay on this earth that long, it will still be your tribes language and you will feel at home saying it. And that’s all that matters.
No cap
My 34 year-old brother says “rats!” when something bad happens. He learned from our grandpa.
Oooh, I like that, I’m terrified of rats, so that would be a great replacement, for the usual word, when around kids, too.
One of these days I need to go and read through the Calvin and Hobbes collection I bought for my bookshelf when it was on a steep discount. I remember reading them all the time as a kid.
A relatable situation; when my kid can read a little better I mean to very enthusiastically introduce them to it.
Though honestly they might enjoy the beautiful artwork without bothering to read. Or it might encourage them to practice. Hmm.
Either way is good IMO. Even if they just look at the pictures and imagine their own stories I have to believe that’s good for a developing mind.
And the nursing homes will be full of Arya, Daenarys, and Khaleesi. Boys movie names tend to be pretty underwhelming. Maybe a bunch of “Wades” from Deadpool.
I’m surprised I’ve never seen a kid named Atreyu.
They exist. Don’t think I’ve ever met one either.

You don’t say!
they already are in black communities, teens see tiktok comments and go wow new slang, a lot of this shit isnt new tho, like bop wasnt new but everyone acted like it was a new tiktok word, neither was thot on twitter or many others, rizz isnt new, its been around, cooking and based? not new at all
What is “bop”? Are bop-its popular on TikTok?
A song that is good, or goes hard.
That makes sense, I guess. Thank you.
Absolutely! I’m old, but somehow I am still semi-“hip”
I’m old, but I was homeschooled so not once was I hip.
In fact I’m pretty sure my actual physical hip is failing.
Nothing is new under the sun.
I heard that once in a bible class and it’s stuck with me ever since. And imo it beautifully encapsulates humanity’s trends and fads.
Language is an ever-evolving thing, but at the same time, how many variations of something can be made before we’ve made all of them? Humanity has been around for thousands of years; I find it hard to believe that just about any word we could come up with is actually brand new and no other human has heard it before.
How is rizz not new? I’ve never seen it until tiktok.
Where do you think tiktok slang comes from? It’s just popular slang someone uses in a comment that middleschool kids who are from different areas, that have never heard it before parrot, because they literally just copy popular comments bar for bar hoping to get likes
I’ve heard it plenty, california
What year did you first start hearing the word rizz?
rizz comes from African Americans Vernacular English and has been around for decades…. white kids on tiktok recently learned it…
I’ve been around for decades too, even living in California, and the first time I’ve heard the word is recently with the new generation of tiktok people.
well slang is very regional, as well as specific to different subcultures… like gamers have tons of slang/jargon…
seems like kids like to appropriate slang from elsewhere (often black slang, probably from music), then they assume they invented it and gatekeep it, then it progresses to boring or becomes part of the language like “cool”….
but whatever, i’m down with it… it’s totally tubular!
