I feel dead at 24
Is now a bad time to point out that all words are made up? If your generation got to do it, there’s no reason to begrudge any other.
You would have been a child when yeet started becoming popular though
Isn’t he cheering in that scene?
OP glazing
The earliest urban dictionary entry for yeet was made in 2008, when you are literally part of the generation that popularized the word.
And it was a dance move performed on bikes. Literally pumping the chest up and down with arms spread wide (like flying an airplane), while riding a bicycle, in a group.
I remember using it around the early 2000s to be throwing something.
I remember early 2010s, people were making funny videos yelling “YEET” & throwing things super far.
I’m old and new words are neat
Scientists: (hold beer) …
Yeet
You’re zenging, mosh
I like to use 1920s slang to even things out.
Well, got to skedaddle.I’m 40+ and I keep inventing words with friends, why blame the young ones ?
(I mean except for the fact that they listen to shitty music and ours was better 👴)
You probably just forgot about all the bad music you used to listen to and now compares all the new stuff to the best from your time.
That was supposed to be an old grumpy man joke
That Lo fi shit kids listen to is such trash. I know im an old man now but damn, even the 2010s had more bearable music
…what’s wtong with lofi? It’s background noise that helps tons of people focus.
I don’t know what happened circa 2005 where radio stations banded together to only play the worst music but there is still good music around. It just doesn’t see play in avenues you’re exposed to
(This extends to streaming)
Radio stations have always played bad music.
“Yeet” is 10 years old now.
Jesus Christ… I’m old enough to have kids that would have said yet… where’s my ibuprofen?
Up to 24 people are sympathetic. You will find a lot of people that will (correctly) say “you’re young. Just enjoy your time you don’t need to worry about where you’re headed. It will come to you”. Wait until next year. 25 is when that changes to “what the fuck are you doing with your life”. Basically what I’m saying is you’re not old. Until next year.
fr fr no cap
Then there’s 26, when in the US you get kicked off your parents’ insurance & you can go fuck yourself! 🤗
I’m old enough to literally not care one bit what the youngins do or if I really understand them. I don’t need them to be my clone to live them. They got their thing just like I had mine. Circle of life.
You can make up words at any age.
Marvy fab
If you also make up a way to pronounce them, a grammar and potentially a culture to go with it, you’ve just made a conlang
This helped me but it is only valid for 15 minutes
13 of those terms are not new at all lol glad to see there’s at least some overlap between generations.
Now if we can just psyop them into using “rad” and “sick” again 👀
