“bae” is either Dutch or Danish for the solid waste one deposits in the toilet. How it came to be a term of endearment is a complete mystery. Also, I heard it the first time over 5 years ago, and it wasn’t from a “POC”, either.
“can be interpreted as both a testament to America’s growing acceptance of AAL and also to its ongoing cultural appropriation of it.”
That makes no sense. It is by definition American. No need to “accept” and not possible to “appropriate.”
BTTT
I never heard ‘Stan’, but I always tried to keep my distance from any Emimen stuff.
I’m surprised the article didn’t include the term
‘Clap Back’, which means to respond to a critism with equal vigor as the insult. But maybe that’s already too 2016.
I knew 25 out of 40, thanks to my older grandchildren, ages 18 and 11.
No thot in the list? Hmm.
Texting vocab. Need for vowels dissapating.
Nifty neato keen!
I have one for them (YGX-RTD).

I always remember goober,on the Andy Griffith Show saying saying “yo”
Plus he wore baggy pants and his hat was not straight.
Some of those have been around for a while. “POS” and “vibe” been around for a long time. “Bae” and “ghost” go make at least to the millennials. “Simp” has been used for a very long time, though the meaning has shifted a little. I thought I knew “cap” and remembered when people started using it, but that was with the very different meaning of “shoot,” not “exaggerate.”
I’ve seen GOAT used on this board. I thought it referred to someone blamed for the misdeeds of others, that is, a scape goat.
It’s a scene man! Now let me 23-skidoo, daddy-o.
That’s so gay.
Wish he’d hurry..
I was supposed to get my gear Fall of 2021... now it’s pushed to Mid-2022.
