So... is she sending the dick into the friend zone? Or is she saying that the dick is effectively a friend zone and she wants to use it more? Or is she saying that everyone in her friend zone goes on his dick? Or should he put anyone in his friend zone on his dick? I'm confused.
That’s how slang develops. It starts in ingroup vernacular and propagates out either fizzling out or sticking around as an actual word. AAVE is one of several sources. LGBTQ, sports, and video game lingo tend to be other popular sources.
Yup, “Y’all” is the example I’d raise for folks who say it’s all AAVE, Y’all pretty firmly comes into American vernacular out of its use among rural farming communities, not necessarily usage among black culture.
Not to mention how a significant chunk of new vernacular is going to always be coming from the diasporatic distribution pipeline bringing new languages and dialects to America constantly. Granted this is mostly how new kinds of food enter the American linguistic pallette, but you get the idea.
Ya, it comes from all over. Culture is a shared experience that brings people together and should not be treated as antagonistic, regardless of origin.
Yeah, rizz isn’t new. It’s just short for charisma. Their usage of it is new and wacky though. You don’t charisma someone. You do something charismatically. It’s an adjective or adverb, not a verb.
Well, it’s being used in English, so as long as the intended meaning comes across it can be all three and whatever else so long as it still communicates the intended message.
This is what happens when your anglo-saxon, having just diverged from old Norse and Latin, begins to lose it’s declensions and conjugations… It’s its biggest problem, that that abominable process occurred…
I used to be with “it,” then they went and changed what was “it.” Now what used to be “it” is lame, and what is “it” is new and scary. And it will happen to you too!!!
EDIT: It feels like some people aren’t getting the joke, to clarify all of these words mean roughly the same thing but are a few years apart from each other.
Hes excited by the gift that reflects something in their relationship, but it looks like a relationship killer. Her calling him “sweetie” and touching him lightly implies it isnt a break up, so it must just be the end of their sex life.
Amazing how much emotion you can convey with no expressions.
