IzzyScissor,

Rizz = chaRISma

Use it the way your parents would use "game".

EvilHankVenture,

Use it the way your parents would use “game”.

Ok so it’s like this::

Did you win the rizz?

This meat is a little rizzy.

Don’t play rizzes with me.

diffcalculus,

Excellent

Annoyed_Crabby,

Zelda Breath of the Wild is a very unique videorizz

Kase,

Yup, you got it!! 😁🤭

sock,

no obviously he’s talking more like:

im going hunting for some rizz.

this meat has a rizzy taste.

AgentGrimstone,

Ah. It’s a lot more tolerable knowing that. Now what about “drip”?

SasquatchBanana,

Drip refers to how someone dresses. Someone who is drippy has a lot of style.

Also, this has been in circulation for a few years now.

AgentGrimstone, (edited )

I was more wondering why that word. Like “rizz” came from “charisma” but “drip” doesn’t seem to have an origin like that.

I’m getting up there so I’m out of the loop from pretty much anything in the last decade. I only started hearing the drips this year.

samus12345,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

Drip appears to be a metaphor: You’re dripping with money, designer clothes, or confidence.

As good an explanation as any. I’ve never heard it before, but it’s weird to hear it with a positive connotation since a person being a drip is not a good thing.

dditty,

I’ve also heard drip’s origin explained as what happens when you’re hot and wearing a lot of “ice”

RatzChatsubo,

Drip comes from making a woman wet because you look really good

irmoz,

Please tell me that’s not true

Cethin, (edited )

It’s started to be used as in “flirt” though, as a verb (or at least my young cousin has used it this way that I’ve heard). As in, you rizz someone -> you flirt with someone. It sounds really strange when you know it (used to) mean charisma, but whatever.

PhlubbaDubba,

I think it’s short for rolling charisma on them since D&D has become a pop culture source now

Especially with all the memes about horny bards and reminders that persuasion is not rolling for mind control.

tory, (edited )

I saw this elsewhere, but the term rizz does imply the existence of other words to shorten all the typical rpg attributes.

Unsure what they would all be, but I’m thinking these other four seem pretty easy to agree upon:

Toosh = constitution

Tren = strength

Teri = dexterity

Telli = intelligence

JohnDClay,

Yeah those are all abbreviated con, str, dex, and int. I wonder why charisma isn’t abbreviated cha. Maybe that was too close to con?

tory,

You must be great at parties, lol.

JohnDClay,

D&d parties yes!

Klaymore,
@Klaymore@sh.itjust.works avatar

In D&D it is abbreviated cha, it’s just that rizz sounds more goated and fire.

quindraco,

It’s just an abbreviation of charisma.

Gabu,

Why?

Diabolo96,

Long ago, I had had an idea of an rpg where you play as an introvert with sever anxiety. Each dialogue is a fight.

New style learned : young talk.

Effects in dialogue : cause cringe status effect to surrounding characters if they are young adults or younger, otherwise cause confusion.

MNByChoice,

That is a great i idea.

Diabolo96, (edited )

I have quite a lot of ideas and whil I am an amateur programmer,such games need stellar writing to be worth it and I doubt I can pull it off. Also, while the art doesn’t need to be very fancy, I can’t draw for beans.

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot,

You’d be drawing for humans, though. Beans rarely play video games.

Diabolo96, (edited )

I actually rely on a very human effect to scribble as a de-stress mechanism. I paint and remove random lines until pareidolia kicks in and I see a form in the nonsense. I then just add eyes and a mouth and some additional touches . Sometimes, I end up with some nice character concepts I wish I could use.

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot,

I showed your drawings to some beans. They were very impressed.

Diabolo96, (edited )

Beans do be having a good taste in art. Especially, lemmy beans. Stress based Automatic drawing is the future of modern art. /j

AcidOctopus,

Disco Elysium is sorrrrta like that, if you squint a bit.

Not focused around being an introvert or different dialogue styles exactly, but you’re a mess of a human being and conversations can literally hurt you, as it tracks your mental health as well as physical.

You should try it if you haven’t already.

It also does damage to you as the person sitting in front of the screen whenever you disappoint Kim!

Diabolo96,

If you’re interested then you should definitely give it a shot. There’s no combat - all your “battles” are just conversations 😅

Rizz is a shortened word for ‘charisma’ and specifically for skill in charming or seducing a potential romantic partner, especially through verbal communication.

ItsMeForRealNow,

That’s so rizz

progettarsi, (edited )

knowledge rizz

AngryCommieKender,

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!!!

XbSuper,

Rizz was the final straw for me. I no longer have any interest in attempting to understand today’s youth.

They just need to shut up and get off my lawn.

samus12345,

I’ve never heard the term before. I guess that makes me extra old.

Every generation does this. The boomers had their fair share of dumb slang terms as well but for some reason everyone loves to hate the next generation for doing the exact same thing.

Only you can stop it, by being old and using it wrong. You bunch of rizzers.

WhiskyTangoFoxtrot,

I don’t think you can say that word.

funkless_eck,

Floating toilet heads flirt as a method of stealing your food, which only happens in Ohio as thats where a lot of cryptids are supposed to come from, and also have voluptuous posteriors, an ultra-capitalist competitive outlook, and I am so confident this is the truth I will mock your relative performance to mine as inadequate and, finally, a dog joins in as a non sequitur because humans are doing it and using synecdoche I am implying you are also just a sheep.

through her expression of mirth, disgust, and dismay

Ask her if she’s aware that her teenage ennui and angst cause early wrinkles, poor muscle definition, and weight gain (it doesn’t necessarily, but I am an agent of chaos).

Then, tell her the way she processes emotions is basic, and her perpetual sneer is making her acne problem worse (also, not true, necessarily).

Enjoy popcorn as you drive her to therapy.

I’m not saying this is moral. But as a childless 40 year old uncle to teenage nieces and nephews with attitude problems, in the words of Michael Jordan, “Fuck them kids.”

pigup,

Except they didn’t make it up, like most previous generations, genz has stolen from black American vernacular.

Overshoot2648,

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.

PhlubbaDubba,

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.

slackassassin,

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.

RaineV1,

Rizz at least makes some sense as a shortened version of charisma.

Gullible,

Has anyone ever found a slang term coined in the last decade that they unironically enjoy using?

Bread,

I am not fond of slang, but even I have to admit it is a fun word. It also has a great meaning. To throw something with great speed in any general direction but usually quite far.

samus12345,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, that’s what every generation says. I’m impressed by slang that stands the test of time, like “cool.” It’s been around for 80 or so years!

Gabu,

Yeah, that’s what every generation says.

And most of them are right, it’s why slang dies so quickly. Gen Z/Alpha are just particularly inept at it, probably from having their brains fried by social media.

SorryQuick,

Isn’t that what we’re both doing right now, getting our brains fried by social media?

slackassassin,

Ya it’s lit af tbh.

Gabu,

I don’t know about you, but I’m partaking in digital discussion. Surely you can easily notice the difference between what’s happening here and, say, a tiktok, right?

Cringe is a very old and commonly used word.

fosforus, (edited )

I was kinda worried for a while that since kids these days don’t really have music as a tool to rebel against their parents, and as for shocking via clothing or something like goth or satanism… they’re just recycling 80s and 90s all over again. So how are they gonna do it?

Not so worried anymore. They always find something. And not just from language. The ways to be fucking idiots are endless and as a really novel thing, kids these days go up to 30 year olds.

GardeningSadhu,

We were not allowed to walk around in clothing that is revealing like today’s kids are. That’s the rebellion and well, call me a dirty old man but i’m sure enjoying it.

tegs_terry,

Woe betide you’re seen wearing the same top on instagram though, that’s where the opprobrium comes from nowadays.
