Kase,

This was a fitting moment for Teenagers by mcr to start playing in my headphones lol

Can we go to the alternate timeline where “Schway” takes off.

Anticorp,

I knew it was my time to join the old group when “slaps” became popular.

Hiro8811,

Slaps? I’m not even past my 20 and dunno what’s that.

Anticorp,

It’s used to imply something is good, ie. “that slaps!”

Okkai,

Is “slaps” still popular though? I remember that from around 2010 and have not heard it recently.

Anticorp,

I see it online all the time.

Idk, in my mind it still slaps

Twenty years ago my word was a finalist for the OED or Merriam Webster I forget which new word of the year. I probably peaked then.

Rhoeri,

Yep. Thats pretty much it.

Gullible,

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

Hate that one. It just doesn’t feel like something being thrown with force to me.

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.

He yeeted his phone out the window when he noticed there was a spider on the screen. It was not the best decision, but it was the choice he made.

Usernameblankface,
@Usernameblankface@lemmy.world avatar

Yes! It always makes me smile to hear it used. I think it sounds weird coming out of my own mouth, but it perfectly accentuates a funny story.

Klear,

I like l33t. That’s from the last decade, right?

samus12345,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

No, that goes as far back as the 80s and was fairly common by the 90s.

Klear,

Oh, thank you! You’re so smart!

samus12345,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

No, just old.

Gabu,

Not even close. Gen Z/Alpha have shit taste for slang.

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?

RampantParanoia2365,

Vibe, cringe, drip, mid

RampantParanoia2365,

Cringe is a very old and commonly used word.

Blackmist,

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

diffcalculus,

Rizzer please!

CalicoJack,

I feel like you’re playing a dangerous game there, and I respect it.

I rizz like you’re rizzing a rizzerous rizz there, and I rizz it.

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

Holyhandgrenade,
@Holyhandgrenade@lemmy.world avatar

Thanks, I hate it

Threeme2189,

Roll for nish

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.

How do you do fellow 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.

MNByChoice,

I have heard that part of the point is so that parents cannot understand the conversation. It is not a side effect, it is the point.

_danny,

This is one of those things that sounds like it could be true… Until you think about it at all. Think about the words you used as a child compared to how your parents talked.

Go look at 70’s and 80’s slang and consider if people spoke that way because they were trying to be sneaky, or if they were just trying to sound “hip”.

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.

koolkiwi,
@koolkiwi@lemmy.world avatar

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

Diabolo96,

Heard of the name but never really checked it. Reading the wiki, my idea wouldn’t achieve a 1/100 of the depth this game has to offers. Very impressive game .

Lileath,
@Lileath@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Pirate it if you are interested. The publisher fucked over the devs big time.

Diabolo96,

All big corpo is fucking over everyone.

If you didn’t already know by looking at my instance name, I already sails the high seas. We always welcome aboard new sailors so you’re welcome to visit our instance and learn.

Lileath,
@Lileath@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Ah, I didn’t pay attention to the instance you were posting from. I already frequent several of the comms on dbzero and like half of the games in my library are pirated but thanks for the kind offer.

AcidOctopus,

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

RaineV1,

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