ain't got no rizz

116 comments

I knew this the first time I said "rip" out loud.
- Like RIP of a bong or RIP a line? Or RIP in peace?
  
  Rip in rest
  
  RIP in pepperoni
  
  RIP in peace. But now I'll say it even if I just drop my toast

This is me with 🤙I can't stop please help
- Right on, bruther🤙
  
  Keep it steezy brotato chip
- Shaka bruh 🤙

skull emoji
- 💀
- I wish I forgor 💀

I still say cool beans.
- No, no, that doesn't count. That's a classic bit of slang, not some trendy wave.
  
  It was when the Jumanji cartoon was a thing! I'm just old.
- Streets ahead, brah. The Brahm Meister.
- Awesome possum.
  
  Is this like the weird "criss cross apple sauce"?
- and radical rice!
- Same. I can't stop. Pls help.
- That phrase is just objectively cool beans, though

That is literally how language evolves.

Dude this meme is an absolute BANGER!
- Thanks fam

Are we still saying on fleek?
- The kids aren't. I can't speak on behalf of all 30+ yo people.
  
  No cap

It’s lit, fam.
- Lit AF

frfr ong no cap bro

Cap
- What does cap mean?
  
  Lie
- Literally the dumbest and most worthless gen z slang. It doesn't save any time whatsoever. Why would you need slang for a very specific thing like lying?
  
  Slang is for identifying the ingroup vs. the outgroup, not for efficiency of communication.
  
  ~~Especially when "cap" is already used to mean capacity limitation, like a bandwidth cap.~~
  edit: I should have looked it up rather than relying on my (mis)understanding from low-quality past conversations, where I thought this was a term kids tried to invent because it sounded cool.

Anyway don’t start conversations with your wife with “ay girl”

I've seen that lassie in another meme. How does on get such incredible eyebrows?!?!
- Isn't that Rey from the sequels?
- They're drawn on with a makeup pencil/waxed to oblivion
- Daisy Ridley

Not particularly cringey, but I started saying howdy for the giggles, and here I am now with it as one of my go-to greetings.
- My Yankee ass with "y'all"

Just yeet that shit

Sadge

Fk around and find oot
- Is this the Canadian version? Are you sure aboot this bud?

Slaps

I loved the Pogo comic strip (old shit from the '50s and one of the main influences on Bill Waterson for Calvin and Hobbes) growing up and it gave me the habit of using non-words like "momenterribly". I know it makes people think I'm a moron and I don't care.
It also gave me the habit of saying "Friday the 13th fall on a Tuesday this month". Same effect and same apathy on my part.
- If you remember Pogo, look up political novelist Ross Thomas. He was a Washington based reporter for most of the 1950s and started writing fiction in the 1960s. 'The Fools In Town Are On Our Side' is about an attempt to clean up a corrupt Southern city by making it so rotten that even the pimps will vote for reform.

Rey was on the great British bake off? What timeline is this?
- It's sad but she just wasn't able to do well in any of the tasks. She was too ambitious with the toilet idea, and just missed the mark with the raspberry ganache. She was an awesome sport though!
  
  Toilet idea is lit fam, yass queen

Cringe

Mid

ope
- Now you must learn the Midwest goodbye and make us proud
  
  slaps thighs WELP
  
  ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

I too am rizzless, fam.

oh mylanta

As an elder millennial, I'm fascinated by the slang and youth lingo these days. If you know any you think I might not have heard please share.

We used to say things were a total "cot death" back in the early 90s. Strangely that one didn't catch on outside of that specific friend group.

ah yeah, I remember when my son was born, the resident told his mother her eyebrows were fleek
don't say it to people about to undergo surgery, whatever the phrase is

I wish I had less self consciousness so my vocabulary consisted of more than fifteen words.
- I add words to my online vocabulary first, and when I'm comfortable slipping shit like bet and yeet and based into my comments I start slipping them into my real vocab

Perf

- We drinking fentanyl... Laced Cereal milk.
  I'm peaking on that Danny Phantom slime, can you remind me who I am?

Drip

Yup! ...and yup

The fuck is rizz?
- Charisma
  
  My man
- Charisma, particularly (but not necessarily) with regard to the opposite sex
  As usual, the best dictionary has an entry on it! It isn't exactly the same as my definition, but I'm not some prescriptivist who's gonna say it's wrong
- Rizz is exactly the kind of slang our screaming twenties was missing.
  The 1920's was top of the slang game.
- Not jizz, for sure.

A friend of mine somehow said “rad” in a way that was ironic, gently mocking, and sincerely complimentary at the same time. It was perfect. I don’t think I’ll ever meet someone else who manages to say any word in quite that way.

What's a rizz?
- Charisma

What ever
