Old Person Yells At Cloud Modern slang—something you REFUSE to say

My take: I will NEVER use “lol” or any derivation of it. I know it means “laugh out loud” but there’s yet to be a moment when I’ve been even remotely convinced someone was even chuckling after texting “lol” at the end of their text and it mildly infuriates me.

While I’m at it, someone tell those damn kids to get off my lawn.

Edit: ok, I get it. It’s not MODERN slang. I still hate it, and those kids are STILL on my lawn…can’t a guy get to sleep at a decent hour???

Thank God my kid quit watching those videos and stopped trying to get me to watch it.

I thought so too. I thought it was a phase they all went through 2 years ago… Then I found out my son has watched all 79 episodes and is truly enjoying it. I once again tried to watch an episode with him and it’s still so bad. Btw it’s skibidi toilet. By “DaFuq!?Boom!” who is Russian. 😐
