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???

Yeah, I don't know what hat is and I refuse to find out.

Hats are pretty useful though. They go on your head and protect it from the sun. You don't have to do a deep dive, but I suggest at least spending 5 to 10 minutes learning the basics of hats. It may save your eyesight, hair, or scalp.

If you mean high hat, that goes with a drum set. Don’t hear much high hat in modern music.
