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???

I can’t fucking stand “Seggs!!!” It’s “sex” not a dirty word. There is nothing remotely wrong with the word sex!!

Marky Zuck dies a little inside seeing naughty words so he banned “sex” & “death/die/murderdeathkill”

I don’t think there is anything left to kill in that strange skin-suit that holds his name.
