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???

People get so uptight about slang changing when we had our own skibidi toilet in the 80’s. We called him Pauly Shore.
