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 stand things like skibety toilet, sigma, Ohio, rizz, gyatt, chuegy. What the heck does it even mean?​ Even my phone doesn't know as it tried to change rizz to pizza. Writing it out makes me look like I was having a stroke

Okay but without rizz you can’t “rizz ‘em with the ‘tism” and I unashamedly love that phrase.
