Probably to the "oh my god new slang so cringe this youth" crowd. You know, those who always said they'll never get old and annoying non-understanding adults… and now became exactly that. 😁
i still do not see good evidence for this being actual slang people use seriously, it just looks like old video game ads where adults write scripts with what they think kids sound like, and then we look back and laugh at how stupid it is
That's because it's exaggerated, and the kids play into it rather than cringing and moving on like you might have when you were a kid and adults tried using your slang. The reason is that unlike previous generations, gen Z has incorporated it into youth culture as a result of the current state of the internet and has a name to call it by: brainrot.
see python:
yep, day day ruined
Gen Z was a mistake
most coherent esolang
Came here to say, I find this more palettable than most such refferernces in the wild.
Not even letting your bop cook?
Yo chat, we’re cooked
No
I think it's missing another its giving inside the let him cook.
(Only young programmers will understand)
I don't get it? Is it how the youth speak?
Yep, it is. Mostly Twitch streamers and other such online personas, though.
I understand about 20% of this..
Pretty sure I understand less about the slang now that I've seen it in this format, but I still prefer it to other encounters I've had.
it's funny but also frightening that younger generations' slang follows a trend of being reduced to 3 or 4 letters. Delulu is an outlier at 6 whole letters, but you can see the mental laziness that resulted in it. These idiots are going to be in charge of a burning planet one day and won't even be able to read the reports of the minds that came before them. It's scary to imagine being alive when they're in charge.
Bommer got no rizz lmao get mogged
"Its shocking that slang shortens words a lot" Pop culture being idiotic isn't new. It's idiotic to generalize an entire generation based off of it.
ur dululu
😝💦
I'm not sure if reading comprehension was taught at your education institution (did you attend one? :?) but nobody generalized an entire generation based off of pop culture. You might consider returning to them and asking for a refund, assuming you paid anything for it. Tata :)

"hot shit" used to be a compliment. The people that made up that phrase are currently in charge of the planet.
