Don’t forget how casual the r word was. Every comedy of the 90s and 2000s called somebody that. It’s still too commonly used but nothing like it was back then.
Yeah my friends and I unfortunately used it when we were in grade school and it was so commonplace. Then I didn’t use it for probably the last 17+ years, but now it seems like it’s making somewhat of a resurgence? I’m hearing it more often again which is totally inappropriate
We had a couple weeks calling people “F.A.G.s’ and “M.A.G.s” for 'female ass grabber” and “male ass grabber”. As in someone how grabd a females ass or or a male ass. I have no idea how the teachers were able to do anything about that with a straight face.
Just because you don’t remember it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. You had to learn it at some point. You weren’t born with a lexicon of slang that revealed itself when it suddenly became modern/relevant lol
You have a point, but when I was a kid we at least made sure the slang came from black people first. I don’t think anything good can come from white kids out there making up words.
Don’t pretend you didn’t become obsessed with whatever cool new slang was flavour of the month when you were a child
I don’t remember getting any new slang as a kid.
Yeah, we just called people fags (sorry) or gay.
90s and early 00s were N O T LGBT friendly

not to mention the casual use of the hard R. even Linus from LTT admitted to have dropped his fair share of hard Rs back then.
Plus there was a lot of n*rcissist thrown around back then

This is what we called cigarettes in Australia.
That’s because to you it was just normal.
What I remember from the 90/00s: sinch, hella, coolio, jam (going), spaz, poser, chillax, bitchin, burn, noob, booyah, aight, duh, phat, sup, stoked, jiggy, harsh, buzz kill
There’s a shitton more, but that’s what I got off the top of my head
Yes to all except jiggy. I feel like that was just Will Smith trying to make Fetch happen.
He was streets ahead!
You were learning slang along with everything else. At that age, it doesn’t stand out against everything else the same way it does when you’re older.

80s had a ton.
I did not, for I was a loser who didn’t know slang
No shot fellow cool kid
Dude practically became a verbal tick
Watching millennials/gen x pick on Gen Z for the same behaviors we all had gets old doesn’t it?
Fr, no cap
True dat
