Must be getting older now cause there is some stuff I see online that really makes me cringe hard. Number one thing is "we stan". Stanning something is not a good thing. Stan is an insane fanboy. I don't get it.

There isn't any - I adopt all slang and make it my own to piss off those around me.
This thread is pretty lit, fam.
Peace out, tho.

Is that on god, no cap, periodt?
Oh yeah I forgot about this. There's one twitch person I used to watch who yells POG! POG!!! eehh.. dropped that pretty quick.
nice name and avatar btw sigsig good song. happy sky is my fav style.
I've seen some Twitch streamers say the names of emotes out loud. Stuff like "pog". It's...going too far
I don't really visit Twitch all that often, so I wonder what kind of slang is Twitch-exclusive
I'm still waiting for "stan" to be replaced by something else without anyone noticing, like seems to happen to all internet slang. But it's sticking around longer than I thought it would.
Speaking in generally but maybe not in this thread's case, I'm always curious when a lot of slang created by and for minorities get tut-tutted by middle aged SWMs. Like you see curmudgeons on TV going on about how they don't understand what the youths are saying and hate that there are shorthands. Could that quality as a sort of phobia or discrimination?
I love how this forum is turning more and more into a bunch of old people moaning about young people. I think we need to seriously think about starting up a dedicated subforum to contain all these threads, as they're becoming more and more common in both the gaming and off-topic sections.
Yeah, this one took the longest time. I think it means Relax.
Say for instance a group of kids are breaking up a fight between some of them, they'll pull them away while saying "Koch blood! Koch! Koch!"
The insane overuse of the word "like" drives me nuts. I sat next to a couple my age on the train recently and actually got up and sat somewhere else because I was seemingly unable to let this shit go.
"So like, I was like, holy shit like, and then I told him like...wow like fuck yeah!"
What???

pretty much every youtube comment that follows some ubiquitous joke format.
