minus-squarebobs_monkey@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up12arrow-down1·8 months agoWhat 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
minus-squareTheDoozer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7arrow-down1·8 months agoYes to all except jiggy. I feel like that was just Will Smith trying to make Fetch happen.
minus-squarewavebeam@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·8 months agoIdk, I got like all the jiggy’s before beating gruntilda

minus-squareNιƙƙιDιɱҽʂ@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11arrow-down1·8 months agoYou 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.

minus-squareNιƙƙιDιɱҽʂ@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·8 months agoAs someone who grew up in rural Canada, I feel that. We always felt a decade out of date on fads and slang lol.
