It's millennials trying to fit in with Gen Z to prove to themselves they're not old.

[–] CrowAirbrush@lemm.ee 65 points 11 months ago (3 children)

I know i'm old, i just found a new hobby: messing woth the younger generation by messing with their slang.

You know, like how grandpa called every pokeman pikachu...but on purpose.

[–] noli@programming.dev 67 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Grandpa knew what he was doing when he called all the pokemen pikachu

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 31 points 11 months ago (2 children)

pokemen

I... I think I'm having a panic attack.

Right? Everyone knows the correct plural form of "pokemon" is "pokemons".

[–] Decoy321@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Nah, it's 2020s, the proper term is pokepersons.

I spit out my drink.

No, no, it's okay. It's just a stroke.

I mess with my zoomer children all the time: bruh, no cap, on god, sus/sussy, my guy.

They mostly roll their eyes, but I do enjoy it.

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 19 points 11 months ago

My favorite is on cap, no god.

I definitely enjoyed that xD

Yeah no millennial is doing that to fit in/not feel old (okay there are probably some but they're a minority for sure), at best they're doing that to be annoying/make fun of the crazy slang.

It's very incredibly lit, fam.
