All of a sudden I'm seeing people overuse this new phrase. It entered the vocabulary of ziggers and there's no explanation for what it means or where it came from.1. Where do these new phrases come from?2. Why do zigs adopt these new phrases immediately without hesitation?
some influencer uses it. there was an article in the wsj about the new gen a or whatever crap "67" but they eventually get to the point that it was part of a viral marketing campaign for some product or service. none of these things are organic. it's always orchestrated by some marketing firm with a roster of influencers and a big bot network.
I just say crash and burn which I’m pretty sure came from here as a single line copypasta. Truth is it’s just hard to say anything entirely original, you’re always pulling these phrases from the outside culture.
looks like a forced meme to me>1. Where do these new phrases come from?some discord or whatever teens use these days
>>24812877>it’s just hard to say anything entirely originalThere's 50K+ English words to choose from you dumb faggot. You don't need to invent new words and phrases. You have an insane array to choose from already. Stop being a bum and investigate. Twit and Disc troons will invent any excuse to justify their bad behavior.
>Is that language evolving?!! AAAHH IM GOING INSANEWhy are people like this
>>24812942Autists tend to get angry at insignificant things
>>24812866>the younger generation has lingo i dont like!
"burn out" and "crashing" (like falling asleep) have been slang for ages, this is just a combination of the two.
>>24812942organic evolution doesn't happen in twelve hours out of nowhere
>>24812981What the fuck do you consider organic evolution of a language then?
>>24812981>believes its been twelve hoursAnon.. its been at least a year since I've noticed, even then I wouldnt know how long its been in slang.
>>24812981Its the internet age, things move faster than they did a hundred years ago. Tons of writers have coined terms that they just made up themselves, how is that any more organic?
>>24812866>ziggersthat word doesnt mean what you think it means
>>24812942It's not evolution. Words and phrases are rising and falling within months.
its called slang
>>24813021You don't have to call it "evolution" but its still a language that changes over time. Its always happened but the internet has accelerated the rate of it.
>>24812866>slang exists>anon loses his mind
>>24812866Pretty sure it's been around for years, but yeah, usage has noticeably spiked recently for whatever reason. "Glazing" is another one I used to hear here and there and now hear every hour. I'm getting old and I'm trying not to use slang words any more. If I find myself about to say "vibes" or something with that youth sting, I just substitute another word.
>>24812866It means to get so angry you act niggerly (destroy everything and everyone around you).I had heard this term years ago, and like every other zoomer slang, it always either originates from 4chan or blacks. In this case it's a black slang. Kendrick Lamar, in one of his awful songs, says "imma crash out like fuck rap, diss melle mel if I have to" which is him dissing Drake as a condition for his contract renewal. The parent company UMG wanted to devalue Drake and basically wrote and promoted Kendrick's disses, and I'd eager this term was pushed by them inorginacally during that period. Since then people use it all the time.My qualifications are: I work in marketing, I am a zoomer and I keep up with rap because I liked it a decade ago.
>>24813047People have been saying shit like "im going to go crash out on the couch" for decades, I think its just somewhere along the line people started interpreting it as more of an aggressive "getting fed up and reaching a breaking point" rather than a passive "Im tired of it and am going to bed"
>>24813085Brother I gave you the history lesson, of course we've all heard crashing out before, but this is the Genesis of it's zoomer use.
>>24812942>evolving Oh my Fauci I just heggin gay love SCIENCE, amirite redditsisters??1?!
>>24813130Kill yourself. Its the only way to make your family happy.
>>24813023I'd bust the fattest nut on her hair
>>24812942No, this is deevolution, just like how most modern 'music' is 90% the n-word, or if it's a woman artist, various roastie activities. No wonder the average westerner is a vile person, when this is all they hear all day
>>24813085No, we said "I'm going to crash on the couch" for when we were insanely tired and needed to figuratively pass out - "crash out" means to have a meltdown triggered by something like break up or someone on the internet disagreeing with you.
back in my day we'd just chimp out down the meme mine and we were happy
>>24813174Addendum: and "crash" could mean to just stay somewhere, like "I'm going to crash at her place" meant you were staying over at her place. It's not synomous with "crash out"
>>24813021I bet you don't even know what a skibidi is
>>24812866It's a humiliation ritual
>>24813178Actually "chimp out" is a word only really used by a specific set of users of a specific part of the internet, the influence of "crash out" is far greater and realized outside of the internet significantly more often. You just don't got it, geezer.
>>24813047Informative/10Thanks!
>>24812966I wouldn't at all call them insignificant
It's "chimp out", right down to the implication that the person involved is black, but sanitized. As to the sudden ubiquity, I'm sure it was some dumb fucking tiktok video or something and it's just part of the larger trend of the negrification of language.
>>24813598english is unironically the most perfect language of all times because of its free and easy, imperialistic, and world-dominating ignorance of petulant continental distinctions like germanic or latinate word origin. and your equally petulant suggestion that inironically "should" be used only reveals your ignorance of the sonority of contemporary english compound word formation. "un" evokes "undo" - to do something unironically is to take something done ironically and make it sincere again, undoing the irony and bringing it back home to authenticity where the speaker feels it belongs.
>>24812866>ZUTTthis is the new meme wordapparently mohamhead was gang raped by negros>top kek
>>24813708Im tired of schizotards
>>24812942In no way does replacing language with a euphamism some retarded nigger said constitute "evolution".
>>24813702This. It makes sense when you read it. The suffix makes sense when applied to the word to make a neologism.If people know what you mean and you construct a word out of existing morphemes it is an English word. That we lack something like the Academie Francais is an unparalleled blessing.I’ve heard some of these “academies” especially in certain Slavic countries have purposely purged many Latinate words and invented new Slavic root words, thereby reducing pan-European mutual intelligibility and making their language less functional and more incongruent with the broader European sprachbund in the pursuit of “purity.”English, being a practical language that evolves entirely through usage, has naturally had an easier time winning over converts even when the dominance of America/UK has not been a factor.
>>24813689>youths
>>24812866>>24812889This.I don't have a problem with new words or slang, I have a problem with people. Like a herd of animals grazing across the great plain, oh look there's a fresh patch of a straw, herd gorges, then on to the next. Only thing I'm waiting and wondering about is when will this zoomer slang be considered lame even by zoomers
>>24814920When gen alpha grows up
are you sure crashing out is a new one
>>24813023And slang is the speech of him who robs the literary garbage carts on their way to the dumps.
>>24812866Nigga this is just how language works kek the internet probably accelerates the speed at which neologisms are created and killed but the cycle itself exists in every single language until it dies.Idk the etymology behind ‘crashing out’ specifically but most of these lexemes are created by (or as a reaction to) communities with a strong in group identity like african americans, internet groups etc and then the terms are eventually adopted by a wider demographic
The first time I heard "crashing out" was a Larkin Love JOI video 10 years ago
