I'm trying to connect with the youth in online vidya but every time I try to say the frs, the finnas, the poggers, and the vibes these damn kids call me a boomer. How the fuck am I supposed to talk to young people in vidya gaems?

All of what you said is outdated. Slang changes rapidly.

Finna has been around since at least the 90s, if not longer. Anyway, why do you want to hang out with dumbass kids?

I like saying Swag and YOLO unironically, same with epic and pwned. I earned my right to be cringe.

Most kids in high school today would have zero clue what those words mean, or find them completely unoffensive and just think you're old and using "normal" old-people slang. It's been that long. It's like hearing someone say "groovy" in the early 2000s or late 90s.

Stop trying to talk like them. Do you not remember your own experiences with older people trying to connect with you through slang? It's fucking embarrassing. Just talk the way you normally do instead of being the refurbished version of grandma throwing gangsigns and saying "yoyoyo homie"
>>
>>719692858
Talk about trannies, Femtanyl (that's a musician I think) FNAF and Deltarune. Look up whatever the newest popular three-hour youtube video is about.
Be sure to avoid words like suicide, retard, faggot, spastic, nigger etc. Anything that could have any kind of negative connotations.

>suicide, retard, faggot, spastic, nigger etc.
It's funny how people think kids don't use these words anymore because their only impression of young people is the internet. Tons of them use these words to be rude or offensive in pretty much the same way people always have.

Why the fuck is Twitter/Discord/Reddit humor so prevalent despite being obnoxiously insufferable? These kinds of Zoomers are everywhere now, there's no escape from them, they have to forcefully insert memes amidst every single thing they say, whether it's relevant to the conversation or not.

They keep using brainrot words/catchphrases/snowclones/emojis such as "seethe", "on god", "clown on", "lit", "unironically", "peak", "legit", "literally", "sus", "blud", "Ohio", "fr", "no cap", "ayo", "y'all", "rizz", "gyatt", "bussin'", "dope", "deadass", "lowkey", "vibe (check)", "vibing", "mood", "yikes", "I'ma/Imma", "wild", "wholesome", "problematic", "toxic", "incel", "chud", "oof", "ratio", "cope" & "seethe", "unalive", "ngl", "s2g", "based" & "cringe", "gooner"/"gooning", "POV: *", "(go) touch grass", "(me) when the", "you fell off", "it's almost as if *", "sir, this is a Wendy's", "tell me * without telling me *", "let him cook", "this, so much this", "my brother in Christ", "rent free", "you must be fun at parties", "* here, can confirm", "wow, just wow", "what da dog doin'", "GOAT", "that's crazy (but I don't remember asking)", "ok, *oomer", "who asked?", "didn't ask", "the hero we need but don't deserve", "the * is strong with this one", "(take the) L", "cries in *", "literally me", "skill issue", "oh he mad", "protip: you can't", "what did he mean by this?", "nobody: literally nobody:", "it's the * for me", "valid", "glow up", "let people enjoy things", "who hurt you?", "this slaps", "LET'S GOOO!", "uncomfy", "we are so back", "it's over", "delete this", "trauma(core)", "um, sweaty", "I'm not *, but *", "cisgender"/"cishet", "I'm dying rn", "relatable", "oomfie", "me on the right/left", "sis", "edgy", "* be like", "this had me *", "that one friend when *", "straight up", "I'm 'boutta *", "we gettin' * with this one", "thicc", "sigma", "eating good", "yeet" and so on.

Also, saying "bro" all the time, it's the most annoying filler word out there.

Just don't say it, just learn them, not everyone uses those silly words, people usually think that I'm way younger because of my voice and I don't use any kind of slang to "fit in".
I recently learned that they use "TS" to say "This Shit".
I find it fun to learn all those words, is there a new hip new word on the block?

Nobody actually says any of this shit, it's just non-stop Discord raids to decrease the posting quality of other forums and tunnelvisioned algorithm trash.
>>719695794
It's just bots scraping aggregation sites and being used everywhere else. Anyone trying to make engagement bait needs to conform to the scraping and gets scraped in turn, leading to increasingly tunnelvisioned degeneration where noise starts to become more signal than any remnant of signal actually buried in the stream.
>>719696593
It is unfortunate that almost everyone born after the cutoff point is no longer sentient.
>>
>>719692858
Nobody except ironypoisoned millennials actually use this brand of shitposting. You're talking to your own.

A lot of these are either decades old millennial speak (cringe, toxic), meme speak from 4chan (protip: you can't), or reheated nigger talk (finna)

Zoomer talk isn't very original unless you're like 45.

why the fuck does saying "cool" never go out of style? it's the one slang that's fucking immortal.
>>
>>719697786
It's useful to have a commonly accepted and unchanging word that means "in style" as a north star of sorts so you always know where you stand. Otherwise someone might not know what you mean by "schway" or "rad" or "poppin" or whatever the totally tubular cool-du-jour is.
