Every generation has slang, but Gen Alpha’s has a particularly unhinged quality, some parents say. Still, experts say their bad rep isn’t totally deserved.
In the beginning, there was “skibidi.”
It appeared abruptly in the lexicons of kids under 14 — the first slang term unique to Generation Alpha. Parents’ ears perked up as they began to hear it around the dinner table. It could mean bad, cool, or nothing at all, their kids explained. Then a dozen more incomprehensible terms followed suit.
Gen Z’s “slay” and “tea” are officially vintage, giving way to “sigma,” “gyatt” and “fanum tax.”
Everyone’s getting whiplash.
Cool. I was 27 in that case. Why would you expect me to be out there discovering new bands when I was trying to get my career off the ground?
I guess because I’m the same age and was getting my career off the ground at the same time. But everyone has different life experiences. I cannot fathom not exposing myself to new music.
And yet you decided it was unreasonable for me to have not heard of this band.
And there is no way you are my age and “Scene” was a thing when you were in high school. That’s just bullshit. This says that it started in the early 2000s:

Damn you went into this thread pissed off, didn’t you? You replied to the wrong person. I’m the one who said scene was a thing 10 years ago when I was in high school and middle school.
Chill and fully read the comments (username and all) before replying.
What exactly makes you think I’m angry? Is it my tone of voice?
