for example, if one of the characters wants to say “bye mom”, they might instead say “PEACE OUT BROTHER! MM MM OH YEAH!” and starts dancing/doing a “cool” gesture.
some of them also use “tiktok speak”/brainrot but i don’t get why, since wouldn’t this be “cooler” with children? i don’t know any actual adults who like things like that nor do they speak like that.
are they perhaps making fun of the younger generation? because it seems genuine, not making fun.
It could be an instance of “how do you do, fellow kids?”
Wanting to fit in but not knowing how to do it right.
What exactly are you trying to say? I can barely understand this post. Do you have examples?
In the 90s we had “See you on the flippity flip” - it’s almost certainly genuine and talking to folks in the language they more commonly use because that’s how pop culture pops.
Eat my shorts!
ooohh, thank you
Code switching.
I’ve never seen this
odd. i mean, i also see this a lot on instagram stuff to promote their shows, i guess. new american dad doesn’t do this much, but i know the beginning of the new episode had roger being emo or something and saying “emo af!” not exactly brainrot, but still
I’m pretty sure the target audience for American Dad is teenagers?
I’m pretty sure Family Guy and American dad are just AI written at this point. Those shows haven’t been funny in like 10 years at least
(couldn’t find comment on blahaj) yeah, probably, did seth mcfarlane stop writing for them or something? it’s starting to feel like teens are writing it
Seth hasn’t been writing for Family Guy since like 2006
Ahh. It’d prob be better if he wrote
Why? Watch Orville instead.
ohhh, that makes sense now, i thought it was targeted for adults
More accurately, it’s targeted for “not children”
Adults happen to be “not children”, but teenagers REALLY WANT to be “not children”
They also say “fire” like every new episode.
