That’s hilarious. I love it
Ewwwwww do people actually talk like that
No I’ve never seen people talk so proper like the sign on the left
Can someone translate this into emojis?

A principal I worked for one time asked me to write up a student survey. It annoyed me, so I wrote up the entire thing in that type of cringy try hard lingo. It backfired as she loved it and the students took it. The students in my class looked at me when they gave it to the school and said,“WTF sin_free?” I said sorry, they asked why, I explained the situation, they laughed and we moved on.
Sure, moved on. An entire school has a memory of you being cringe. Every drinking party with new friends will start with “lmao remember when sin_free tried to be funny”
Accurate, but cringe
It would have to be cringe to be accurate
frfr
So, accurate.
No cap
That second sign has big “hello fellow children” vibes.
I assume the language used is already dated. They’ll need to change the sign every year.
Needs some bussin, no cap and fr fr.
thats crazyyy unc 😭🙏
needs more bets and caps, right?

I took this text and made ChatGPT translate it to 2008 teenager lingo:
Yo, what’s good? If you peep anything sketchy or straight-up wack, like a jacked-up toilet or whatever, hit me up at -number- ASAP. For real though, we’re low-key hustlin’ to make this campground poppin’. We ain’t stoppin’ till this spot’s lit AF and everyone’s vibin’ with it. We’re counting on you, fam. Much love, thanks!
That’s hella accurate
Thanks park ranger Guy Fieri
damn is lit and low-key really out of date now?
I tell you the rapper‘s tongue that was lit AF back when Pimp my Ride was the shit is gonna be old lad‘s lingo sooner than…. The PS5 lost its stance to the PS6
I hate that this feels natural, and I wasn’t even speaking English in 2008
I’m so sorry. Do you need a hug?
I could use one for sure
hug
I feel like ChatGPT pulled this right out of 1999.
“lit” seems like a 21st century artefact to me
It’s straight up is… we said things were bomb or sick
I am a teenager and can’t understand shit. What does HMU even mean?
It means High Maintenance Uncle. smh my head
Hit me up, it’s more of a 2010s thing
Oh christ we’re already referencing pop-culture of the 2010s, help me I don’t like this aging thing.
ok boomer
“Hit me up” I think
The translation is accurate and commendable
I wouldn’t know. Because I am old and I feel it right now.
A time-proven antidote to aging is incorporating more youthful slang into your vocabulary. And before you clapback at me, I’ve been trying it myself and it’s pretty bussin’ bruh. I’m dripping all over the place now!
Ew, don’t drip on me.
And just to clarify, it is my understanding that “pretty bussin’ bruh” is quite different than “pretty bussy, bruh”. Correct?
No. They’re the same. I think the second one has become more popular. You should probably just use that. No cap.
(cap)
On God that bruh’s bussy’s straight bussin’ fr fr.
I believe you could buss’ in a bussy if you were so inclined
Look at this fuckin drip god over here
Drip god sounds like a brand of a mop or household cleaning supplies.
Man if I had more fucking ambition or energy, you’re absolutely right and I could be so rich right now but again, I’m lazy and full of depression… but if somebody runs with this idea, can I be on the team? I need a win in my life.
I’m an older guy - over 60 - and I absolutely love using slang that was popular before I was born. At work, I liberally say things like “swell,” “keen,” and “golly.” I’ve been doing it for years; when I started, everyone knew what I was doing (most laughed), but now there are a lot of folks who are young enough that they just assume it’s slang I grew up with, which makes me laugh.
You’re a radical cat daddyo
I have, on occasion, stuck out my gyat for the daddyo
Untubular dude. Untubular.
You’ve just ruined the Irish classic “whiskey in the jar” for me, thanks.
Was watching Point Break again the other day and the desire to speak like a 90s surfer dude is kinda overwhelming, compadre.
i dont get it either, no cap
Fr fr ong
Your slang is bussing, fellow skibidi!
Str8 rizz.
What is HMU? The only thing that sounds right if I rack my brain, is “holler me up”, but idk I’m mentally old and can’t keep up with “hip” culture.
Hit me up. Ie. contact me.
“holler me up”
Almost got it! HMU stands for “hit me up”, as in contact me.
I mean, holler also means contact me so it could be that, it would just sound a little silly. Not like holla at ya boi
Absolutely, I’m just relaying what I’ve heard in case the commenter wants to talk with some youths in their vernacular. I don’t want them to be all “holler me up my fellow kids!”
What a violent generation, jk jk
I think it’s warning us about snakes that can kill? I don’t know…
If someone blew up the toilet or smtg sus, hmu. tbh we high-key tryna glow-up this campground frfr. can’t stop won’t stop til this place straight up slays ong. need ur help fam. thx
That was my first thought but then I realized that if I, a 30-something year old old person, understand every word of it, it’s gotta be a lil sus.
If that’s accurate then I got old way faster than I thought I would. At least I can take solace in the fact that I’m probably on the younger end of Lemmy users.
It’s got too much punctuation though. That’s not a dig either, it really does have too much for what they’re trying for.
I would expect at least some of those acronyms to be all lowercase too tbh
And missing “u” and “ur”
This is so cringy. I also feel old
When the campground texts you back with a green bubble
When your opinions are based on bullshit brand loyalty free marketing

What is a green bubble?
Apple, in an attempt to leverage social pressure to drive sales instead of actually providing a quality product, displays texts from Android devices in a deliberately unpleasant to look at shade of green, and cripples features of the group chat if even one member of it is using a non-Apple device, incentivizing groups of friends and even families to ostracize people for using a different phone.
It also fucks with the quality of videos to the point where they are unwatchable if you have an android
I am on apple. The other day two people from a group of friends were texting me and sent videos. The apple user sent a nice vid. The next was from a potato back 20 years in time. Or it could have been the latest android flagship. I don’t really know, but it feels annoying and unnecessary.
mossy liked “Apple, in an attempt to leverage social pressure to drive sales instead of actually providing…”
Wat
Apple users get the option to “react” to messages, adding things like 💜 or 👍 to the message. Since it’s not natively supported by other messaging apps, those users get a message that looks like mine instead of an emoji.
Ohh, but why in this context then still
because… the person I was replying to was talking about it? The intent was to be funny, I suppose.
hello fellow kids!
It’s weird seeing English become unreadable from the other side. It’s like going back to ye olde Englishe but forward in time.
The Simpsons “it will happen to youuuuu” gag still holds true. You’ll never be cool forever. What’s cool will change.
Forgot to say no cap, on god
Fr fr fr
I have a tendency to read that as “fuck, right?”
not the french
En guarde
