Slang Terms You Hate?

[Mariah]

All of them. Just speak in proper English please.

 

[basilica]

i dont have a problem w/ slang as a whole because. it concisely conveys a point. like. thats so cool. and some slang expresses concepts that are otherwise impossible (or cumbersome) to explain otherwise—ie how could u say anything but fam in certain situations

i do hate watching/hearing aave being appropriated tho lol, especially when (white, but also a lot of 'hip' poc) use it inappropriately/incorrectly like...pls chill forever

basically if ur using aave to seem ~cool~ then its annoying loool

 

[PoizonMushro0m]

• Bae
• Fam
• Bish
• The use of the hashtag anywhere but Twitter
• Lit
• Faded
• I'm Weak

 

[Alienfish]

Lol, I mostly write bish because the actual word is censored here... I never thought of it as that trashy slang actually.

 

[f11]

90% of these words were fine before white people started overusing them wrongly

lol I was about to say this

The hell does this thread have to do with black people? It sounds stupid no matter who says it. That's why I don't really get the white people comments. I'm talking about the term, not who uses it.

 

[RainbowCherry]

I don't think this counts, but y'all. Eurgh. Also deez.

 

[Bubblebeam]

Wow, I feel very old. Half the words on this thread I've never even seen before.

because most of the terms people are saying here are aave terms (as in created by black people) which are constantly misused by people who aren't black, then everyone goes "omg that slang is so annoying!!" when it's been completely stripped of all meaning. lol

 

[uwuzumakii]

I've hated so many to where I just have given up trying to correct people. The ones I hate the most are:
-turnt
-selfie (I don't care if it's a real word now, I still hate it!)
-bae
-# (Again, I don't care that it's not slang, I still hate it.)
-yaaaaaas
-dope
-fleek
-every other slang word I can't think of

-sees an eyebrow- on fleek!!!! XDDD

 

[windloft]

'triggered', but only when people use it mockingly.
uhm.... 'butthurt' too. makes my stomach twist just thinking about it.

i use fam ironically, there's something about the word that amuses me. o:

 

[quietly-stuttered]

-YOLO
-bae
when someone literally hastags everything - ughghghghghh

 

[Llust]

- fam
- yas
- homie
- not necessarily slang, but typing like three of the same emoji in a row all the time

 

[BungoTheElf]

- fam
- I bet (idk if this counts as slang)

I mean I guess they're fine but when my classmates say them it makes me cringe lol

 

[Crash]

bae, fam, smh, yaaaaas, anything with a hashtag
also im not sure if this counts, but i hate those twitter posts or screenshots with the 100/water droplets/crying face emojis, they annoy me to no end​

 

[seliph]

Genuine question for those of you saying "Selfie": What do you call them?

I don't hate the word selfie, but I don't really use it either. I don't have another term for it though. I just say "picture of myself" when I actually do take one and show it somewhere.

 

[mintellect]

Words cannot describe how much I hate the word "bae."
I just... Cannot stand it.
"Selfie" is pretty annoying too.
All other slang I can handle as long as you don't use it excessively.

Also not really slang but overuse of emoji especially the common ones like ��.

Come on, give �� Some love.
