Forgot to say no cap, on god

Its definitely fellow kids material but its not far off as of a few years ago. I’d say that hit the mark hard enough that its actually funny
Can someone translate this into emojis?

That’s hilarious. I love it
Accurate, but cringe

So, accurate.
It would have to be cringe to be accurate
No cap
When the campground texts you back with a green bubble
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.
mossy liked “Apple, in an attempt to leverage social pressure to drive sales instead of actually providing…”
It also fucks with the quality of videos to the point where they are unwatchable if you have an android

That second sign has big “hello fellow children” vibes.
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”
The translation is accurate and commendable
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”
I wouldn’t know. Because I am old and I feel it right now.
I think it’s warning us about snakes that can kill? I don’t know…
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!
Was watching Point Break again the other day and the desire to speak like a 90s surfer dude is kinda overwhelming, compadre.
You’re a radical cat daddyo
I have, on occasion, stuck out my gyat for the daddyo
You’ve just ruined the Irish classic “whiskey in the jar” for me, thanks.
Untubular dude. Untubular.
Look at this fuckin drip god over here
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’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.
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 dont get it either, no cap
Fr fr ong
Your slang is bussing, fellow skibidi!
Str8 rizz.
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’s kind of recursive? It tells me to report the cringe.
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
I hate that this feels natural, and I wasn’t even speaking English in 2008
I feel like ChatGPT pulled this right out of 1999.
I have reached the age where I find gags like this - and the massive cringe effect they inflict on young folks - fucking hilarious.
i’m comfortable with my fate. who ever really needed hair on their head anyway?
I admit, the idea of a teenager being highly annoyed by that sign amuses me greatly.
The thing is, all of the grammar is correct so it’s not actually that cringe. They definitely did their research!
Translated for gen alpha:

Are you saying that Gen alpha knows who zyzz is? As a millennial that makes me so happy. We’re all gonna make it brah.
Fellow millennial here. Dis white boy don’t got a clue.
I replied to the right comment this time. Finally got a clue.
no. zyzz was niche for millennials.
Groovy!
Wassup playa!
okay but that conveys no information whatsoever.
I’m like 70% sure they just make up words and infer meaning from tone.

Edit: Ignore this. I replied to the wrong comment. Told you I don’t got a clue.
(it’s a copypasta)
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.
I’d much rather people text than phone me, it’s like a primative ticketing system
Exactly. I can triage everything.
