My friends will continue to intentionally and enthusiastically mis-use all the kid-pidgin as a form of sarcastic performance art, as it has so far achieved the main goal of embarrassing their two girls into never using any of it. They speak like people, instead of vapid 'gram zombies; at least at home.
Speak to your kids like little adults and their speech and vocabulary explodes. They also sense the respect that many adults don’t give them. I loathe adults that talk down to children.
My friend has a toddler and I always spoke to her like a regular person who just happened to not know things. She seemed to respect it a lot.
Other terms that made the shortlist of finalists for this year’s Word of the Year included “agnetic,”
Surely they mean “agentic”, right? Right???
I searched for “agnetic” to see if I was out of the loop and it’s kind of funny, kind of sad. I found a lot of what I guess is AI slop that took a typo and just ran with it. Like this one: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/clash-intelligences-agnetic-ai-vs-agent-explained-robin-biwre
Agnetic AI is a newer conceptual framework that extends beyond the traditional agent-based model. The term “Agnetic” is derived from the word “magnetic,” signifying its dynamic, adaptive nature.
https://www.agnetic.ai/ also looks like slop, but it’s realllllly hard to distinguish between AI bullshit and traditional tech marketing bullshit.
Traditional tech marketing bullshit is also slop. It just isn’t always AI slop.
“Slop” ought to be another word that’s gained popularity in use. I’m still having trouble with it, mainly because I think it’s overused a lot in short insults and dismissals of things. Not aimed at you here, at least you define WHY you consider it in that category. I’m talking more the “AI slop” that mirrors the “fake news” or “git gud” or any other reply that avoids actual discussion and screams “I hate this, but have nothing more to contribute”.
I tough it was “where are the epstein files”
Isn’t “6 7” supposed to be a rating? Somebody does something and you rate it mid by giving it a 6 or maybe a 7 on a scale of 10. Why on earth would this semantic meaning come from a basketball player’s height?
Do your joints hurt when you get out of bed in the morning?
Yes, but that’s got nothing to do with it 🤣
My joint pain started when I was a teenager and has just gotten worse now that I’m 35. Though apparently my brain is perpetually 12 because I pick up this new slang very quickly. Much to the annoyance of my teenage son and the amusement of my 5 year old twins.
Ha ha ha ad-hominem slurs are so cool.~
Is it tough living life without a sense of humor?
I literally only heard of it last week. Was it really that big of a trend to be considered the word of the year?
Yes. Old people just lag on these things.
I’m middle-aged with small children. Only heard of this a few days ago.
Only middle agers think middle age isn’t old. I don’t make the rules.
Only young people think middle age is old. I figure I’ve got another 20 until I really start falling apart.
And late to the lingo, nonetheless, darn skibidi.
Even the kids that say it don’t even take it that seriously and are 100% aware that it is just brainrot, at least from what I have seen. Although, I do still enjoy saying “sixty seven” to my nephew whenever it comes up.
Yep. My little kids were giggling over skibidi last year. It’s fun because it’s nonsensical. Kid’s love shit like that.
A number?
6 7, not 67
some say it can be interpreted as another way of saying “so-so,” “maybe this” or “maybe that,” the dictionary states.
pronounced “six-seven” and never “sixty-seven,” the dictionary notes
