Even the commenter trying to be worse failed

You weirdly got it right.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago

At least yours is legitimate slang. The comic is just a bunch of buzzwords in regular sentences.

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago

At the very least they're used correctly, the author seems to know what those words mean at least.

[-] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

I thought I had a stroke.

[-] jettrscga@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

What's a bop? I can't tell if that's actual slang or one of the joke ones like WIFI.

[-] doctordevice@lemm.ee 12 points 9 months ago

Pretty sure they mean a song (alternatively, "bopper"). Specifically an upbeat one that makes you want to dance.

The context of Limewire points to this too.

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Yup, exactly

Come on, Hashtag, geotag your retweeeted stream from the app in the cloud. All the cool kids are doing it.

[-] TheGreenGolem@lemm.ee 6 points 9 months ago

Oh god, it's happening to me
I genuinely don't understand half the words in this comment
Is this what turning 30 feels like?

[-] Canadian_Cabinet@lemmy.ca 4 points 9 months ago

Man I'm 23 and don't even know if this is English. Help.

[-] KevonLooney@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

Smash that like button my rizzy. Bet.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 14 points 9 months ago

"Have you streamed this yet?" Is a phrase I've heard real people say when talking directly to a streamer.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 11 points 9 months ago

I need to know the context of this image.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 17 points 9 months ago

Farthest back example I could find is this. Apparently it's from a textbook?

[-] Kolrami@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

I found this sociology textbook that has unquoted similar text. https://online.flipbuilder.com/jeru/zjef/index.html#p=60

I think one book plagiarized the other.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Or it could be a different edition. Is the image supposed to convey that kids use slang? And is that supposed to be some sort of revelation?

[-] Kolrami@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

More reasonable and more likely explanation. I wonder if they got rid of the image or added it in a new edition.

[-] Stern@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

have you skibbidied that fanum tax with your rizz?

[-] spudwart@spudwart.com 4 points 9 months ago

How the "smart sciency computer people" in 90's comics and 2000's cartoons talk.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago

When I was younger I'd just ramble off a bunch of computer part names and people thought I was the smartest computer nerd in the world. I was like, these are just the parts that make up your computer, dummies.

[-] Fave@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

Honestly sounds a bit like my management :D

[-] Fleur__@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Why can I understand all this

[-] Erika2rsis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago

This is basically just Skwerl but for "young people who are good with computers" slang
