    As a millenial, yeet is still the greatest new word ever added, and why I personally will never be against the new generations choice of words. Fuckin Rizz is starting to appeal to me too

        Especially with how you pronounce yeet, I cannot think of another English word that is as fun to say

      My problem is, right about when a word starts to appeal to me and I’m like “oookayy I’ll start saying it,” it’s way too late.

      I guess I could balance it by always appending a Dude-like “…in the parlance of our times…”

        That’s the thing. Once it starts appealing to you, it loses value to the original group.

        It’s one of my favorite ways to fuck with my nephews and nieces.

            Precisely. Another fun subtle thing to do is add “the” to the term. Gives it an extra sense of dismissiveness. It ain’t “TikTok”, it’s “the TikTok.”

            Or better yet, “the tikkity tok.”

        Thats why I just start saying words Ironically immediately and then get infected into using them unironically

          This was me in high school. I even listened to boy bands ironically and then noticed I was singing them unironically.

      Yeah once I learned Rizz is just charisma I wasn’t so mad

        I mean its just a shortened form of Charisma. Cha sounds weird, and Risma sounds like the set up for a “MUH BAWLZ” Joke

          We say CHA in my D&D group when talking about the stat, but I’m gonna start saying rizz at the table and see how people react.

          Could just say charisma. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

              Sure, but what the hell happens to charismatic in this situation? Does that get shortened too, so now we’ve got people saying “Yo Zendaya is totally rizzmatic!”. Or does everyone just need to re-arrange all sentences that would use charismatic so that only the noun form gets used and we avoid ever having to use it as an adjective?

                I mean, Rizzmatic sounds awesome, I’m down to hear that variation. Language is constantly in flux. It has never stayed static. Multiple variations of 1 word just means you get to pick which one you like best

            I mean, I cant confirm directly where it originated from. But it’s used in the exact same way charisma is, and means basically the same thing
