I was going to say I frequently don't know what the children are talking about and the most recent of these is like 2 years old.
Bet is about as literal as slang could get
Sus is 5 years old and is again short for a literal word.
The boomers really are dumber than any of us give them credit for.
the not-so-secret of American slang is that any "new" word was probably in use by black americans for at least a decade before it became "youth culture."
100% this. Heck, a lot of "queer slang" originates from the ballroom scene.
absolutely love stealing culture from Black people and acting like they invented it.
