Whenever if feel uncool for being old I just remember that I wasn’t cool when I was younger either, so I’ve lost nothing.

    Paradoxically once you get to middle age, the other middle-aged people think you're uncool if you do know slang from younger generations.

    It's annoying because I can't help picking it up.

    I thought “yeet” meant “throw”, but now apparently it means “yes”?

    If you aren’t a teenager, that’s the point.

    it still means throw but it is also phonetically close to saying "ye" (as in enthusiastically saying yes with a long 'e' but not finishing the word) so people use it as such

    Where I live, the new thing is that THE YOUTH arbitrarily mix in english with our native language. But I've been doing that for 20 years already.

    Still sounds dumb though.

    And that's why, as someone with mild chronophobia, I check Rural Dictionary regularly.

    I have this paranoid delusion that if I don't know the newest slang that I am going to be in a bad\deadly situation that I could have avoided if I had known the slang. So I stay on top of it and use the ones I like the most.
