Slurs aside,
- blazed (meaning stoned, as in “420 blaze it”)
- pwn
- lamer
- lamesauce
- g2g
- rofl (I find it really interesting that lol and lmao stood the test of time but rofl fell into obscurity…too over-the-top, maybe?)
- brah (as in bro)
- rekt
- noice (as in nice)
- gangsta (as in “that’s so gangsta”)
- ghetto (specifically when meaning scuffed or jury-rigged)
- ratchet
- (a specific term equivalent to cross-faded that I cannot for the life of me remember)
- Macarena
- (A)IM ((AOL) instant message)
- Gchat
- Pogs (not as in PogChamp but as in these guys)
- Toonami
- Psych!/sike!
- Jinx (personal jinx ten! Nice try)
and probably a bunch more dated slang which I’ve memory-holed
I feel like brah has increased if anything. Or maybe Im combining it with bruh.
Toonami
Remains my guiding light for all of my creative endeavors. My primary ambition is to make something that would make it on Toonami. Something my younger self would dig. I just want TOM to do some ice cold voice-over promo on my work. That’s what I want my c/gamedev projects to be. Toonami worthy.
jury-rigged
Jerry-rigged actually, and apparently this phrase predates the term “Jerry” used for Germans by a century so no relation
Depends, is ghetto meaning poorly built or shoddy (jerry rigged)? Or is it meaning effectively, even stylishly, Improvised from on hand materials (jury rigged)
Ive seen both definitions used.
