I am almost 28 and use way more gen z/alpha slang than my 21 year old sister does. It becomes your permanent lexicon after a while and you keep using the words no matter how outdated they are. I say yeet at least once a day still.
Unironically started saying hella after life is strange made me cringe out of my fucking seat when the characters say it.
Reclaim it like slurs. Lmfao
The new thing is "what the helly"
I have been saying "groovy" for as long as I have been aware that the word existed, and that's early 70s
Far out.
Right on!

I say hella every day. Slang accentuates speech and makes it fun, so I use a lot of it. Not an obnoxious amount, though. Gotta get the slang amount just right, just like swearing. It's an art.
I don't use skibidi because it's too long to easily work into sentences casually. Also it's a really fucking dumb word that feels wrong saying. Like I tried it a few times and cringed so hard I thought I was gonna flip inside out or some shit. My soul started leaving my body.
Lol that's hella awesome
