Are they really defining one slang term using two other slang terms?

As a 40-something, I'm really enjoying watching younger Millennials struggle with Gen Z culture. The wheel keeps turning.

This isn't a gen z thing specifically, but every time someone says "touching grass" I hear "touching fabric." It's like everyone has become really into to the idea of shitting their pants. Did you know shitting your pants every day is good for your mental health?

Some of these definitions are hilarious. Someone who didn't know what "Bussy" meant could read the entry for it here, and still be just as confused.

My favorite is "facts": literally the dictionary definition of facts

Popularized in 2017

How could those silly old folks be expected to know what 'facts' means? It wasn't popularized until 2017!

Also the use of "period" as an interjection, which according to the list was invented in 2010 and has not been in use in some form since the 3rd century BCE.
