The only way to stay on top of the new shit is to heavily use tiktok. As soon as tiktok became the main thing I completely fell off the meme culture since I won't use tiktok

[-] AngryHumanoid@reddthat.com 63 points 10 months ago

Embrace getting old and intentionally using out of date slang incorrectly. It's totally on fleek.

[-] winky9827b@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

Where I come from, that's not a very tight thing to say.

[-] Deuces@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

It seems pretty cash money of you

[-] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 months ago

Those yeets were totally fam, lit.

[-] LeafOnTheWind@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Well you're obviously streets behind.

[-] Cuttlersan@beehaw.org 10 points 10 months ago

Agreed, and same here! Have to assume I’m not missing out on much lol

[-] Slowy@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Same, once it falls out of favour I will hopefully get back into those fresh memes, but I just won’t use/be that particular product

[-] AZERTY@feddit.nl 4 points 10 months ago

Apparently Josh Hutcherson posing is a meme and I was confused by my zoomer buddy sending me random gifs of him.

Sometimes it's best to wait a while to see if the fad can survive wider culture. Remember:

  • fidget spinners,
  • what does the fox say
  • ice bucket challenge
  • flossing,
  • harlem shake,
  • planking,
  • what colour is the dress?
  • pwned

Neither does anyone else.

Dota 2, babyyyy.

[-] GrapesOfAss@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

I mean, the Ice Bucket challenge wasn't supposed to be a long term, it raised quite a lot of money

This is bananas.

Also why did they focus the story on the son-in-law that way, instead of talking about the murder victim? The murder victim whose mother owned that dress? If you're going to force that connection, the verbiage would be much easier to deal with talking about the victim, her mother, and her husband the alleged murderer.

[-] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 6 points 10 months ago

I remember all of those except planking, unless you mean the exercise.

[-] interolivary@beehaw.org 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Yeah it's like that but dumber.

Heh, and of course there's a Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planking_(fad)

[-] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Oh, huh, I've seen that done at my high school, just didn't remember the name. Guy was balancing off the edge of a couch in one of those "time is frozen" videos.

[-] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 3 points 10 months ago

Pepperidge Farm remembers

[-] MonkderZweite@feddit.ch 16 points 10 months ago

I've reached the age where I just wait to see if they go away.

This is called wisdom.

[-] Pandantic@midwest.social 14 points 10 months ago

I just had a student say “I don’t think anyone actually likes skibidi toilet, but some people just keep saying it!”

I just gave a slow nod.

Just some absurdist humor. Anyone remember kingdom hearts stupid files? This feels similar to that kind of 1am loopy humor.

We're all just reaping what we've sown throughout the early days of the internets.

[-] HubertManne@kbin.social 4 points 10 months ago

[-] taiyang@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I'm down for a good gyat. Everyone deserves a good booty slang.

[-] it_is_soup_time@techhub.social 4 points 10 months ago

@The_Picard_Maneuver I feel like I keep waking up to new mysterious acronyms that are suddenly widely used. I had a field day trying to figure out what FWIW meant once it showed up.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 10 months ago

isn't "FWIW" like decades old though, grampa?

[-] l0st_scr1b3@beehaw.org 2 points 9 months ago

First of all skibidi toilet is amazing art.

[-] FunkyMonk@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago

[-] DeepFriedDresden@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago

You're right, I read the headline too fast. Updated my comment.
