Rizz = chaRISma

Use it the way your parents would use "game".

[-] EvilHankVenture@lemmy.world 63 points 2 years ago

Use it the way your parents would use "game".

Ok so it's like this::

Did you win the rizz?

This meat is a little rizzy.

Don't play rizzes with me.

[-] Kase@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

Yup, you got it!! 😁🤭

[-] Annoyed_Crabby 10 points 2 years ago

Zelda Breath of the Wild is a very unique videorizz

I saw this elsewhere, but the term rizz does imply the existence of other words to shorten all the typical rpg attributes.

Unsure what they would all be, but I'm thinking these other four seem pretty easy to agree upon:

Toosh = constitution

Tren = strength

Teri = dexterity

Telli = intelligence

Ah. It's a lot more tolerable knowing that. Now what about "drip"?

[-] SasquatchBanana@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

Drip refers to how someone dresses. Someone who is drippy has a lot of style.

Also, this has been in circulation for a few years now.

It's just an abbreviation of charisma.

Long ago, I had had an idea of an rpg where you play as an introvert with sever anxiety. Each dialogue is a fight.

New style learned : young talk.

Effects in dialogue : cause cringe status effect to surrounding characters if they are young adults or younger, otherwise cause confusion.

[-] AcidOctopus@lemmy.ml 19 points 2 years ago

Disco Elysium is sorrrrta like that, if you squint a bit.

Not focused around being an introvert or different dialogue styles exactly, but you're a mess of a human being and conversations can literally hurt you, as it tracks your mental health as well as physical.

You should try it if you haven't already.

It also does damage to you as the person sitting in front of the screen whenever you disappoint Kim!

Every generation does this. The boomers had their fair share of dumb slang terms as well but for some reason everyone loves to hate the next generation for doing the exact same thing.

[-] HipHoboHarold@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago

I remember being young and referring to things da bomb. Or something cool could also be fly. People would refer to themselves as home skillet. Booyah.

"cool" though, "cool" never dies

[-] HiddenLayer5@lemmy.ml 16 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Honestly this is just the process of language evolving. Some slang words are born and fade into obsecurity once the novelty wears off, others get used so much that they become part of the language for ages to come. Some even become formal terms given enough time.

Rizz is a shortened word for 'charisma' and specifically for skill in charming or seducing a potential romantic partner, especially through verbal communication.

[-] progettarsi@feddit.it 18 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I used to be with "it," then they went and changed what was "it." Now what used to be "it" is lame, and what is "it" is new and scary. And it will happen to you too!!!!

[-] XbSuper@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago

Rizz was the final straw for me. I no longer have any interest in attempting to understand today's youth.

They just need to shut up and get off my lawn.

[-] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

The first time I yelled at young people to get off the grass was oddly freeing.

I now fully embrace the grump.

Floating toilet heads flirt as a method of stealing your food, which only happens in Ohio as thats where a lot of cryptids are supposed to come from, and also have voluptuous posteriors, an ultra-capitalist competitive outlook, and I am so confident this is the truth I will mock your relative performance to mine as inadequate and, finally, a dog joins in as a non sequitur because humans are doing it and using synecdoche I am implying you are also just a sheep.

You can call me Baby Gronk Rizz King, Livvy Just Rizzed Him Up

I am fucking 40 years old by the way.

Rizz at least makes some sense as a shortened version of charisma.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 years ago

I knew it was my time to join the old group when "slaps" became popular.

[-] Okkai@lemm.ee 12 points 2 years ago

Is "slaps" still popular though? I remember that from around 2010 and have not heard it recently.

[-] Da_Boom@iusearchlinux.fyi 10 points 2 years ago

Idk, in my mind it still slaps

It's short for charisma and you use it if you have none.
