Well I don’t wanna spread only negativity asking people avout what they dislike. What words do you find funny.

Personally I like zesty, edging and the ‘are they stupid?’

SK what internet lingo do you like?

    Groovy is a personal favorite of mine. Every time I say it, it brings me just a little bit of joy.

    I’m a big fan of -ussy as a suffix, especially when it’s wildly unsuitable for the purpose

    It’s utterly ruined ales describing themselves as “citrussy”

      To be honest, “citrussy” just means “We’re not very good at making beer yet so we just chucked hops at it until it was drinkable and called it craft”

    I like the word “yeet”. It gives me this mental image of someone chucking out something without any regard or care, like for example: “Even if we yeet the implications of such a statement out of the way, it still is not a good statement to come from the mouth of a head of state in such a meeting.” Or: “Don’t just yeet your clothes after taking them off, the hamper is there for a reason!” Or even: “Someone yote their banana peel and this guy slipped on it.”

        “Yeeted” before words that start with a vowel or an “h”.

        “Yote” before words that start with everything else.

        I prefer “yote”, but I wasn’t even thinking it’s the past tense, funny enough. I think what I had in mind earlier is “yote = had yeeted” but upon thinking more about it, it doesn’t make any sense.

        “Yeeted” seems to be becoming more common than “yote” tho, but it isn’t too bad.

        Oh, yeah!!

        We can say “Yoink that thing and yeet it out of here,” and even if the person doesn’t know what ‘yoink’ nor ‘yeet’ is, they can probably guess what you want them to do just from the sound “feels” alone.

    Ever since I heard of skibidi toilet, I like calling everything a skibidi something. Go put your skibidi bike in the garage. My kids hate it.

      Not sure if it’s still the case but when it first came out, it was really obvious they used an automated process for generating the subtitles and didn’t bother to check their work. The part where Rebecca calls David a stupid gonk gets subbed as a derogatory word.

    “based”, because it’s based. I feel a sort of badassery when I hear the way it’s pronounced

        In this context, it means praiseworthy. If a person describes something as based, they are commending that thing; however, it is also commonly used in an ironic way. People will praise something that shouldn’t be praised in situations where it would be humorous.

          I thought it had more of a ‘doing your own thing’ vibe to it. As in, you could use it to describe someone spending a vast amount of time perfecting an unusual skill.

      I wish I liked “based” but more often than not when I hear it on the internet it’s because someone said a slur or something bigoted.

    “Cooked” was part of my (and the rest of my country’s) vocabulary for decades before it became a zoomer meme thing, does that count
