Roflcopter, what an epic fail! The speech patterns of other generations are so not tubular or radical! Unlike my generation holds up spork we're too random to to be lame!
Story time! When I was in high school (~1998/99) a group of kids decided to start a “gang.” I went to a small Baptist school. Kids were bored. This was maybe second period. They called their gang the “Yo’s.” Saying “Yo” was pretty much the extent of their gang. By lunchtime a group of us got annoyed and decided to start a rival gang called the “No’s.” The Bloods to the Yo’s Crips. The sign you were a No was you grabbed a brown paper towel from the bathroom and wore it hanging from your back pocket.
Anyway, just before dismissal everyone was called into an assembly and given a lecture on gangs and told that anyone wearing a brown paper towel would receive a detention. I am still amused at how seriously our administration took this obviously stupid and juvenile joke.
Ohio being on the list is pretty funny (assuming this is in the US). Going to make geography and history classes awkward.
What grade is this, that Edging and Goon were common enough terms that they had to be included here?
"Animal noises" is very broad. Furry persecution. :(
The fact that they lose "LiveSchool points", whatever those are, presumably for saying these words, is almost worse than the fact that they have this list at all. I don't know what that system is or how it works, but I already hate it.
There was a shirt, it was Mario + Mushroom = Big Mario. Our administration thought this was a drug reference. Some nerdy kid would wear the shirt and about half way through the day they would be wearing it inside out.
Chat, we are so cooked. Diddy hit me with stage 5 LIGMA in Ohio.🥀 I tried to tell the huzz, but I had massive beta energy 🪫🥶 and just stood there like goofy ahh broke boy NPC.🧍No mames! 😫
I for one support the educational system refusing to address O*io. Every year people are subjected to delicious and sinful delicacies like Da*ton style pizza, Cincin*ati chili, and *uckeyes. Remember, only you can forget about o*io
I had a music teacher in the 90s once have a breakdown and scream, "I don't want to hear shit, fuck, or blowjob one more time" and then run out of the room. The kids are okay.
Sorry but "any combination of 'tuah' and 'hawk'" has me fucking rolling. Since every now and then my mom and I will do that exact thing spontaneously while talking.
Like she'll be talking about Cactuar and my brain will be like "Cactuah"
If that list was made in my generation it wouldn't be in English.
But also it wouldn't be made in my generation because what the hell do you mean "banned words"? We would have set that trash on fire and gone on strike.
Things I remember people complaining about at various times (I don't really recall gradeschool having any)
overuse (or use at all) of dude
doy
[no] duh
dweeb
overuse of awesome
various "surfer" slang (we all saw the TMNT movie)
at some point, maybe around high school, "my bad" became a thing. I still don't really like the phrase much.
I'm sure there are more locked somewhere in the recesses of my brain, but those are the ones that jump to mind. The internet was only really becoming a thing when I was in highschool and I lived in a very rural area for most of it so things spread much more slowly.
