It took me a while to realize this wasn’t a lookup table
Me too. Felt old before realizing it wasn’t a lookup table and then felt older after realizing it was a simple list.
I hate finna more than all the others.
it’s AAVE, not made up, and there’s literally no reason why “gonna” should be more legit. it’s the exact same construction.
I mean it’s as made up as any other slang
why do i never hear someone bitch about “gonna” then
Because “gonna” is centuries old, while “finna” only started getting popular around 2010.
Not exactly an apples to apples comparison, ‘younger’ slang is always going to be less ‘familiar’/‘normal’-sounding.
start listing them out continuously untill you get expelled
It’s such a bizarre list too.
They’re not cusses. What’s wrong with “love that for you”? I could’ve easily seen myself saying that in 2009, is the meaning vastly different than what I think?
It’s passive aggressive
Spent my whole High School career being passive aggressive, because swearing was the bridge too far.
If you can’t even be passive aggressive you may as well never leave your front door.
How is being upfront about your feelings, worse than hiding them with snide comments? Passive aggression is a tool for funny people and people who are afraid of confrontation.
