............? I hate when people make a big deal about them words. .....let people say what they wanna say. Ain't nobody gonna call you fam anyways because u ain't all that??✋?
Lol I don't think it's the fact that people should not have any slang at all, it's more the fact that there's sooo much out there it's hard to keep up with what means what. Nobody's trying to impede on what you're saying, it's just hard to keep up!
Side note: I don't even know what lit means. Is that like smoking the good stuff or....?
My brother uses slang all the time. We are renovating our house and the other day I was showing him my dream plans. His response? "Yo that's so snatched, GOALS AF."
I literally had no idea what he meant. I was just like, sooooooo do you like it though...? ?
My niece always says everything is goals. I told her my oldest loved her baby sister.. She sent back a message that said "mom goals". I was like "yeah its a goal as a mother for her children to love each other."
Haha 'phone a friend'. ?☎️ I feel the need to do this multiple times a day with the kids I work with. I'm sure they get a kick out of my blank look when I just have no idea what they're talking about!!
Squad-your friends, fam-your family or close friends who are basically family, lit-drunk, stoned or just really cool (she was totally lit or that club is totally lit), savage-you're a beast. Having grown up in the eras of "rad, gnarly, bangin', peeps" I've come to the conclusion that slang is always questionable. I'm old as hell so I try to avoid using slang of any kind. I can make myself look idiotic without the help of questionable verbiage. Lol
To my knowledge, lit in reference to a person refers to intoxication while lit in reference to an event or place refers to coolness-it was poppin'. Lol
@Pookie, I love how you used "it was poppin'" to explain "lit" ???. If I had to guess, we are probably around the same age (based on your previous response)!
And @liltate yes it's like who wants to be a millionaire in my head lol I don't know if I've landed on my final answer and that's my only other option?

I think it's funny. My friends daughter called me savage for drinking wine out of the bottle and I was like what?

Pp, ? Did my post upset you? Like ocanbabe said there is so much to keep up with. Geeze its just a meme on the internet lol.

I am interested to know what lit, fam, and squad mean though?? Anyone that uses those care to help out?
Also, I don't think of savage as a new slang term. It's just a normal word that's been used for a long time.

@ariley you must be pretty young, am I right?

Fam is family and squad is like a close group of friends. My nieces and nephews use these daily.
deleted-user·
Thanks! So the obvious explanation? I thought it might have some special meaning.

Lol yep!!! My husband and I are old and lost?. When people use some of the new slang I have to work with context clues or phone a friend.

I had no idea what any of these meant until now. I had to look up fleek on Urban Dictionary and I'm still not sure what it means.
deleted-user·
That's still confusing, so was she stoned, cool or drunk? I'm I dinosaur apparently because the lit is more confusing now.

Squad- your close circle of friends
Fam- can literally say this to anyone bc fam
Lit- like hip pretty much like "it's gonna be lit af" vs "it's gonna be hip af" if you don't know what hip means then basically great too

I've had to google some of those to find out what they meant. ?
I'm old. ?
deleted-user·
I'm old, but I can tell the meaning of the words by their context.

Good for you.

@witch I guess it's good for you that you can use google.
