Have you guys noticed how so many ppl, esp GenX and Y, Z today use the expression/pre supposition
"i'm like"
for example "i was like, so upset about her doing this/that blah blah blah" and "im like, whatever blah blah blah"
this is fucking annoying or do ppl think it cool to speak this way/? fuckign retards
\
speak proper fucking english, dont copy fucking stupid american hollywood actors/TV/movies and the way they talk
-
This sad trend isn't only going on in the US, over here in Europe as well :-\
-
exactly
why do non americans think its cool to parrot/copy american actors/hollywood/TV?
do they think by speaking like this they will be multi millionaire celebrities?
-
This stupid way of "speaking" has been around for many years. The terms, "I'm like..." and "I'm all..." are enough to make a genuine adult with a high school diploma from the 70s sick.
People are ignorant and growing more so each day. Between this and that ignorant brand of ghetto talk that so permeates society like a diseased zeitgeist it is easy to see that what has happened "overnight" is World War Stupid.
;D
-
Youngsters seek for their identities, and the media provides them 'cool' role models in all flavors. This phenomenon is already going on for over 50 years... Elvis, Beatles, Stones, Marlon Brando, Marilyn Monroe, etc were the first ones.
-
The "like" phenomenon is definitely new, I find its teen girls who say it the most.
I blame those Kardashians.
-
If everyone around you speaks one way and with the same accent, how long before your mind picks up on it and unconsciously follows suit?
-
I am totally outraged about young people doing stuff and things! They are getting all up in my face with their portable Victrola telephonic units and saying stuff I don't understand and they took Walter Cronkite off to make room for "youtube" and that other guy and they even don't properly utilize the language!
We were never like that when I was a teenager! Sure we had rock'n'roll but that was good music and totally non-controversial. The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, stuff like that. Awesome stuff.
Where's my mild farina dangnabbit? Matlock is about to start.
I do agree that most young kids speak horribly.
-
I'm like, hater thread of peace.

great role models for the young women of today ::)

Here's a thing. Over the past 10 years I've taken my kids to Disneyland in Orlando a couple of times. Last year I noticed that all the guys who work in clothes shops had started talking with gay lisping tones. It wasn't like this 10 years ago. A lot of the waiters were speaking like this too. Mincing, gay hand movements and sounding like Julian Clary. Walking about with their buttocks clenched, legs only moving from knees down, wrists at 90 degrees. When the hell did this start. Thankfully it hasn't spread to Scotland yet.
Has everyone under 25 become gay in Florida or is it some sort of fashion thing? ???
-
I call everybody "cuz" :)
-
I also hate the use of "jump the shark", "on point" and "get my swag on".

I wrote a chapter in my book and a few articles about the degeneration of the spoken as well as written language. It is very sad

When people say "jel" instead of jelous.
They deserve a punch to the throat.
-

Or "jelly"......."U jelly brah?"
-
I also can't stand "know what I'm sayin" and "that's how we do".
-
Or "jelly"......."U jelly brah?"
yes that aswell.
Brah is also another bad one, makes me think of the homos at bb.com
-
I also hate "gonna get my [blank] on", "that's my jam" and "whatever".
-
I'm from South Texas so I also hate when Mexicans refer to their kids as "Mom" and "Dad".
I also loathe when women use "papi"...."aye papi".
-
I also hate when people say "I got mad love" or "I got mad respect" for a person or situation.

Proper English
-
ebonics... creating false idols in music film and sports that talk ebonics and kids emulate them trying to be cool, valley girl, texting etc
we will be speaking a whole other language soon enough..then, today's kids will become adults and what nobody will be albe to read and understand old stuff. .much like we cannot read dead languages let alone comprehend what was left behind
-
In the weightroom I want to tear my own face off when people say "add a nickel", "add a dime" or "add a quarter".
This reminds me of my hatred for the expressions "gotta get that paper", "make that green", "Benjamins" and "dead presidents"
-
You listen to recordings or read books and you realize that english language is undergoing a major transformation. Same things happens all over the world.
-
I also hate the use of "jump the shark", "on point" and "get my swag on".
I really hate "jump the shark" and "on point".
-
I really hate "swag" and "swagger" too.
-
I hate it when people say "let me ax you" and phrases like "he dead" and "she trippin'" or saying "look" constantly. The same applies to people who use "fuck" and "shit" (and their derivatives) every other word while trying to say something simple.

lol, that's black talk
avoid blacks and you won't have to hear such phrases
-

Yes, "ghetto slang", ebonics and hip hop lingo drives me insane.
-

The "fuck" and "shit" part applies to many types of people.
"Duh" and "hellooooo?" are also very annoying, as is the "aLt cApS" method of writing, the removal of vowels (maybe from the days of keeping text messages short) and the use of the word "imma".
Voice tone also plays a big role. You can hear a lot of young people today having this rude, vulgar and aggressive tone, trying to emulate the trash they see and hear on tv.
-
"could care less" ??? ??? ???
It's "couldn't care less" all you fuckin imbeciles.
As in , it is not possible for me to care less about whatever you are telling me.
And when did Awesome become the adjective of choice for everything?
-
We can we argue about all kinds of cliche phrases, but what makes me really angry is the use of deceases. The use of "cancer" is pretty common here, I hear it everywhere :-\

Yes, the dangers of media, feeding the young people of today with Ebonics and similar damaging behaviors.
Always a problem putting white and black people together
Nothing more Migraine-inducing hearing Ghettopeople talk, they can't have a proper discussion
-
My favorite low IQ phrases I often hear are;
"My bad" in place of excuse me, or pardon me.
"No problem" in place of you're welcome.

This thread really jumped the shark. Wish it would stay on point. Whatever papi, I'm just gonna do what I do and make that green, but first I'm gonna try and up my bench...probably add a dime to it.
-
I also hate the terms "dimepiece" and "gat".
-
I don't like it when folks say "ATM machine".
-

I blame those Kardashians.
The Hierarchy was pushing that kind of talk in the 80's in the Valley California...They made a movie out of it in the hopes that teenage girls would start talking like that and get further away from proper English...
-

I admit, I'm guilty of both. :-[
-
I also hate people that aren't white.
I'm kidding, I'm kidding! Just seein who might catch this LOL.
-
I also hate the mexican expression "nalgas" or "nalgitas".
-
I hate 'hater'
-
I hate 'hater'
Or "haterade"
I'm also loathe to my core "hate the game, not the playa".
-
Or "haterade"
I'm also loathe to my core "hate the game, not the playa".
Sounds similar to "hate the sin, not the sinner" (or "sinna") ;)
-
I hate people who says "a" instead of "er", like changing Player to Playa, Sinner to Sinna, Brother to Brotha etc
Mostly chimp-tendencies, but even more annoying when others follow suite due to watching too many movies/TV
-
Sounds similar to "hate the sin, not the sinner" (or "sinna") ;)
Exactly. I've also heard "hate the sin, love the sinner".
I also hate when "urban youth" refer to their underwear as "Huggies".
-
That reminds me, I also hate "baby mama" and "baby daddy". And if you're gonna adopt some stupid ghetto phrase at least keep the stupidity consistent. Why not "baby papa" instead?
-
I also hate when "urban youth" refer to their underwear as "Huggies".
Haha, never heard that before...
Maybe it's because of the way they dress they look like they're wearing diapers.

-
anabol's latest thread reminded me that I also hate "baller" and "shot caller".
-
I also despise when people say they're hungry and wanna go "nosh".
-
I seriously hope most of you guys are just trolling/having fun/whatever. Language, spoken and written, is ALWAYS changing. It's no different these days than in years past except that these days, I would argue, all these mini-dialects are EASIER to understand for the average person (because of media access).
If you want to complain about something, complain about people being unable or unwilling to "code-switch" when in the presence of folks who don't understand the idiomatic way they express themselves. Railing on about the slang you don't like just makes ya look like 'tards, IMO. Ya feel me?
-
No, I don't "feel you". >:(
Don't need you to "keep it real" for us "brah". >:(
:D
-
Or "haterade"
I'm also loathe to my core "hate the game, not the playa".
LOL, those are indeed hilarious ones :D
I believe we can add 99.99% of the content of 'The urban dictionary' to this thread... :-\
-

I'm kidding, I'm kidding! Just seein who might catch this LOL.

"Bomb," "chill," and "wifey." Enough with this shit.

Freakin valley girls.

"Bomb," "chill," and "wifey." Enough with this shit.
black people always had a peculiar vocabulary
but white people using it is shameful and obscene

"Wifey"
Judy Blume, 1970
nothing new under the sun

There is nothing wrong with hating something worth despising. Stupidity is that and more. The systematic destruction of the English language is epidemic and all because of stupid, ignorant faux hip/chill/urban(e) morons.
Stupidity knows no color. In fact, stupidity knows nothing and all because they be keepin' it reeeeeal.
Yup. Real stupid.

This.
I still can't stand it. The whole "like" and "you know" every other sentence.
Also, I hate when someone is telling a story which includes statements made by other people.
They'll say, "He goes...", or "She goes..."
It's he said, or it's she said, jackass. ::)

I would imagine the slang epidemic is much worse in the states.
Inner-city Canadian whites don't fall prey to this type of bullshit, only brown turds and nig-nogs talk like lobotomized bags of smashed assholes.
Rural Canadian whites have their own accents, a very goofy one.
-
Not only Hollywood, but "its like" the Valley Girls from the 60s/70s. Not really a new trend in talking. It has just cycled back around.

I'd agree. Most people I come across speak English correctly. It's been my experience also that most people who speak using slang are generally of low intelligence.

Anyway, gonna get my swag on

Video has over 100 000 views.
She has over one million views on her comedy piece "Gamer problems".
Imagine how many fans she is influencing to talk like her.

No such thing as ebonics...
modern day slang..from hip-hop can trance it's roots back to Jazz artists...use of the word "cats" for "dudes", and the use of "cool", "smooth", "bad", all meaning the opposite of their "correct" meaning.
-
That reminds me: helluva

But this "a" instead of "er"-thing. African Americans don't say "fellas" right? Isn't that Italians?
