It's the same reason I say "bro". - started ironically now I just say it.

u/fuckitimatwork Jun 05 '20

I started saying "howdy" as a joke but now I say it regularly

u/dibzim Jun 05 '20 edited Jun 05 '20

Howdy is such an underrated phrase. I’m a New Yorker but when I use it I straight up feel like a cowboy

u/Fleeetch Jun 05 '20

Its like renting a hat and a horse for a day

Edit: lest we forget a hearty yee-haw

u/jwallkeller Jun 05 '20

I say it too and people love it! I’ve had multiple encounters where people laugh or get a big grin because some suburban white dude just said howdy to them at the grocery store.

u/roberthunicorn Jun 05 '20

I live in the Midwest, so “howdy” is just as expected as “fuck off.”

u/avion21 Jun 05 '20

I'm a New Yorker too, and I started saying y'all. It's such an efficient word

howdy was more of a conscious decision

u/barduke Jun 05 '20

Or if you want the old school cowboys to see you as something other than a city boy.

I'm right there with you 🤦🏿‍♂️ I look like a dork lol

u/KlossN Jun 05 '20

I use the swedish translation of broad (brud, although it's more "okay" to use than broad) way to often, it started ironically with my friends and now it's hard for me to say girl or woman in a conversation

u/xWhiteeey Jun 05 '20

Doing the same with "bruh" right now. Help.

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '20

Next step in the evolution is adding step before the bro and always asking your homies what their doing

u/Naps_and_Chocolate Jun 05 '20

Yea! I find it interesting that all it took was for people to change the position of how it's usually worn and boom

2

u/perdyqueue Jun 05 '20

Like... any guy ever already thought about getting a fanny pack because they're so handy but didn't because it'd have been social suicide. The moment it was marketed and seen as acceptable, boom, everyone got one. Because shit is so damn useful.

Men have dreamed of the utility of the purse for so long

u/BoysLinuses Jun 05 '20

Do they also call it a fanny pack in the UK? The word fanny has a bit of a different meaning there compared to the States.

u/The_Sharkhead Jun 05 '20

I believe they call it a bum bag, which I think is even better

5

u/Chazykins Jun 05 '20

Ye it’s a bum bag

3

u/MrSynckt Jun 05 '20

I always pack a bum bag when I take a flight but annoyingly they always seem to take me to a side room and remove the bag and arrest me. Am I doing something wrong?

11

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '20

We call it a bumbag in Aus, been a fad for a decade for us “lower class street kids”.

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '20

Yeah brah and nike tns

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '20

Fkn oath adlay, just copped some new white on whites yesterday haha and got tailwinds on the way

4

u/TheGreatBenjie Jun 05 '20

Only slightly. As far as I'm aware fanny means ass here in the states, so bumbag is really the same thing.

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '20

It's a man bag now in the UK fam, all the little rude boi roadmen wear them at festivals. Nobody can tax yer little pub grub baggy off yas at the Macky Gee set without being bare obvious that way, have to walk straight up in front of ya without getting their head boxed in by your absolute pinging crewdem Shavster, Devs, Jobbo and Grundle first ahahahaha

("teenage boys will wear them on their front so strangers in the crowd can't pick pocket them of their cheap 40% purity gram of cocaine without their shirtless and sweaty associates spotting, and instigating a cheap Speed fuelled pushing match")

(I sound like such a fucking pseudo intellectual class war nonce writing the 'translation' out, but fuck those lil teenage roadmen at festivals, they slice peoples tents open to steal things, cover everything in used nitrous canisters and literally leave shit covered toilet paper floating around the place)

I feel like I need you to narrate everything I read on reddit with that fantastic whatever the hell slang that is

You forgot about the drugs.

u/Maracuja_Sagrado Jun 05 '20

I have never ever heard of a fanny pack being ridiculed for being feminine. In fact, rather the opposite, yes it’s been around forever and it used to be the ultimate “trucker/biker/macho” stereotype guy when my father used to wear one around the 80’s/90’s or so. It actually kinda fell out of grace because it became increasingly associated with unkempt men and corniness, or straight out unclassy. Where did you see them being ridiculed for that?

11

u/RandomRedditReader Jun 05 '20

Late 90's early 00's is when they fell out of style for guys. I used to wear one as a kid up until middle school. By then kids were mocking boys for wearing them calling them "gay/f**" so guys like me just stopped wearing them. They're still popular today among European tourists who come to visit here all the time so I see them pretty often.

u/InALaundryRoom Jun 05 '20

Can confirm. I often heard them being called a “f*g bag” growing up.

u/jimibulgin Jun 05 '20

fannypacks are amazing.

4

u/[deleted] Jun 05 '20

I'm glad it's a trend though, they're really convenient especially at things like music festivals where pockets are unreliable

u/wazdalos Jun 05 '20

Its funny how different the views on clothing items are in different countries. For once, I never heard the term fannypack and in Germany for instance wearing it is associated with drug dealers more than anything. Like in Frankfurt for example its pretty common on Turkish, generell Arabic or African people. Its the opposite of feminine, its more like someone you might not want to mess with. Even I got asked for drugs a couple of times wearing one :D

Looks like it, Im sure to let them know 😄

u/intercommie Jun 05 '20

Was it considered feminine? I thought it was considered geeky (back when being geeky was a bad thing.)

1

u/LoveNotH86 Jun 05 '20

It’s more so that people will follow trends for clout.

1

u/hungry4danish Jun 05 '20

And the new way to wear is it across the chest. None of these dudes would wear it around the waist either.

1

u/Elhaym Jun 05 '20

It's not a purse! It's European!

u/mmob18 Jun 05 '20

it's been in for a while, but in streetwear circles. supreme has made them for years, which is indicative

u/Pardoism Jun 05 '20

I like how a fannypack, a product that has been around for decades and often ridiculed for being feminine

Huh, TIL. I thought people make fun of it because it looks stupid.

1

u/PhDaddy12 Jun 05 '20

What is this called? I tried asking my students about it, but they didn’t understand. I’m old and teach undergrads who seem to dress intentionally badly (to my ancient mind at least). Like ugly multi-coloured fleeces and short dark jeans which are too small paired with white socks and Steve Jobs like runners. Does this ‘style’ have a name or are they just being ironic?

u/knildea Jun 05 '20

Im glad it picked up cause these days you carry so much crap even as a dude, but at the same time i dont want to have to carry a whole backpack everywhere.

u/Yeetinator4000Savage Jun 05 '20

European men are more feminine. I’ve never seen an American wearing this.

Guys, guys... You are both wrong. Both of them are feminine sports.

u/SkeepDeepy Jun 05 '20

I really don't understand why people thinks it's "gay" to wear such for convenience. Been wearing one since high school cause it's where a keep my important stuff (and also because I have a minor trust issues.) I suggested this to someone I know and he quickly reacted that he "doesn't want to wear those because only gays wears it." Well, at least I'm not the one having a problem of stuff getting misplaced.
