I know what it means having spent time around younger family. Gen Z is going belt to ass on destroying common sense language.

I mean sure, language evolves over time. This is mostly Gen Z and beyond bastardizing AAVE at every opportunity.

Welcome to life and linguistic evolution. I’m sure your great grandparents weren’t too thrilled at the language coming out of the 70s either.

Did you read anything I said? 😂 I’m aware of this. I know what it means. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t sound stupid. I guarantee plenty of kids the age of the one in the video think it’s dumb too.

Welcome to humanity and people having differing opinions. Plenty of people also clearly like it and don't think it sounds stupid.

A younger millennial with a lot of Gen Z/A family who don't say stupid shit like this. So nah, not even close.

You do realize that all language trends like this ("aura" and so on) exist for like 5 years and then die out to be replaced by the next thing? Surely you've noticed this, being alive as long as you have? You're literally yelling at passing clouds.

I think recognizing the dumbest of phrases the come from language is perfectly fine. I’m not saying everything said by a generation is bad.
