Hey,MM...I only hav a God-daugther whose 12 but some of the things she says are over my head too. The acts she listens too certainly are!
Imagine a band called My Chemical Romance and in their picture they are dressed like those abusive guys in bowler hats from "A Clockwork Orange"!
I don't put down her age group or her musical choices,we all get to be that young once,so who are we to talk? I was sort of shocked when I first heard "that's gay",used as a way of saying that something was lame or stupid in one's opinion. LOL! :D
In the 80s,I and my brothers were still saying "dude"! LOL! As well as:
Awesome!/gnarly!/radical!/lame!/as if!
(valley talk)--->totally tubular!/bogus! & so many more!
Every generation wants it's own lingo & "secret' phrases that we adults are not supposed to "really get". I'm actually glad I don't use that way of talking anymore,although now & then I do use it in a humorus way.
Well,later "dudes" & "babes",I gotta "Jet",so like....uh,"later gators"!! :D
