Ohio is a no no word? But that's the name of a state?

Why is Ohio number three on this banned words list?

Edging

How old are these kids, I was assuming pre teen

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

Anything that gets a rise out of your parents is going to be repeated on a loop whether or not you understand the context.

I remember saying "Pimp" in front of a friend's parent. She chewed me out over it, while my friend's younger sister listened in. She then proceeded to say "Pimp! Pimp! Pimp!" all the way home.

I was not invited back to that house for a month, which I think is a bit unfair.

Emma getting called out like that is hilarious

[–] MaxPow3r11@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

I can't believe they really called out Emma like that lol

[–] napkin2020@sh.itjust.works 39 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The best way to make sure everyone is saying those words is to ban them lol

[–] Goldholz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 30 points 2 days ago (4 children)

And best way to make them stop being used, is using them completely wrong and with the "i am hip with the teens" attitude

[–] rbamgnxl5@lemm.ee 13 points 2 days ago (2 children)

This works so very well. Turn them from fun to cringe with one irritating parent move.

I threatened to get a Sigma Dad tshirt and wear it to my son's school. He's since stopped with all the sigma stuff.

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

This reminds me of how John Oliver kept finding a way to work "on fleek" into his segments until it was declared no longer cool.

[–] laranis@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 days ago

I do this as well. Killed "bruh" in a weekend. The t-shirt idea is next level, though. Kudos.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 3 points 1 day ago

If you're 30+ it's your duty to destroy their words, just like the older generation did to our words, we will in turn kill these words untill only the true cool words remain, that is the way the universe purges itself of cringe.

Things I remember people complaining about at various times (I don't really recall gradeschool having any)

  • overuse (or use at all) of dude
  • doy
  • [no] duh
  • dweeb
  • overuse of awesome
  • various "surfer" slang (we all saw the TMNT movie)
  • at some point, maybe around high school, "my bad" became a thing. I still don't really like the phrase much.

I'm sure there are more locked somewhere in the recesses of my brain, but those are the ones that jump to mind. The internet was only really becoming a thing when I was in highschool and I lived in a very rural area for most of it so things spread much more slowly.

If this list was done for my class back when I was in school, realistically it'd just be slurs

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 104 points 3 days ago (5 children)

Damn, you are probably right. Maybe this generation isn’t so doomed after all.

Story time! When I was in high school (~1998/99) a group of kids decided to start a “gang.” I went to a small Baptist school. Kids were bored. This was maybe second period. They called their gang the “Yo’s.” Saying “Yo” was pretty much the extent of their gang. By lunchtime a group of us got annoyed and decided to start a rival gang called the “No’s.” The Bloods to the Yo’s Crips. The sign you were a No was you grabbed a brown paper towel from the bathroom and wore it hanging from your back pocket.

Anyway, just before dismissal everyone was called into an assembly and given a lecture on gangs and told that anyone wearing a brown paper towel would receive a detention. I am still amused at how seriously our administration took this obviously stupid and juvenile joke.

There was a shirt, it was Mario + Mushroom = Big Mario. Our administration thought this was a drug reference. Some nerdy kid would wear the shirt and about half way through the day they would be wearing it inside out.

[–] ziggurat@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago

Literally a 40 year old reference, seniors still in working age was in their 20s when this game was released

As always, the best way to get kids to stop using these words is to use them yourself. Use the ancient cringe-power to disarm the youth 🦹🔥

[–] wolframhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 27 points 2 days ago (1 children)

As a teacher, I cannot tell you how much this changed my life. I just spew their random shit right at them, totally straight-faced, with a painful degree of enunciation. They do not say those words again in my presence. Their cringe feeds me. I also find it helpful to try to get them to define each term, in excruciating detail, then I destroy the word for them.
