What does lamo mean? I understood the rest, and yes, my back hurts.
Comment on "Rizz", "cooking" and "based" are going to be stereotypical old people words one day

Misspelled “lame-o” is my guess. Though my spelling of it is a guess as well.

I’m 40 and I understand most of that, yup it’s old person speak.

C’mon Gen Z. You can’t have “tubular”. That’s clearly an 80s term, and thus belongs to the millenials. Same thing with “crib” and the 90s.
“Cuz” was early 2000s. I don’t know who that one falls to. All I know is I was about 18 before I heard it. So, basically on my last legs as far as being able to claim slang to my generation.
Geezers isn’t even my generation, or Gen X. It’s either the Boomers, The Greatest Generation, or The Silent Generation. Really pulling slang out by the roots on that one. What’s next? Are we going to take a trip to the Piggly Wiggly?

It’s been around a lot longer than that.

Greatest generation is dead dude. Ok maybe a few are around but like, they’re 100+
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
…ok? Does them being dead today negate the slang they created when they were alive?
Or are you claiming old slang gets put in the free for all bin, for any generation can adopt as their own?
Because I wouldn’t mind picking up “bees knees” when that becomes available.

Totally tubular, dude! That’s like, the raddest thing ever, and I’m stoked to be part of it. It’s got that gnarly vibe that makes you wanna bust a move and just hang loose. You’re on point, and it’s all that and a bag of chips. Keep it up, ‘cause you’re totally on the money!
