I think I get maybe half of those, but can someone explain why Ohio is on the list?
What would this list look like for your generation?

It just means “the shittiest location you can imagine”. Sometimes the most honest words come out of the mouths of children.
SirSamuel@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I understand hating on Ohio. It’s mostly flat and pretty much flyover country.
On the other hand, Ohio is a perfectly cromulent place to live. It’s an even better place to be from
MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip 11 months ago
Considered a weird place where weird things come. Ex: “MrBeast from Ohio” for the MrBeast imitation video / rap battle… that’s a bit outdated by now though

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.
blarghly@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Idk… seems like a drug reference, lol. The kid just isn’t cool enough to get it.

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

In the 80s they let us say bitchin’ in class because ‘‘is just slang for good’’
daggermoon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I need to say bitchin’ more. I forget that word exists.

As an elder gen Z I can assure you that the list of banned things in my class circa 2015 was somehow worse. Just off the top of my head.
SpongeBob laugh WW2 Propaganda (Just cause it’s historical doesn’t make it not pornography vaultdweller013) Any discussion of the killdozer Bulldozer noises Tank noises (You will all make annoying lawyers) Kazoos are not longer allowed Compressed air canisters are banned especially if you have a whistle and duck tape Arma is not allowed to be watched on computer property Soviet national anthem Russian national anthem State anthem of Mississippi Djibouti National anthem Sakkinarven Polka
Those are just the ones I remember, I am the direct source of at least half of them.
phoenixz@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
You had things banned in class?
Why?
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
I started the problem that got banned

volvoxvsmarla@lemm.ee 11 months ago
I will proceed to check out the national anthem of Djibouti and the state anthem of Mississippi. I might be back with some questions.
Hobo@lemmy.world 11 months ago
They changed the state anthem of Mississippi a couple of years ago from Go Mississippi to One Mississippi. It’s no longer contextually hilarious and not nearly as hoki. I guess Mississippi decided they were not on the right track and probably were never going to get to the top after all.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Shame the old one is pretty unique, frankly if anyone needs an update it’s us Californians. But we are also a somewhat lazy bunch and would probably just make California Dreamin the new anthem. Either that or the committee would let their insanity take hold and ya would end up with something reminiscing a Latin war cant.

mechoman444@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I get like 3 or 4 of those. Some of them I’ve heard out of context so I have no clue what they mean.
I’m 39.

His do you misspell memes as mames?
jcs@lemmy.world 11 months ago
artichoke99@lemm.ee 11 months ago
no mames translates to “no way” or “youre kidding” in spanish
Kolanaki@pawb.social 11 months ago
“Ratchet” would probably be up there.

FrChazzz@lemm.ee 11 months ago
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.
uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 months ago
Wait until you learn how seriously law enforcement took street gangs.
The whole Saints Row series was based on the dichotomy between incorrigible feral teens, a product of hands-off parenting while simultaneously running an international drug and crime syndicate
Of note is the property of ur-fascism the enemy [of the movement] is simultaneously strong and weak
Jtee@lemmy.world 11 months ago
We weren’t allowed to wear hats because that meant you were in a gang…
Snowclone@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Early 90s they were TERRIFIED we might wear gang color shoe laces.

Wth wrong with a fade (low or otherwise)? I’m afraid to know what kind of meme is so horrible when it just sounds like a basic haircut.

What the hell is -1 Live School point? Some sort of social credit nonsense?
Agent641@lemmy.world 11 months ago
The list made me do the Gus Fring smiley face but then the LiveSchool Points reference made me do the Gus Fring serious face. That sounds like some dystopian black mirror gamefied social control indoctrination bullshit that makes me want to say all the words.

The way I look at it, generation α and the next 5 generations are in a game of no-respin Russian roulette for who gets to be the ones to fight World War IV with sticks and stones.

SausageWallet@lemm.ee 11 months ago
They took away our pogs, so then we started playing card games like speed or war. Then they banned card games saying we were “gambling” even though we weren’t.

Seems like a desperate attempt here.
