    I spent some time looking up the ones that were unfamiliar. Only the cardiac arrest meme I could not find out much over (outside of a TikTok link)

    I get the sense that this list is constantly growing and acts as an incentive to invent new words that end up on the list.

    By that measure, Emma is a rockstar and Darius is being bullied by their classmates and the teacher.

        Much to do is always made of the kids personally I’m undecided. I have a feeling that they might go hard left after the formative experiences are Christmas being ruined by the right winger in the White House

          Percentage of young men is increasingly right wing, unfortunately. Economy/costs is usually not the driver for the young, it’s community, perceptions of confidence and strength, and attitude towards sex (once old enough, but much younger now than it used to be [in the US]).

    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.

      In public highschool in the '90s in rural Ohio. A bunch dressed in western/cowboy gear and brought guns to a football game and there was some other ‘gang’ as well (maybe same fashion but different belief? I don’t remember). One person got found with a gun and arrested, but nothing else came of it. Yeehaw, I suppose.

    • 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
