I used to be with it, then they changed what "it" is

Pwn should be a few steps back

Pwn, pwned was so specific to gaming it shouldn't even be on the list.
- And pog is specific to twitch in the gaming sphere, so the same logic would apply.
Glad I'm not the only one.... The hell is it doing after epic?
- Should be "let's go" then "no cap"
- Epic for the win

I'm old enough to experience slang which isn't native to my generation. But let me just say, this current generations slang is the shittest in a long time.

Previous gen slang (fam, lit, yeet) was a 6/10

Current gen slang (frfr, no cap, rizz) is 2/10

Next gen has such a low bar to beat, it'll be hard for them to fuck this up.

Hemlo, inventor of PWN here.

It was a misspelling of "Owned" in a Warcraft 2 map that I made. People thought it was funny that it upset me when I noticed the typo and perpetuated the map version with the misspelling.

"Player 1 was pwned."

For more Internet history facts, stay tuned.

Sounds like you got pwned, noob.
- I fucking did. The Internet will never let me live it down.
  
  However, it belongs to you all now!
  
  Be free
  
  And get rekt :p
Thank you for this incredibly interesting yet highly unexpected history lesson. I really enjoy knowing this now.
..... I can't tell if you're serious or joking but since it's Lemmy I want to think you're serious and that's pretty fucking cool if it is, bud
- Hello fellow pog, it is me, your ancestor :>
ITS HIM! GET HIM!!!!
Yeah, pwn was way before epic
Did Pure Pwnage ever pay you rolalties?
- Are you kidding me? No way. You can't trademark a word or a typo. That's dumb.
  
  Jeremy deserves every ounce of his fame from Pure Pwnage

I still use rad and gnarly. Because those words are rad and gnarly.

I see this as an epic win
- That's some wicked illness for real.
That's pretty tubular of you
I've been called out for my overuse of the word rad before lmao
Rad, gnarly, sick are still widely used in skiing and snowboarding circles at least.
- Anything for the gnar points

As a millenial, yeet is still the greatest new word ever added, and why I personally will never be against the new generations choice of words. Fuckin Rizz is starting to appeal to me too

Yeet and yoink are perfection.
- Especially with how you pronounce yeet, I cannot think of another English word that is as fun to say
My problem is, right about when a word starts to appeal to me and I'm like "oookayy I'll start saying it," it's way too late.

I guess I could balance it by always appending a Dude-like "..in the parlance of our times.."
- That's the thing. Once it starts appealing to you, it loses value to the original group.
  
  It's one of my favorite ways to fuck with my nephews and nieces.
- Thats why I just start saying words Ironically immediately and then get infected into using them unironically
Yeah once I learned Rizz is just charisma I wasn't so mad
That hep cat’s rizz is putting the jelly in this pawg’s roll.
I rizzed in with a W cap from Ohio 🎶
- F'real
ate it
Rizz? Can we just send that word back to hell already?
- I mean its just a shortened form of Charisma. Cha sounds weird, and Risma sounds like the set up for a "MUH BAWLZ" Joke

My hotman

Thanos about to snap his fingers. The captions have him saying, "I am inevitable." Text on his chest reads, "THE WORD "COOL""

Aaah, that's hot

pog was also popular in the 90s tho

Remember pog? It's back!
- In POG form!
- but now it's Alf, remember Alf?
You knew things had gotten serious when the metal slammers came into play.
I'm a little sad I had to scroll so long to even find a reference to the old "pogs". Damn what a weird fad.

Still use gnarly. Get fucked, I'm never giving it up. Over my dead body

Sick, dude.
- Totally righteous 🤙
Rad
- I still use that, and I’m trying to bring def back but I got none of the rizz to do it
I sometimes use the weird words 90s kids used here in Germany. My favorites are definitely lazer and Porno. Porno literally meaning porn.
- Find isch auch porno

Oh I still have POGs around somewhere. Middle aged Americans can kill this quickly...

Alf Pogs?

Pog is like 3 years outa date we chillin with skibidi rizz rn

I like your funny words, magic man

Right now, "huge" is popping up a lot.

Big if true

One way in the back should say “bees knees”.

And somewhere between it and "rad," "swell" and "far out."
- "sweet" should be on there somewhere after the 80s slang.
Next to "bee's bollocks"
- ... and dog's bollocks.

Whats the timeline on these? I feel like pwn win and epic all happened at the same time. Also i dont see leet or '1337"

"Rad" and "gnarly," too.
- I mean people didn’t entirely stop using them but those seem like 90's terms to me.

Bully!

Capital, old chap

Dinkin flicka is not on this list and it makes me sad.

wicked

What a groovy meme, dude

Phat.

Bitchin’

I accidentally used Pog in real live when a girl that I've grown really close to told me about her having a boyfriend.

I guess you're her little pogchamp, now.
Friendzone nah thats poggers her rizzler can have that gyat

Off to the side, begging to be let in: "fetch."

Did I miss pog and pwn? Or are they so new I haven't heard them yet? My coworkers are all in the same age range as me, but they are cooler also. Anyway I'm old and a couple of them have "no cap" on jackets so I can't imagine that's a fresh one.

Lmao pwn is like 20 years old.
- No fucking way. Is it pronounced like pawn? P-W-N? Was it more of a online text thing?

Pog has been around for years. But up until recent it has been pretty exclusive to streaming and esports. So I amagine it's easy to miss if you are not in that bubble. pwn is the only one on the list I've never heard before.
- It was my understanding that pwn mean you are "owning" them in like a winning way. Like instead of Saying "I just owned you" when you win at something, you say "I just pwned you."
  
  Am I way off? Does it have a new meaning? I'm so far out of the loop these days.

YEET!

KOBE!

BretFavre!

Swish!

Hot Potato!

...

"No Cap" is Black slang. It's not done until Black People replace it with something else.

Eat

Its all circular because pogs was first

Not very sigma of you.

Pogs are pretty pwn.
