What internet slang term do you love to use and see used?

I love using Consoomer, as recent as a while ago. This is the perfect term to describe people who spend their every waking minute, feeling like they've got to go buy things. It isn't because they're buying to survive or sustain. They're buying just to consoom. Cattle with wallets as I've called them.

I also like Coomer, because it makes fun of people who're obsessed with jacking off and pornography in unhealthy ways.

I like the term “cooked” when you screw up

As a person who occasionally makes confessional asides "to the camera" I find it amusing to rhetorically ask "Chat" about things. "Ugh, I don't wanna cook tonight. How about it Chat, we ordering pizza?"

I like "fr"

My unpopular opinion is that I absolutely hate this phrase. Also, "not gonna lie", yuck.

I'm weak for "it's a Dutch paradox".

What is a Dutch paradox?

I'm Googling it, but all I'm finding is pre-2020 political articles.

Just remove it with this simple command
rm -fr \

I'm always in favour of green text "be me" instead of I.

bork rings a bell for me. from the sweedish chef. my headcanon is when you try to work but totally borked it. the original intention may be different.

sus. suspicious. easier to say and since everybody almost knows it, they can easily catch on. totally not "jesus".

gg/rip. good game. i find very flexible to use and feels like it's acceptable in most circumstances to mean "it's over".

I catch myself using "GG" in real life all the time, it's just become part of the local parlance in my gaming group. Usually it comes out as part of "RIP GG", basically, good try but we're cooked.

i totally feel you. for close friends / acquaintances:

  • sleep deprived? reply: gg, rip
  • stuck in traffic? reply: rip, gg
  • plans didn't pan out? reply: gg

If it helps, I also use borked and gg in everyday life

Though I guess only because my friend group plays a lot of games so its a very familiar term

"Consoomer" would just sound like someone who read the word "consumer" and never heard it, especially someone who doesn't speak English as a first language. I would never guess it's an internet word! Haha

I like af when added after an adjective to increase the magnitude. Something could be sus, which means something is suspicious. Or, it could be sus af, which means that thing is super suspicious and almost certainly has something going on. Why yes, I have been playing Among Us. Red sus af.

I've come to love anything related to music.

This song is a total bop

This shit slaps!

And so on...

I love it to annoy people that think new slang is stupid, but it's also nice to have new words to describe music, I think.

Never realized how many absolute BANGERS that ABBA has until we saw a cover band of them recently.

I like hearing Australians say "munted"

I have a pet tanuki, which are also known as raccoon dogs, and I like to combine the slang term for raccoon which is "trash panda" and the slang term for dog which is "doggo".

“The sub ConsumeProduct is a front for anti-Semites under the guise of genuine anti-consumerism. Looking through their comments makes that abundantly clear”

Also

“A coomer is a stereotypical degenerate porn addict. The template is used to critique not only pornography but also "woke" sexual politics in general (such as to mock the idea that sex work is a legitimate profession).

4chan being 4chan, the sub's full of shit about how porn is a Jewish plot to destroy the white race or whatever.”

So, OP is an anti-semitic.

Isn’t it spelled “consumer?”

The real word, yes.

And how is that any different?

I like "whoosh" personally

Whoosh perfectly describes you. These terms have hateful undertones you seem to not know about.

Great job!

No shame in being whooshed every now and then, happens to the best of us.

I agree it sucks being out of the loop, so when I looked into it:

“The sub ConsumeProduct is a front for anti-Semites under the guise of genuine anti-consumerism. Looking through their comments makes that abundantly clear”

Sounds like some pretty stupid and hateful shit, but maybe that’s just me?

Is your skin this thin in real life, or only online?

What does the first sentence in the post say?

The same word is not slang.

It has a different spelling and connotation. That's enough. It may not be kewl but it counts.
