So since I moved to Davis last year, I've noticed that I've started using a lot of slang terms that I never used to say to the point where old friends say that I 1) sound hella white-washed and 2) talk like a dude (sometimes) by the way I talk now. In fact, I hadn't even heard of some of these terms being used before I came to Davis because I apparently missed the memo (e.g. sketch [for sketchy], legit, the general dropping of any syllable after a sh sound [sesh, short for session, soc, short for sociology], and a plethora of terms for smoking/drinking/being inebriated/high).

So ummm what slang terms or just phrases in general have you recently picked up and been using? If the meaning's not apparent, please explain it to us. :)

After meeting a new group of people, I eventually started picking up little bits of slang that they use that I hadn't.
Saying someone is 'ripping' = laughing really hard
Calling someone 'weaksauce' = weak/pansy
Etc. There's more but that's all I can think of at the moment.

Haha, someone that's ripped is REALLY high around here (or buff, everywhere else). Or they took a fat rip from a bong/blunt/whatever. (I'm a stoner. :x)

I still remember this one guy came up me my first week in college and said, "Hey, nice titty meat".

This was first introduction to college slang.

I wouldn't call it slang, but we found out that our Japanese teacher doesn't really pay attention to us. So we started being lazy and saying things like "what's up desu ka" and "nothing desu." It's not likeI can't speak (somewhat) proper Japanese if I wanted to!

And, uh, everyone picked up on the fact that I call the crazy Christians at our school Jesus Junkies. I swear they are stoned on God, they make no sense when they try to convert me. They started dropping the second half of awesome too and saying awse. I'm waiting for someone to say splendiferous. That would make me burst out laughing.

Not so much slang, but the word "LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME" has been the latest every-other-word-that-comes-out-of-my-mouth.

I think I'm starting to use more Cantonese slang than I used to.
Not too good.

And I don't really speak English often so there's not much slang really.

I've been hearing a lot of people say "Oh, are you forserious?!" Like it's one word, haha. The first time I heard it, I laughed so hard. It's just funny how people say it sometimes.

I don't say that though.

One word I've noticed that I tend to say quite a bit is "awesome".
And how I say it is..I don't know. When I say it how I say it, people usually assume it's me saying it.
'Cause I guess not a lot of people say it like I do?

...I think I confused myself, haha. mellow.gif

I remember after watching "Dude, Where's My Car?" with my boyfriend, I kept saying "dude", "awesome", and "sweeeeet" non-stop for like three days. laugh.gif

I guess "awesome" just kinda' stuck.

Oh, I guess I've been saying "shibby" too, 'cause my boyfriend says it a lot.
Because of that movie. blink.gif
