      Really? “All that and a bag of chips” followed by snapping your fingers 3 times in the shape of a Z seems like something a sane person would say?

      or “bout it bout it rowdy rowdy”?

      or “salty” or “scrubs” when not refering to sodium or doctors medical attire.

      Our slang, just like every generations slang, was the worst.

        All that and a bag of chips

        I remember that being said … a handful of times

        followed by snapping your fingers 3 times in the shape of a Z seems like something a sane person would say?

        and I barely remember that… certainly I don’t remember it tied to the former.

        or “bout it bout it rowdy rowdy”?

        0 recollection of that

        or “salty” or “scrubs” when not refering to sodium or doctors medical attire.

        Fair – I do remember both of those.

        Our slang, just like every generations slang, was the worst.

        I was informed by a friend I’m actually thinking of gen alpha slang (and blaming Gen Z) with stuff like … https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Skibidi Toilet

        I guess it’s just a matter of what’s “normal” with folks around you, particular as a kid. I certainly wasn’t in a slang heavy group of kids in general. We texted with (near) proper grammar and full sentences and also found the “r u k? bb” kind of stuff pretty cringe-worthy.
