Informal Generation Y Terms

Netflix and chill

Let’s turn on this movie we have no intention of watching and then fool around on the couch.

Sorry not sorry

Un-remorseful about something with emphasis.

Sipping the tea / Spilling the tea - GenY, GenZ

Started with a meme of Kermit the Frog sipping tea, which included the caption, “But that’s none of my business.” It basically means pretending not to notice when something crazy or salacious is happening. When you’re spilling the tea, that usually signifies that gossip is being shared, and therefore the tea is a little more difficult to swallow.

Woke - GenY, GenZ

A political term of African-American origin that has started being used by other demographics, meaning aware of social issues and injustices, especially racism.

Swerve

It means you’re in the wrong lane—metaphorically speaking. When somebody requests that you “swerve,” they’re saying, “You’re not welcome here. Get lost, leave us alone, swerve!”

Salty - GenY, GenZ

Being in a bad or grumpy mood.

The struggle is real

if someone says this to you, you’re being made fun of. They’re saying that the thing you’re taking so seriously, that you consider such an egregious tragedy, might not be as bad as you think. The struggle is, in fact, not real, and you should learn to recognize sarcasm.

Xennials

Older millennials got tired of being called millennials, so they invented a new name for themselves. If you were born between 1977 and 1983 and don’t feel like you belong in either Generation X or millennials, you’re an xennial.

Thirsty

You’re craving something. It could be anything from more Instagram followers or that woman you just spotted across the club. Can also be used in a self-deprecating manner; if you want it so much that you’re thirsty, it might be time to calm down.

Trolls

Jerks who say nasty things to strangers online. Trolling is the act of provoking, manipulating or annoying someone by posting offensive comments online. This is often done for the troll’s entertainment or to achieve a specific goal, such as interfering with a rival’s online activity or deliberately upsetting or hurting other people.

Basic

Unoriginal, typical, or mainstream. “Every October, I start drinking a pumpkin spice latte every morning. I’m basic and proud.”

Goals AF

It’s a shorthand for “Whatever we are discussing includes things I’ve like to achieve or possess in my life.” It could be a sweet new tech gadget, or a beautiful woman you’d love to see on your arm. The AF (an acronym means “As F-word”) just supplies emphasis.

Bae

Before Anyone Else. Likely started as an attempt to say “baby” or “babe” but then they realized mid-way through the word that they just didn’t have the energy for that last vowel.

Bounce

It’s when you have to leave someplace quickly.

On fleek

Another way of saying something is “on point.”

RT

Retweet, a reference to sharing someone else’s tweet on Twitter. Shorthand for “I don’t have the time or energy to come up with an original thought, so here’s what somebody else said.” Or, simply: “ditto.”

Clap back

When you get dissed and you’re not just going to sit there and stew in your own juices, you return the favor with a clap back. Get it? You “clap” them back.

Fire

Used as an adjective to indicate high quality or desirability.

LB/FB

Shorthand for “like back” or “follow back.” It refers to the moment when someone liked or followed you on social media and you returned the favor by hitting the same button on your own screen.

Hunty

Borrowed from drag queens, calling somebody “hunty” is announcing that you’re well aware of their shenanigans, just in case they think they’re pulling a fast one on you. “Nice try, Hunty.”

Quiche

It means hotter than hot. And if there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that quiches are sexy. Wait, what? Okay, maybe not. But maybe that’s why this millennial slang works. It’s like saying, “She’s so hot, she’s like my grandma’s slippers,” or “Her bikini photos are like a kale smoothie.” It works because it really, really doesn’t.

Sus - GenY, GenZ

Suspect, shady, or suspicious.

Ratchet

When it’s all gone to hell - your hair, your clothes, your job, your life - then you’re ratchet. The word was created to describe a woman who can’t keep it together, but it’s evolved to embody pretty much anybody whose personal or professional life has gone off the rails.

Cancel

A less abrasive way of saying, no, this isn’t going to happen.

I can’t even

You can’t even what? It doesn’t matter. It could be something specific, it could be reality in general. The point is, the world has gone insane, and we can’t even.

FOMO / JOMO

Fear Of Missing Out on something like an event or purchase. Variant of this is JOMO, Joy Of Missing Out.

FOBO

Fear of better options; the inability to decide on something just because we don’t want to miss out on what else may be there.

FOJI

Fear of joining in; the fear that one will get entangled in joyless social activities, meaningless conversations or empty selfie-posing.

Dead

It’s how they express having seen or read something that’s so good or funny, it’s awesomeness has (figuratively) killed them with joy.

Lit

Something is especially excellent, such as a lit party.

Merica / ‘Merica

Poking fun at America’s seemingly endless capacity for self-love. When people get too excited about fireworks and firearms and monster trucks, that’s ‘Merica.

Break the Internet

With so much noise online, creating something that causes a genuine buzz and actually dominates the global conversation, when you’re not a Kardashian or a Trump, is nothing short of a miracle.

Humble brag

A humblebrag is a modest comment that’s actually meant to invite praise. Humblebragging means making casual or self-deprecating comments about yourself in order to appear humble, but in actuality, you’re drawing attention to your positive qualities or achievements.

• “I think my biggest weakness is that I’m too much of a perfectionist. If I’m going to do something, I can’t rest until it’s 100% flawless, which is really stressful.”
• “I feel like I was so unproductive this weekend. I mean, I cleaned my whole house, did all my laundry, and started on this big project with my husband in our yard, but those are all typical weekend chores.”
• “I was not super impressive in high school. I had a 4.0 GPA and was in the National Honors Society and stuff, but I didn’t do very many extracurriculars.”

Turn Up / Turnt Up / Turned Up

Other ways of saying you’re having fun at the party.

Bye Felicia

If someone is leaving and you really don’t care, you dismiss them with “Bye, Felicia.” It’s a diss that really only works if the person you’re trying to insult isn’t named Felicia. If she is, well, then you’ve been accidentally polite.

Pics or it didn’t happen

A form of sarcasm that evolved out of an actual necessity. People tend to lie on social media. Well, they lie everywhere, but especially on the Internet, where everybody seems to crave attention from strangers, and they’ll write just about anything to get it. It’s hard to trust anybody anymore, so demanding “pics or it didn’t happen” isn’t so much a request for photographic evidence. It’s just saying, “Based on my experience on the Internet, I’m biased against believing you.”

FOH

When you want to say you’re getting the “eff outta here,” but are too polite to put it in so many words, the millennial acronym FOH does the job for you.

Said no one ever

Four words that can negate just about any statement, with just the right amount of sneering sarcasm. “I sure love family picnics…. said no one ever.”

Because duh

Exclamation points are so needy. If you really want to express how something you’ve just said IS SO TOTALLY TRUE, just end it with the quantifier “because duh.” It works every time.

Slay

To “slay” means to do an exemplary job.

YAAAAAS

Emphasised “Yes.”

Adulting

All the mundus that grownups do.

Extra

Over-the-top or extravagant. Being or doing more than expected for no reason, dramatic, excessive.

Low-key

Laid-back or easygoing.

High-key

Absolutely or without a doubt, intense and/or obvious. For example, “I saw her in the musical this weekend, and she was incredible. She’s high-key a star.” Can also be used as a synonym for “very” or “totally” when expressing an opinion: “That movie was high-key terrible. I’m telling everyone I know that it’s not worth seeing.”

Shook

Being “shook” means that you’re super shocked about something. Examples:

• “I was so shook when I heard they broke up. I totally thought they were going to be together forever!”
• “That movie had me so shook. The ending twist was so insane—I literally couldn’t speak!”
• “When I won the award I was completely shook. I definitely thought it was going to be one of my coworkers, but I’m so thankful it was me.”

Glow-Up

An impressive makeover or personal transformation. “He used to be a bit of a jerk, but he’s had a huge glow up recently. He’s super kind and mature now, and I think he’d make a great boyfriend.”

Throw shade

Throwing shade means subtly insulting someone. If someone throws shade at you, they’re trash talking or disrespecting you, but in an understated or unassuming way. The phrase originally gained popularity in Black and Latino LGBTQ ballroom culture, and it can be found in iconic media such as RuPaul’s Drag Race and the documentary Paris is Burning.

• “Her tweets didn’t directly name me, but anyone who knows the two of us would be able to tell she was throwing shade at me. I wish she would just talk to me directly so we can work this out.”
• “I couldn’t risk confronting him directly about his ridiculous behavior, but I did spend all afternoon throwing shade at him and giving him annoyed looks.”

Mood / Big Mood

If something is a mood, it’s super relatable. People usually use this term to express how deeply they resonate with a person, thing, or idea. Big mood is with more emphasis. “My dog has been alternating between eating and napping on the couch all day. He’s such a mood.”

Vibe

A “vibe” is the mood or energy that something gives off. It can be used in a positive context (“Oh my gosh, this café is such a vibe. I love the decor!”) or a negative context (“I don’t know him that well, but he has a bad vibe. I don’t trust him.”) There are several variations of this term, including “It’s a vibe,” which means that something is cool or fun, and “vibe with,” which means that you enjoy someone’s company. “There was a great vibe at the party this weekend. Everyone had such a good time!” “Your outfit is such a vibe. You look amazing!” “I really vibe with him! We had a great date this weekend, and I definitely think I’ll see him again.”

Slaps

If something slaps, it’s amazing or excellent. Like “fire,” this term is often used to praise yummy food and great music. “This pizza slaps. I was so hungry, and I’m literally in heaven right now.” Or, “Turn up the speaker! This song slaps so hard. It’s my go-to when I want to put myself in a good mood.”

Fam

Short for family, an affectionate way to refer to close friends. The term basically means that you consider people to be your family even if they don’t share your blood. For example, if you have a group text with your besties, you could send a message that reads: “Okay fam! What are we doing this weekend? Any fun ideas?” The term can be used to refer to a singular person (“Hey fam, are you feeling okay? Didn’t see you in class this morning”) or to a group (“Fam, let’s plan a girls trip this summer. It’s been too long”).

Flex

To “flex” means to show off, brag, or flaunt your success. This term could refer to one’s physical appearance, accomplishments, finances, or belongings. “Ever since he got that raise at work, he’s been totally flexing. He keeps posting pictures of luxurious stuff he’s buying, like that showy sports car he just got.” “He was trying to flex on me by talking about all the girls who are interested in him, but it was such a turn off. He seems pretty full of himself.”

Receipts

Having receipts of something means you have proof or evidence. People often use this term to call someone out for lying about something. For example: “Don’t even try to say that you weren’t cheating. I have receipts—my friends saw you at the party and texted me pictures.” “I promise, I told you that the appointment was at 11:00, not 1:00. Let me pull up my texts and show you the receipts.” “I know she’s going to say that I lied to her, but I didn’t. I took screenshots of the entire conversation so that I’d have receipts.”

Stan

A stan is an extremely devoted fan. In a positive context, this term could refer to someone who is super enthusiastic about a musician, actor, or celebrity. On the negative side, stans are sometimes seen as overly zealous or obsessive. “She’s a Game of Thrones stan. When the show was on TV, she threw themed watch parties every week, and her house is filled with GOT merch.” “I used to be a hardcore Lady Gaga stan. I went to a ton of concerts and only listened to her music.” “She used to stan One Direction to an unhealthy degree. She was totally obsessed with them.”

Ship / Shipping

If you “ship” two people, you’re rooting for them as a couple. This term can refer to fictional characters (“They didn’t end up together, but I totally shipped Harry and Hermione in Harry Potter”), famous people (“I ship Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce together—they’re so cute!”), or even people you know in real life (“I’m trying to get my two best friends to date because they’re perfect for each other. I seriously ship them”). The term “shipping,” which is derived from the word “relationship,” refers to the desire of members of a fandom for two or more individuals - real people or fictitious characters from books, movies, television shows, etc. - to be in a romantic or sexual relationship.

Ghosting / Ghost

Ghosting means abruptly cutting off contact with someone. It’s usually used in a dating context. For example, imagine that you’ve gone on a few dates with someone and it seems like things are moving forward. Then, out of nowhere, they stop responding to texts and you never hear from them again. This person has unfortunately “ghosted” you. “After my interview, that company completely ghosted me. They never gave me feedback, and they won’t answer my emails!” “Me and my ex friend were supposed to meet up for coffee, but I think she’s ghosting me. She hasn’t replied to my last few texts about scheduling a time.”

GOAT

GOAT is an acronym that stands for “greatest of all time.” For example, you might say, “In gymnastics, Simone Biles is the undisputed G.O.A.T. No one else even comes close.” Or, “When it comes to modern pop stars, I think Beyonce is the G.O.A.T. Her artistry and vocal ability are unmatched!” You can also use G.O.A.T. in more humorous contexts to refer to inanimate objects. “Unpopular opinion, but I think honey mustard is the G.O.A.T. when it comes to condiments.”

YOLO

”You Only Live Once.” People often use this phrase to rationalize or justify impulsive behavior. It’s essentially a modern version of carpe diem. For example, “I should be studying tonight, but I couldn’t miss this concert. YOLO, I guess!” “I’m nervous, but I think I’m just gonna text him and ask him out. YOLO!” “I’ve been trying to save money, but honestly YOLO. I really want the new iPhone, so I’m just gonna buy it and hope for the best.”

On Fleek

On fleek means perfect or exactly right. For example, if someone’s makeup looks incredible, right down to the smallest detail, you might say, “Your makeup is on fleek!” Or, if you want to express your admiration of someone’s outfit, you could say, “Your outfit is on fleek today. Every detail is immaculate.”
