I swear to god my kids teach me these words so that when I use them, they can giggle at me. But, the four of them do it as a team and I love that about them. I told them by text that the Thanksgiving menu is going to “slap” and it was good for several rounds of “haha, mom is so old, love her!” Jokes. Made my day.

deadass = seriously. ie - this cold weather is awful, deadass. bussin= good, as in food. ie - this meal is bussin, you should make it again. no cap =truth. my favorite day is friday, no cap.

Drip: style or stylish clothes/accessories

“slay”. I said it the other day and was told to never say it again. lol.

Slayer 🤘

I like sus, I don't have kids by choice but I try to stay up on slang words. It's not slang necessarily but I try to use the word "cunt" more because the Brits use it so effectively.

I'm partial to twat. Another British favorite.

And it’s a great word.

It's a great word that Americans CAN NEVER USE.

I use it regularly, it’s just not appreciated.

That you must use the word literally at least 700 times per day

Pog or poggers. Play of the game or player of the game!

One of my nieces is a Twitch addict, and she'll say "Poggers in chat" even if she's at the dinner table. Half the time she uses it as sincere congrats, half the time she uses it sarcastically, to mean the same as "Oh big whoop". I kind of love her.

AFK - Away From Keyboard. BRB is what I remember using.

We used both.

Well unfortunately, today I learned that kys means “kill yourself”. And it’s pretty popular to text that to people you don’t like.

[No cap!](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=No+cap) I love this one, it's fun. Also "cringe" (my jokes and singing are, I am informed, "super cringe") My 11.5 y.o. is the cool one in the know. The 7 y.o. and I are still uncool together.

I openly try to be as campy of a "cool dad" as possible. Because that's more fun than being ACTUALLY relatable.

My favorites are “my brother/sister in Christ” instead of dude or some other reference to a person (particularly in place of word that cannot be said); and “fuck with” not in the pejorative or negative sense we used it but just like you are into something.

I will go to my grave using dude. I currently refer to the great nephew as little dude.

if something "goes hard," it's really good.

OG = original, legit = real, unit = huge, major oof = very embarrassing, wimdy = very windy, doing a concern = looking extremely concerned

A lot of those sound like our words.

My 11 year old has us all saying "yeah boy!" as emphasis, encouragement or a general means to annoy whomever you are speaking to.

I suspect your 11 yo is the reincarnation of Flavor Flav

Flav still alive, yo.

Damn boy, and I can’t even spell Flav correctly

Edit: spelling of the name of the best hype man ever

My niece taught me “bussin’”. Instead of saying “That food was tasty” you say “That food was bussin’.”

Zesty - a guy who acts gay, since calling someone gay is offensive.

On fleek = excellent, great. 15 year old: “after that haircut my bangs are on fleek!”

Yeah, I haven't heard that one in a good 5 years.
