Slang evolves like wildfire, and 2024’s been no exception. One word I’ve heard everywhere is 'rizz'—short for charisma, usually about someone’s smooth dating game. My younger cousin drops it constantly, like 'Bro’s got rizz' when some TikToker flirts effortlessly. Then there’s 'gyatt,' which started as a meme but now just means someone’s got an eye-catching physique. It’s wild how fast these spread; even my gym buddies use it unironically.
Another standout is 'skibidi,' which feels random but exploded from a viral video series. Teens toss it around as a joke for anything chaotic. And 'Ohio' isn’t just a state anymore—it’s shorthand for surreal or unhinged situations. Like, 'That party was pure Ohio.' Language feels like an inside joke sometimes, but that’s what makes it fun to keep up with.
2024 slang feels like a collision of gaming, memes, and niche subcultures. 'Touch grass' still lingers as a dig at online obsessives, but now it’s 'go prune your roses' for extra sass. 'NPC' went mainstream—calling someone bland or scripted, like background characters in games. I overheard a barista say it about a customer zoning out in line.
Then there’s 'bussin,' which my foodie friends won’t stop using for anything delicious. 'Mid' is the ultimate insult for mediocrity, though. Music, movies, even sandwiches get labeled 'mid' if they’re just okay. And 'no cap'? Still going strong for honesty, but now with extra flair, like 'That outfit’s fire, no printer.' Slang’s creativity never disappoints—it’s like watching language turn into inside jokes in real time.
The slang scene this year is a mix of absurdity and specificity. 'Fanum Tax' cracked me up when I first heard it—it’s this inside joke about a streamer’s friend stealing food, but now it means snatching something casually. My Discord group uses it for everything from grabbing fries to taking the last slice of pizza. Then there’s 'sigma,' describing someone hyper-independent, often with a sarcastic edge. It’s funny how Greek letters became personality labels.
Less playful but equally viral is 'grimace shake,' referencing that bizarre McDonald’s meme. People say 'I’m feeling grimace shake' to describe existential dread with a side of irony. And 'lore' isn’t new, but it’s everywhere—backstories for everything, from celebrity drama to why your coworker hates staplers. Slang’s not just words; it’s cultural snapshots.

After I found out my Alpha mate, Bruce, couldn't let go of his ex-mate, Fiona, and her pup, I started teaching our son to call him "Alpha Bruce."
When our son had a fever, Fiona called my mate away in the middle of the night. I touched my son’s burning forehead and had him say, "Goodbye, Alpha."
When he bailed on the birthday party he’d promised our son because Fiona called, crying that her own son didn't have a father, I didn't even look up. I just had our son explain to the guests, "The Alpha has something important to do."
Our son always hesitated for a long time.
Until Bruce finally realized how much he’d failed us.
He suggested we take a family portrait.
But at the studio, Fiona called again, sobbing.
“Bruce, can you please come and pretend to be Tony’s dad? The kids at daycare are making fun of him for not having one…”
A flicker of guilt crossed Bruce’s face. He was about to kneel and explain it to our son.
But this time, our son didn't need my cue. He just waved.
“It’s okay, Alpha Bruce. Go be with your other pup. Mom and I are enough for the family photo.”

In eight years together, my boyfriend—Shayne Raffield—blocked me eighty-eight times.
This time? Because I missed his call. At my best friend's birthday party.
Usually, I'd panic-order a gift, then stand outside his office, head down, ready to beg.
But today? I blocked him first.
The Chat Feed popped up, loud as ever:
[Nooo, Ley-Bae, don't block Shay-Shay! He's just got abandonment issues. Comfort him!]
[Shay's heart = shattered; Eyes = red. Ley, go! One pout and he's yours again!]
Then Shayne called.
Didn't say a word. Just breathed for ten seconds and hung up.
The Chat Feed freaked out.
[AHHHH SHAY LOVES LEY SO MUCH HE JUST SUCKS AT SAYING IT. THIS COWARD'S GONNA LOSE HIS GIRL.]
Contains strong language:
My parents died, my sister died, my brothers left, and I was left to a man who thought we were pawns in his play.
You know the type of people who say "it gets better" they're lying to you, because it just keeps getting worse.
How the hell did I end up in a gang? Well, this is that story
My mother-in-law could not understand me.
Before my business trip, I repeatedly told her not to touch anything in my study, but she mixed up the contract I needed. As a result, I lost a million-dollar order and was fired from my company.
To make up for her mistake, she promised she would take care of my child and help me find another job.
I froze my milk, labeled everything with notes, and gave her detailed instructions on timing and measurements.
However, when my baby ended up in the hospital, I found out that she had thrown out all the milk and fed my baby expired formula instead.
Even worse, she fed my baby peanuts behind my back, causing my baby to suffocate and die.
Afterward, she wailed, "That was my granddaughter! How could I not care? If I could, I'd die with her..."
My husband slapped me, shouting, "My mom worked so hard to take care of the child, and you want to drive her to her death? She's an old woman. It's not easy for her!"
My sister-in-law came over too, calling me ungrateful and blaming me for treating an elderly woman badly. She claimed I deserved to be childless and alone.
However, they did not know how many times I had stopped my mother-in-law from causing trouble and harm to them.
I was driven to depression by them and eventually sent to a mental institution, where I was tortured to death.
If I had the chance to do it again, I would protect my child and myself and stop preventing my mother-in-law from causing chaos for others.
I would watch her bring equal destruction to each one of them!
Man, slang evolves faster than my TikTok feed! The 2024 teen lexicon is wild—'skibidi' (weirdly viral from that toilet-head meme), 'gyatt' (when someone's got a... noticeable backside), and 'sigma' (supposedly the ultimate loner archetype) dominate. But my personal fave? 'Ohio' as a verb for chaotic situations ('This party is so Ohio right now'). Also, 'rizz' (charisma) got upgraded to 'w rizz' (winning charm).
What fascinates me is how niche meme references ('fanum tax' from streamer Fanum) bleed into everyday talk. Teens weaponize irony—calling everything 'delulu' (delusional) or 'glazing' (excessive praise). Language feels like an inside joke where only Gen Alpha has the decoder ring. Still, nothing beats the collective eye-roll when adults try to use 'no cap' unironically.
Growing up in London, I picked up slang like 'bruv' and 'innit' almost by osmosis—it’s just how people talk here. But when I visited Australia, I was baffled by terms like 'arvo' for afternoon or 'brekkie' for breakfast. It’s wild how even within English-speaking countries, slang can feel like a different dialect. American slang, for instance, leans heavily into pop culture references ('ghosted,' 'salty'), while UK slang often feels more rooted in local humor and irony ('banter,' 'cheeky').
What fascinates me is how slang evolves. Jamaican Patois influences UK slang ('wagwan'), while Māori words pepper New Zealand English ('kai' for food). Slang isn’t just about words; it’s a snapshot of cultural exchange. I love spotting these differences—it’s like decoding secret clubhouse rules wherever you go.
Social media has practically birthed its own dialect, and some of these slang terms have seeped into everyday English in the wildest ways. Take 'simp,' for example—it blew up on platforms like TikTok and Twitter, originally mocking guys who put women on a pedestal, but now it’s tossed around for anyone overly eager. Then there’s 'ghosting,' which started as a dating term but became mainstream thanks to Twitter threads and Reddit rants about vanished friends. Even 'yeet' went from a Vine-era throwaway joke to a verb for hurling anything with chaotic energy.
What’s fascinating is how fast these words evolve. 'Sus' started in gaming communities ('Among Us' turned it into a cultural staple), but now it’s shorthand for anything shady. Platforms like Tumblr gave us 'stan' (from Eminem’s song) to describe obsessive fandom, and Instagram turned 'flex' into a boastful display. The internet’s knack for remixing language means half these terms feel timeless, even if they were niche memes just a year ago.
Teen slang evolves at lightning speed, and honestly, keeping up feels like chasing a meme-fueled tornado. Lately, 'rizz' has been everywhere—it’s all about charisma, especially in flirting. Like, 'He’s got major rizz' means someone’s effortlessly smooth. Then there’s 'skibidi,' which started from a silly YouTube meme but morphed into a catch-all for anything chaotic or absurd. Teens drop it like confetti: 'That test was skibidi.' 'Gyatt' is another one, usually paired with 'damn' to express shock (often at someone’s curves, thanks to TikTok).
But slang isn’t just words; it’s cultural shorthand. 'Fanum tax' blew up from a streamer who kept stealing his friend Fanum’s food—now it’s code for snatching something. And 'sigma'? That’s the new 'alpha,' describing someone who’s coolly independent. The funniest part? Half these phrases sound like nonsense to adults, which is probably the point. It’s like teens created their own dialect to vibe in secret while the rest of us scratch our heads.
