        Back in my day, we just said sophisticated things like stfu and kys and fu and git gut and get pnwed noob and ez pez. But of course these young people have to make up weird abbreviations.

    Stfu - Shut the fuck up Syfm - shut your fucking mouth Sybau - shut your bitch ass up

    I only knew the first but could extrapolate to the second. The third stumped me, so I looked it up x.x

      There used to be a reason to do that. We did it because there were limits to text length and you didn’t want to get charged for multiple texts. Also writing on keypads was a pain. I don’t understand why anyone still does it today, especially people who were not texting back in those days.

        It’s gotten far, far worse. There’s always been an online lingo like this from way back in chat groups or apps like AIM or IRC, but texting shorthand when we had phone keypads and limited texting was way more legible. We shortened the word count more than the letter count and autocomplete wasn’t a thing. Now the shorthand is completely unnecessary and has become more of a stylistic choice than a necessity. I don’t mind it, but when coupled with generational slang it can become indecipherable.

    Are we pluralizing “slang” wrong for a reason?
