    I can just imagine him holding his laughter back for this one. Good job

    Nothing against him or this interview, but I will forever be the old man yells at clouds image over this “gen z slang” bullshit. Not too long ago we were ghetto and ostracized for talking like this. Forever noticing.

  3. These videos are usually so cringe, but this one was good! He did great, it all sounds natural. Hilarious that you can see him trying not to laugh at times.

    This is just AAVE and a solid chunk of the slang created in that video was created by black millennials

    Its not Gen Z slang, its AAVE. Black Americans are being erased and its now called “Gen Z slang”

  6. One of the most handsome charming men in Hollywood history is fully embracing his embarrassing dad era and making it effortless.

  7. There were like 3 certified Gen-Z isms and the rest are 40 year-old slangs that Gen-Z and Millennials think they invented

    This was good! You can tell how Ryan’s trying to hold off laughing. And I hate how I understood this convo btw.

    Love this vibe so much. A pop culture sub that’s actually moderated, actually diverse, and not full of weird incel energy is rare as hell 😂

    Lowkey excited for the Sip & Spill threads, that’s exactly the kind of structure I need or I’ll just lurk forever.

  10. Can we plz for the love of God stop calling this Gen Z slang? There’s been plenty of articles and notes about AAVE/lgbtq- black ballroom lingo being appropriated and cosplayed.

    If Ryan understood more of what he was saying, he’d definitely be cracking up

    Older generations, remember that using their slang causes it to not be cool anymore and act appropriately until it dies

    Most of this “Gen Z Slang” originated in Black ballroom culture or AAVE decades ago. Mainstream and corporate culture are just late adopters. These were used in Black communities long before the 2010s, but once they hit the suburbs and the commercial ads, they were considered “dead.” AAVE and young Black people are constantly innovating, and specific phrasings and the slang being said now likely won’t be the “new” slang adopted by the general public until the mid-2030s.
