Absolutely no one sane would think anon is anything less than a monster cock chad for this. Anon’s fictional place of work is full of lamers.

"Lamers"?!? What are you, like 90 years old?

[–] lessthanluigi@lemmy.sdf.org 39 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I guess cringeheads would be more hip and funky with the young cool cats

I will not be taking questions on how I recognise the extreme agedness of your terminology.

Don't be a jive turkey fool, lad. Just be groovy about it and don't mellow the poor fellow's swing.

Taxi Driver, And Justice For All, Undergrads, Fritz The Cat, and this one dude who I saw who talked and looked like the pimp in Taxi Driver but was fatter and had sorta Tripp Pants. Seattle's wild dude

EDIT: We also gotta bring hip back. In certain old movies, it sounds like fresh, genuine slang. Not like nowadays where it sounds like someone who is out of touch. Must be tone and context.

the pimp in Taxi Driver

That's Harvey Keitel!

Lol that's like AOL-era slang. I used to boot the lamers offline with punterz.

I'm so fucking old.

This comment is so funny to me, because it never would have occurred to me, but it's probably the most likely
