Every cohort of kids will have their slang and in-jokey vocabulary, a very small part of which will be entered permanently into the lexicon. I'd like to nominate "rizz" as this generation's contribution.

Man, rizz is the new yeet, and both belong on the pedestal of excellent slang.

Im finna yeet rizz into heavy rotation

skibidi [adj.]

- nonsense (derogatory)

That's my pick.

Nah, that one is going to be emblematic of this period. In 2035 they're going to look back at videos from 2024 and hear all the skibidi and cringe the same way we do looking back at 2006 and hearing "FAIL!" every other word.
