      Have you had your first wave of Gen Alpha trends and slang confuse you yet?

        Not the person you’re replying to, but in the same boat, and I for one dipped out at “yeet” and “yoink”

          Wait, yoink? Like to snatch something up? That’s at least 30 years old from the Simpsons.

          Not a gen Z but I’m actually a fan of both of those words. It’s like a forceful put or get.

            It’s like a forceful put or get.

            Now I kind-of want HTTP verbs for those.

            YEET /api/v1/submit HTTP/1.1
            Host: example.com
            User-Agent: curl/8.6.0
            Accept: */*
            Content-Type: application/json
            
            ...
            
            YOINK /api/v1/list HTTP/1.1
            Host: example.com
            User-Agent: curl/8.6.0

              Not the same verbs, and specific to Emacs, but I’m kind of sad cutting and pasting won over killing and yanking

            Well you know, I grew up in a rural, culturally lagged area, the slang didn’t really catch up until tiktok

        Im 27, very first birth year for gen z. And I’m a teacher and this is a multiple times a day occurrence. Also, them laughing at my slang terms that I don’t even realise are slang as I’m using them. And the scary bit is, some of them are 18-20, so still firmly gen z too.
