    What is internet slang you use? What is internet slang you hate?

    I, for one, HATE "MOOD, BIG MOOD, GIANT MOOD" it pisses me off, but I use lol, lmfao, omg and all that stuff, too. Sometimes, I also use ripperoni.
     
    I use LOL, OMG and stuff, of course. IKR is one I'm particularly fond of. I use "I can't even" (is that internet slang, or just millennial slang?). I like "yeet", but I don't get to use it very much. How often do you really have the opportunity to yeet things in your daily life?

    I really hate the term "cringey" and variations, because it just seems to mainly be used as a way to shame people for saying/doing something you don't like without giving any objective criticism. (If I use it, it's to describe myself and/or other people who "reclaim" the term for themselves, with the tone of "I don't care if I'm 'cringey'".)

    Also,
    Nobody:
    Me:     The "nobody:" meme is a double negative, it should be "everybody:" instead, because if it's "nobody: *silence*" then that would mean nobody was being quiet

    Besides the classic abbreviations like LOL, LMFAO, PICNIC and the like, I tend to use things like bork, grok, sudo verb this, leet, noob, vidya and the like. Also, baby-speak endearing terms like snek, smol etc. And "foo energy".
     
    I forgot to mention it, but I actually love...I don't know the name for this way of speaking, but doggo, bork, "you did me a (noun)", snek, etc. Particularly "snek" - my mom and I pretty much say it at least once every time we talk about snakes. :,D

    Oh! Also "boop". I didn't know this word until a while ago, and I was pleased to find out that I'm not the only one who gets the urge to do that to cute animals.

    Doggo has become so commonplace in my family, that my mum and I called a dog on the train a "cute doggo" out loud. Other than that, a lot of twitch slang, "yikes" "yeet" "oof" "esketit" and the like are quite common for me to come out with. Pewdiepie recently made me start calling things "dummy dums" when they don't go the way I want them to. And as far as my cat is concerned, his name may as well be every known expletive under the sun because I rarely call him by his actual name.
