MODERATORS
it's mostly just internet lingo. English is not my native language either and I sometimes have the opposite problem: I know/use the internet definition/meaning but not the "official" one lol
Urban Dictionary is your friend in such cases, that's where I usually go for stuff like this
Every time I have to get to UD, though:
understandable, but tbh my terminally online brain finds it funny and sometimes genuinely interesting what kind of bs ppl come up with
Spend more time around people under 25, while they're around other people who are also under that age. I hear it a lot.
Edit: To be clear, I'm not even under 25. Just spend a lot of time with people who are. Makes you feel old when younger folks 'code-switch' and use different language choices with you...
one could call that an "oof moment" lol
but tbh I will probably feel the same when I have to talk with the "skibbidy toilet" generation (aka gen alpha) in the future
(I only recently found out what that even is 💀)
Im kinda an english native depending on definition but for a very long time i mainly used it on the internet so sometimes i use too many contractions and slang with people who are not as good with it which can lead to confusion.
