A third of those predate gen z. The complete nonsense words are definitely on them, though.

    But isn't OPP other people's.... property or has that changed since Naughty by Nature taught us all what it meant?

    No, it just shouldn't be capitalized. It's short for "operative" and usually refers to somebody you think is (or jokingly think is) working for/with the cops or feds.

    It's "Opp," not OPP

    As a younger millenial I gotta say some of these are ours. We were calling things "extra" since like '06. Vibe is as old as the hippies, and mid is weed slang from like the early 2000s.

    I seem to recall when they were translating "grunge" slang and it was also mostly bullshit not actually used.

    I swear to god half of the slang from memes like this is just aspirational. Pretty fetch imo.

    I'm a very late millennial, borderline Gen Z, and even I feel like all my slang knowledge is outdated.

    Opp? How can I explain it? Take it frame by frame it, to have y'all all jumping, shouting, saying it? O is for other, P is for people, scratch your temple, because the last P? Well that's not so simple..

    I think 'mid' means middle or mid-grade weed, which means a similar thing as 'mediocre' like the chart says.
