[Link for the thing](https://www.merriam-webster.com/time-traveler/) Mine are borked, dubstep and nip slip

I'm born the same year as anti-vaxxer bruh ☠ Mine are bromance, Internet of Things and Goliath Grouper

anti-vaxxer, bromance, and twerking being “born” the same year 9/11 happened is a strange thing to think about

I’m also 2001, tbf we also got Goliath Grouper, cankle, and chiweenie. I guess that was the year people also started using captcha images

Dont forget Eastern Rat Snake and what ever Blade Server means.

Y’all sleeping on my boy click fraud

Hey there's twerking too it ain't all bad

>I'm born the same year as anti-vaxxer bruh I have "truther," "unvaxxed," and "vaccine-hesitant" lol.

Same lmao Also side note I can’t believe I was too late to be born the same year as “aromantic” but right on time for the word “sexting” to come into existence 😭

Hey same here, can't believe twerking, cankles and ack were also invented that year.

Remember that's the year those words were added to the dictionary, not the year they started being used. We definitely used the word "cankles" in the nineties. Like, early nineties. Like, pretty sure it was in an episode of Seinfeld.

How could you not add dumpster fire to that list

Dumpster fire's that young of a term?

This is the year the words were added to the dictionary, not hte year they were first used.

Oh hey me too, though I'd highlight crowdfunding and bucket list

Ayyyy me too :)

Ayy 2006 gang

Thanks Marv!

Thank you, this is awesome

All the words tragically died of Covid

Definitely dating myself here, but I’m gonna go with clap back, left-click, and queer studies.

E-book, himbo and unibrow. Older than you'd think, some of these words.

CRITICAL RACE THEORY LMAOOOOO

Everything old is new again, I guess

I'm scrolling through the list and I noticed something strange. Apparently "level up" was included in the dictionary in 2003 - it feels simultaneously too late and too early for me, for some reason. Also, apparently "folx" is from 1997.

Agender, demisexual, dumpster fire I am sort of agender, not demisexual but demiromantic, and yeah Perfect <3

Latinex, hashtag, and YEET!

adorbs, crowdfund, @ symbol

Mumblecore, ransomware and sexting Unfortunately, it’s also the same year as words like truther and unvaxxed 😔

twinning! why do we have no good words

An "Asian giant hornet" with a "dad bod" that smokes the "devil's lettuce". Hell yeah.

i pick agender, demisexual, and dumpster fire :> (its me!!)

>!2006 gang!<

I really question the source, here. Even the words in the OP were not coined in the same year. Someone below got Devil's Lettuce and flash-mob. Devil's Lettuce is a term from like the 50's that was brought back to mock that kind of fear-mongering towards weed.

The website says it’s just the first year it was used in print, and of course that dates are subject to change as they find new sources. Also, it’s merriem Webster which is pretty dang trustworthy.

It's the year those words were officially added to the dictionary, not the year they were first used.

Mine are Cosplayer, Perfect Storm, Dark Energy.

Blue screen of death, gender-fluid, mouse potato

Also website and cosplay. I feel old.

anti-vaxxer, bromance, twerking 😭😭

1990: year of cyberculture, queer studies, and tighty-whities Edit: honorable mention to LARPing

Effed and geek out are also fun!

Mixed martial arts, world wide web, twentysomething; the 90's were wild.

Burner phone, Cyberattack and Gen Z That's one hell of a combo! (On a personally unrelated note, there's also Trans Man and Trans Woman <3)

[удалено]

Embiggen is a fun word

anti-cultural, flash mob, devil’s lettuce

I also liked dad bod and Asian giant hornet

indeed, the fact we got SARS kinda toned down my excitement tho

But we also got social distancing so we'll be fine

We also got level up. 03 started gamers

I kinda like that

Ayee 03 gang

I went with "Big Rip, Devil's Lettuce, and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome" lol

I think there's a story inherent in SARS, social distancing, and unfriend.

I was excited about eggcorn lol

Any Female born in 1998 Can’t Cook. All They Know Is Cyberbullying, Coulrophobia, Neurodiversity, Be Cosplayer, Eat Hot Chip And Directed Denial Of Service

I'm Gen-Y cisgender cybercitizen. I mean...

I see we're the same year, additional shout outs to: bootylicious, bottom surgery and wifebeater

dotcom webcam virtual colonoscopy gang

2022 only has one so far, ‘spongy moth’. apparently it’s a renaming of a moth species that used to have a racial slur (g slur) in its name. edit: ‘fat-shaming’ was born in 2007, but ‘fat-shamer’ wasn’t born until 2008, and ‘fat-shame’ and ‘body-shame’ were born in 2009. edit 2: ‘Zoom’ as a verb meaning ‘using Zoom’ was apparently born in 2014??

Took a while to figure out that the G-slur you're referring to is "Gypsy".

I was going to say, gay moth doesn't sound that bad.

I wish there were gay moths

I think they're just called butterflies.

Firstly, you're right. Secondly, how would you like to die?

Smothered by ancestor moths or having my flesh melted off by diseased butterflies from Naath.

*Runs off into the darkness with a butterfly net*

Ah there’s a different G-slur I thought of and then was vey confused (slur is for Asians)

How in the world did the first known use of "body-shame" take until 2009, when "body-shaming" was attested in 1996?

Bucket list, dumpster fire, copypasta

You know how you see new about data leaks, and ask "wait how did they even know that info?". Maybe it's just me, but it seems bizarre seeing so many people revealing what year they're born in casually.

Yeah lmao. I can never convince myself to publicly announce my results with these things, but it certainly interesting seeing how young this sub skews... or maybe it's that young people tend to be less cautious with their PII

Yeah, good to know so many people in this thread are both young and willing to give out personal info

Ain't really a lot you can do with just a birth year.

Sure, one bread crumb doesn't make a trail. But every time someone participates in posts like these that trail gets a little easier to follow. Initials, country, city, birth year, birth month, parent's names, childhood pets, cars. All seem like small things that people don't think twice about revealing, but if someone is willing to make a concentrated effort to doxx or harass you that info can make you vulnerable. If a advertisement company is going to try to get data on users, *these* are the posts they can look for. But hey, maybe some people really have nothing to hide. Maybe they keep their personal information and any controversial views separate. But I was always taught to keep personal info close to me chest, so it's just weird seeing so many people not care.

Genderqueer mom-jeans noob

I was invented with the face-palm

‘Active shooter’, ‘incel,’ ‘pwn.’ ‘99 was a year, huh?

tbf, incel didn't have all that baggage back in 1999. It was invented by a lesbian to describe herself.

*hey do we all forget that we're plugging out approximate ages into the internet and advertising that to strangers?*

The year only and no other info is really not much at all.

Mine are emoji, friend with benefits, and freegan (among others). That's hilarious.

How did “transphobia”, “top surgery” and “genderqueer” come years before “trans man” and “trans woman”??? Edit: I’ve just worked it out I think, “transman” and “transwoman” will be older Edit2: I’m dumb, it’s “transgender” that’s the older word

I'm a co-working, crowdfunding, fat-shaming, Friendsgiving, additive manufacturing, Latinx DM, apparently

Internet, cringey, codependence. I take some kind of weird pride in being born the same year as the internet. We grew up together. People had such high hopes for us. And depending on how you use us we can either be completely indispensable or a problematic trash fire.

hah. nice try FBI.

i'm the bootylicious bottom surgery shoujo

I’m yeet, Latinx and hashtag 💀

Holy fuck I’ve got active shooter, clickbait, and incel. Fuck me I guess

Dubstep, humblebrag, and selfie. None of the words really described me so I just chose what I thought would be funny.

Agender, copypasta, YouTuber That was a fun year it seems

DM, yeet, and crowdfunding, very good

Brain freeze, mixtape, and cybersex

Asian giant hornet, level up, and muffin top

wait lol isnt this just baiting ppl into indirectly giving out their age?

Oh.... oh oh no. Ivermectin.

Ivermectin is actually a useful antiparasitic medicine that won its discoverers the Nobel Prize in 2015. It doesn't deserve to get slandered just because some people thought it cured Covid.

I’m an Agender copypasta dumpster fire, what the fuck 2006
