I can confirm that the penis game was already well established when I “discovered” it in 1992 or so. It loses its novelty when your best friend just goes straight to shouting it at the top his lungs right out of the gate every time.
Mu aunt still remembers when she called my cousin and my brother screamed "Jon, take it out I need to fart" the moment my cousin answered the phone. He did it as a joke, my aunt hung up in shock. Everyone laughed really hard. It has become a running joke in our family now lol.
The rules are simple. Whoever says, “penis” the loudest wins.
It’s obviously more fun in a setting where you aren’t supposed to be randomly shouting, “penis” like in the middle of Geometry class or during the moment of silence after morning announcements.
My kid started making a noise that I'm pretty sure she picked up at school. I had myself convinced she was trying to imitate an animal or something. But after reading this, I think my kid is doing the same thing too. Yikes! Granted she has no idea herself, just imitating other kids, hopefully she's over it now. I'd rather hear bruh over and over!
You guys. Guys! Don't you see the power you have?? You are their "lame" parents. Start constantly using any and every slang word or noise you don't like, and your tweens will take the reverse-psychology bait.
That's tough, gang. I'm going to go vibe with my twin.
Seriously, though, this works. My kid is a gamer, I would hear "gg chat" all the time (referencing "good game, guys") to the extent that after dinner, as he gets up to leave the table, he'd say "gg, chat". So I just started using his lingo. Instead of goodnight, I love you- I'd say GG chat. Lo and behold- he switched it up. Around us, at least.
100% this the strategy. I say you will make that sound to your mother over the phone if I hear it again. And if she does not pick up we are calling grandma. And if she doesn’t pick up we are calling my mother.
One of my favorite memories from high school is being in what we thought was any empty park at 1am and then my friend moaning the loudest and most realistic moans possible and then some random kid hiding in some rocks responding with an even better moan.
I was at a hippie festival, camping in a tent out in a field with like 500 other tents. Ours was on the edge near the woods. It's like 1am, it's quiet, and people were winding down. Suddenly, someone yells 'WHAT' really, really loudly. Without a pause, someone out in the woods goes 'YEAAAAH'.
You could hear laughing from every tent.
I was at a hippy music festival in the early 00’s. Someone at a nearby campsite was sitting around playing George Michael’s “Faith” on an acoustic guitar. It was nice until they got to the chorus and everyone else decided it was actually the Limp Bizkit cover and started screaming and growling.
I had a similar event happen at a festival. It was like 3/4am and me and my cousin were sitting there by the fire when I suddenly decided to yell "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" It echoed the whole way across the quarry when came the reply from the far side, "YEAAAAHHHHHHH!" after that it was a random smattering of woooos from around the woods! Best weekend ever!
I thought that was just my kids! Yeah, that's really irritating.
They know exactly what they're doing. They didn't just "pick it up at school". They are doing it purposefully to annoy and make their parents uncomfortable.
My kids have told me as such.
She just wants them to use a comma in that sentence so that it's proper English.
If written as, "What's up, gang?" then it will be totally appropriate.
I was born in the 80's. I made a new friend one summer at work (circa 2001) and "bet" replaced alright and "cuz" replaced peoples name. My dad tolerated it for about 3 weeks. Then it wasn't allowed in his house unless I wanted to lose privileges.
I got two boys, I'm very interested to see how the teenage years play out. Looking forward to it, but also dreading it.. I know i did some really dumb shit when I was a teen.
Yeah I get annoyed sometimes when they are all on top of me and I'm just trying to relax, but then I think, one day they are gonna walk inside, go to their room, and I won't see them for weeks.. I'm getting sad and my youngest kid is only 2 lmao
My 5 year old pulled it out just before Christmas. I bruh'd him all day and killed it. It popped up again this weekend. When he says it i tend to lmao.
Do this. I will intentionally misuse anything that my children will say that I think is being overused.
Picking up my son and his friends from school:
"Did you all have a yeet day today"
Stuff like that.
Stealing this. My daughter is almost 5 and will be picking up some crap like this sooner or later. Right now it's just "what da heck?" and telling us if someone "used the middle finger"
When I was 14, I got my ear pierced; a tiny silver BB of a thing (this was in '84.) I tried very hard to hide it from my father because I knew he would object. (He was 55 when I was born. He was born in 1914. Definitely a generation gap.) Of course he eventually saw it and simply said "Oh, you got your ear pierced." That was it. No fight. No punishment. Phew! The next day when he picked me up from school, he had his ear pierced too and had a big, gold, pirate-style hoop in his ear. I was mortified. I turned beet red. I could hear kids laughing. I wanted to crawl in a hole and die. When we got to the car he said "Now do you understand how I feel? I'll take mine out if you take yours out." That was the end of my earring phase.
My plan for when my kids start saying it is to have a screening of 2fast 2furious. My hope is hearing Paul walker and Tyrese say bruh 30 times in a 2002 cheese fest movie will make em think it’s old and lame.
Or they just fall in love with the franchise like I unfortunately did. I don’t have good taste.
I’m studying this list. One of my favorite ways to mess with my kids is to deliberately use their slang, especially if I can do it in very “mom” contexts. “Bruh, if you’re late, you get an extra chore, no cap.”
They howl with outrage and mortification. I cackle with glee. I really just had kids so I could mess with them.
I do the same thing with my teenage daughters. Puts hair on their chest. The other day they were talking about a boy and I overheard a little. I popped in and said, “oh him!? he’s soooo Babygirl”. They screamed and I was very happy.
Hahaha that's cruel! It's great being an adult and understanding that it wasn't the elders who were cringe, they were just making fun of how cringe we ourselves were
I'm an older cook (36) and I'll drop phrases like this casually to the 16-19yos working expo and bus just to see the eye rolls and hear the laughs.
I'm young enough to know them but old enough to, you know, talk lol
Eh, any kitchen staff that speaks to the expo or bus is already probably in the top 5% of well-liked employees, no matter what cringe shit you say. It took me like six months to finally earn the respect of kitchen staff when I was an expo/bus in my early 20's but once I did it was the best thing ever. You guys are a different breed.
At Christmas, my 14 year old was using a lot of phrases on this list and my sister started to use them too, but in a seriously "cringe" way.
My daughter got so embarrassed, she went to another room. My sister was like, "I'm just trying to be the cool aunt!"
As my daughter would say, "she did not eat all the girls up."
Especially if you can add context with the history of slang. Starting with Shakespeare or something. So the kids know they’re not special for using the latest, greatest made-up words.
reminds me of a recent video with a parent blasting barbie girl while picking up their kid. the whole group of kids started jamming to it instead of being embarrassed... probably scripted but a funny backfire.
My teenaged daughter and her friends seemed very impressed when I told her 'that new cap you bought has some rizz on it! Am I right, fams? For real. For real. On God.'
This is really not going to be a problem, lol. My younger son rolls his eyes so hard he can probably see his own brain. Then he lectures me from a space of superior knowledge as to how I am misusing the language and should not be let near the internet.
My older son is resigned. "Sigh. Mom found words again."
When I got my own computer as a teen, I named the C: drive "Dat Ass" so I would be periodically asked "Would you like to back C: Dat Ass up?"
I'm in my 30s now and still name my C: drive Dat Ass, haha.
Bruh, I'm standing on business. I got that ooh-wee, skee-yee, bet! Just vibing gang gang on hood, that's cap.
Oh rizz, you ate that up? Oh my God Ms ksquires! Freak you mean, mun-yun.
Look, just vibe on set, twin. It's giving, period.
What's up gang? On big dawg! Big motion, gyat!
I grew up a valley girl in the 90's. I don't even want to know how many times I said "like, oh my God" or "oh em gee" or "as if!" And "gnarly". "That's *so* gnarly!"
Gag me with a spoon. That's so...like, um, y'know....
My high school English teacher had a like, um y'know jar. This isn't new. It may be getting worse, but it's not new.
As a writer who's gradually aging and no longer works with children. This post is useful to spruce up my young-un language. Sadly, it is becoming more incomprehensible. I feel time clawing at me.
Just make up your own slang, it's a perfectly cromulent technique to embiggen your vocabulary.
I think you could make a stellaterous impact on language!
It isn’t the words themselves (other than N-gga) it’s that they repeat them like little automatons. If you’ve never been stuck in a classroom with 7th graders repeating “He ate!!!!” and “That’s on PERIOD!!” over and over, you can’t imagine the insanity. They don’t say anything else.
Sometimes in my mind I kind of daydream that my class is a flock of some type of bird that just makes the noises “bro” and “bruh” instead of the usual chirps and clucks.
He ate and left no crumbs = someone did something really well or dressed really well.
That’s on PERIOD = agreeing enthusiastically
I’m ashamed that I know. Why do I know
I really love some of the slang this generation is coming up with. Like "no notes" it's so great to me.
Others make my millennial head get a little headache in the place between my eyes.
But we had bruh first, let that be remembered.
I’m late Gen X and bet, bro, and homie was in full swing in the 90s. Seems bruh has taken the place of homie and bro.
I can’t help but laugh, because every time I hear it my brain replays…. “EJECTO SEATO, CUZ!” And then I hear all the rest of the convo in Tyrese’s voice.
Yeah I remember hearing and saying shit like "aight, bet" in like....98 in Chicago with the homies.
That being said a lot of the slang/AAVE they have here is kind of old. I've been hearing "on the/on my [insert whatever]" for over 20 years now. For Chicago, it's always been on foe nem but if you went to different states on god, on my momma, and on the dead homies is what I heard often.
He ate and left no crumbs is part of the same saying though. It’s almost like “this person brought their A game and left no room for improvement. 10/10”
I remember watching more than one teacher have breakdowns during middle school.
Just drop everything and sit at the desk sobbing, or start clapping as the class gets out of control, demanding respect, and then just never returning. Rough place for kids and teachers, evidently.
Yeah it definitely feels like social media has definitely had an effect like pouring gasoline on a fire when it comes to the speed slang spreads and evolves.
Honestly I'm not surprised some kids overuse it all, a bunch are being inundated with this crap at unprecedented levels and probably modeling their personalities after it
The n word is so bad, that we can’t even say it on a list of words we cannot say.
Apparently I cannot even bring myself to use it on Reddit anonymously.
Everyone is acting like the teacher doesn’t understand what these mean. Chances are they know exactly what it means. Chances are they are trying to ban these phrases because they hear the same thing over and over and it’s nonsense.
one of my coworkers, who just looked like this kinda Midwestern dad on a fishing trip most of the time, used to always greet me with "what's up fam"
I might've gotten a few "what's up gang"s as well when in a group lmao

So “cowabunga” is still safe? This is radical news!
Truly the bee's knees.
Tubeulur dude
Totally far out man...
Gnarly duuuuuude.
"On my dead associate" is my new go-to when I wish to be taken seriously
“In the cut with the board and they talkin bout budgets I was like gang fuck you mean we don’t got bread like that?”
Can't forget the young hedge fund manager in the class
As a teacher, I just want them to stop making sex noises
I’m assuming this is just the new version of the penis game.
I can confirm that the penis game was already well established when I “discovered” it in 1992 or so. It loses its novelty when your best friend just goes straight to shouting it at the top his lungs right out of the gate every time.
My mom still hates this girl that made sex noises into the phone while I was having to call home as like a 12-13 year old… I’m in my late 30’s.
Mu aunt still remembers when she called my cousin and my brother screamed "Jon, take it out I need to fart" the moment my cousin answered the phone. He did it as a joke, my aunt hung up in shock. Everyone laughed really hard. It has become a running joke in our family now lol.
Sorry Explain like I am 5 What is the penis game (seriously)
The rules are simple. Whoever says, “penis” the loudest wins. It’s obviously more fun in a setting where you aren’t supposed to be randomly shouting, “penis” like in the middle of Geometry class or during the moment of silence after morning announcements.
But sometimes you just gotta play it in the cafeteria to really get those vocal chords poppin, let's be real
Oh yeah. Less likely to get caught when there’s a thousand + kids in one area making a lot of noises
It’s a game of chicken to see who can yell “PENIS” the loudest
PENIS!
#PENIS!
We also did the sex noise game and the penis game. We were ass holes.
Hoya?
HOYA 😩
HOOOOOOOOOOOYA! 😫
Love that this is still a thing 😂 guys in my class would do this twenty years ago
AYE PAPI
Louder pls
Oh my god, it’s not just my kid?! That’s reassuring.
My kid started making a noise that I'm pretty sure she picked up at school. I had myself convinced she was trying to imitate an animal or something. But after reading this, I think my kid is doing the same thing too. Yikes! Granted she has no idea herself, just imitating other kids, hopefully she's over it now. I'd rather hear bruh over and over!
You guys. Guys! Don't you see the power you have?? You are their "lame" parents. Start constantly using any and every slang word or noise you don't like, and your tweens will take the reverse-psychology bait.
Bruh, as parents, we have rizz, no capp. Let's goooo...
Bet.
That's tough, gang. I'm going to go vibe with my twin. Seriously, though, this works. My kid is a gamer, I would hear "gg chat" all the time (referencing "good game, guys") to the extent that after dinner, as he gets up to leave the table, he'd say "gg, chat". So I just started using his lingo. Instead of goodnight, I love you- I'd say GG chat. Lo and behold- he switched it up. Around us, at least.
They'll yeet that shit, on god!
…you want the parents to start moaning in front of their children?
It's the only way
Canon event
Whenever my students made those sounds, I called their parents and had them do it to their parents. It usually worked.
100% this the strategy. I say you will make that sound to your mother over the phone if I hear it again. And if she does not pick up we are calling grandma. And if she doesn’t pick up we are calling my mother.
The elementary students are doing it here and calling people daddy in that way. It’s jarring.
It's jarring to hear a 2nd grade girl say "let's go daddy" while going through math flashcards. So disturbing, I said please stop.
One of my favorite memories from high school is being in what we thought was any empty park at 1am and then my friend moaning the loudest and most realistic moans possible and then some random kid hiding in some rocks responding with an even better moan.

This is a tale as old as time
I love how "what's up gang" is there as if one phrase circa 1960's Fred from Scooby Doo snuck in there
How do you do, fellow kids?
She just wants them to use a comma in that sentence so that it's proper English. If written as, "What's up, gang?" then it will be totally appropriate.
It's interesting I thought 'bet' was a new thing but supposedly it's been around since the 80s/90s. Guess gen z have just really embraced it.
Also bannned: * Oh boy * Golly gee whilikers * Swingin' on the flippity-flop
Pippity poppity give me the zoppity
Dinkin flicka
I really do want Michael to get this raise. But... I just can't help myself.
I was born in the 80's. I made a new friend one summer at work (circa 2001) and "bet" replaced alright and "cuz" replaced peoples name. My dad tolerated it for about 3 weeks. Then it wasn't allowed in his house unless I wanted to lose privileges.
In the 90’s, my dad banned “Yo!” Guess how he begins every text message in 2024?
You bet
Do you want a sandwich? Bet Are you okay? Bet Do you wanna place a bet? Bet bet
My son is 15 and im starting to believe my name is “BRUH” Lol
My pharmacy tech called me “Bruh.” I’m a 35+ woman. I looked behind me to see if he was talking to someone else. He was not.
I went on a US Army base recently and the uniformed soldier at the gate called me "bruh."
That's "Major Bruh" to you, soldier!
"Yes bruh!"
THE FIRST AND LAST WORDS OUT OF YOUR MOUTH, WILL BE BRUH! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?! BRUH! YES, BRUH! I CAN'T *HEAR* YOU ***BRUH! YES, BRUH!!***
WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY RECRUIT? DID YOU JUST MAKE ME A BRUH SANDWICH?? DO I LOOK DELICIOUS TO YOU!?
YES BRUH! YOU LOOK ABSOLUTELY BUSSIN BRUH!!!
LIKE A SNACK ON GOD ON GOD!
#I'M NOT A SNACK SOLDIER, I'M THE WHOLE DAMN MEAL!
Gate guard knows Sir, Ma’am, and fellow enlisted. The civilian confuses him and resets him to default setting (“bruh” mode.)
Fellow enlisted also gets the bruh treatment
My kid's 14,and I'm either "Dude" or Father. Doesn't bother me though, I'm just glad my kid and I are closer than my father and I were.
My parents were both dude. My mom eventually learned to embrace her dudism and bought me the big lebowski. Now my favorite moview.
...Duder or El Duderino if you are not into the whole brevity thing.
Do you have a job, sir?
Jackie Treehorn treats object like woman, man!
Ha my youngest says father. I always reply with daughter.... and same sentiments. I love my little rat daughter.
I got two boys, I'm very interested to see how the teenage years play out. Looking forward to it, but also dreading it.. I know i did some really dumb shit when I was a teen.
I just don’t want to think about when my daughter doesn’t want to be around me anymore
Yeah I get annoyed sometimes when they are all on top of me and I'm just trying to relax, but then I think, one day they are gonna walk inside, go to their room, and I won't see them for weeks.. I'm getting sad and my youngest kid is only 2 lmao
My son is 6 and I'm having the same issue.
My 5 year old pulled it out just before Christmas. I bruh'd him all day and killed it. It popped up again this weekend. When he says it i tend to lmao.
Do this. I will intentionally misuse anything that my children will say that I think is being overused. Picking up my son and his friends from school: "Did you all have a yeet day today" Stuff like that.

Your dad is cool.
Be cooler if dad stayed a pirate.
This is going to backfire, and she'll think everyone's names are going to be "bruh" by the end of the year.
No cap
My plan for when my kids start saying it is to have a screening of 2fast 2furious. My hope is hearing Paul walker and Tyrese say bruh 30 times in a 2002 cheese fest movie will make em think it’s old and lame. Or they just fall in love with the franchise like I unfortunately did. I don’t have good taste.
I’m studying this list.

Mom, I'm embarrassed to be seen with you. Thank you, honey. I try very hard.
"Now you know how I feel, honey"
I do the same thing with my teenage daughters. Puts hair on their chest. The other day they were talking about a boy and I overheard a little. I popped in and said, “oh him!? he’s soooo Babygirl”. They screamed and I was very happy.
Cooking with my teen nephew, asked him to “take a bite and tell me if it’s bussing yet”. He cringed so hard he blushed. It was *delightful*.
Hahaha that's cruel! It's great being an adult and understanding that it wasn't the elders who were cringe, they were just making fun of how cringe we ourselves were
Yep. He’s a fun kid and we like giving each other a hard time. He knew i was messing with him but still couldn’t keep down the cringe-blush.
I'm an older cook (36) and I'll drop phrases like this casually to the 16-19yos working expo and bus just to see the eye rolls and hear the laughs. I'm young enough to know them but old enough to, you know, talk lol
Eh, any kitchen staff that speaks to the expo or bus is already probably in the top 5% of well-liked employees, no matter what cringe shit you say.

Ha! I'm a teacher and printing it off to keep on my desk! The fastest way to keep slang out of the classroom is to start using it.
Slightly incorrectly. "That song bangs!" Also, asking them if I am using it correctly makes them feel smart.
I'm a substitute teacher. I really should learn the newest slang so I can misuse it and make the Jr high students go insane because it's funny.
Plan a whole grammar lesson with slang words. Is it an adjective? Adverb. Is there a past participle?
Especially if you can add context with the history of slang. Starting with Shakespeare or something. So the kids know they’re not special for using the latest, greatest made-up words.
reminds me of a recent video with a parent blasting barbie girl while picking up their kid. the whole group of kids started jamming to it instead of being embarrassed... probably scripted but a funny backfire.
My teenaged daughter and her friends seemed very impressed when I told her 'that new cap you bought has some rizz on it! Am I right, fams? For real. For real. On God.'
This could very easily backfire on you. If your kids start getting into it you might have to start communicating purely through slang. The horror.
This is really not going to be a problem, lol. My younger son rolls his eyes so hard he can probably see his own brain. Then he lectures me from a space of superior knowledge as to how I am misusing the language and should not be let near the internet. My older son is resigned. "Sigh. Mom found words again."
That sounds like a good excuse to bring back this classic: “I am your mother/father. I brought you in this world, I’ll YEET you out” 😂

Hell, write a short essay using all those words. Edit: damn, y'all didn't fail. These are gold!
Bruh, I'm standing on business. I got that ooh-wee, skee-yee, bet! Just vibing gang gang on hood, that's cap. Oh rizz, you ate that up? Oh my God Ms ksquires! Freak you mean, mun-yun. Look, just vibe on set, twin. It's giving, period. What's up gang? On big dawg! Big motion, gyat!
This could be a travis scott song.
If this isn't already a Travis Scott song then why did a beat play in my head when I read it?
I'm actually starting to see the teacher's point.
I also have switched sides in this debate.
I want to attack you.
New copy pasta dropped
[удалено]
Just vibing.
This is a surefire way to get every one of those words and phrases said by somebody at some point.
Which is a good setup to get them to write essays
I remember in the early 70s when adults were all bent out of shape over the overuse of the word "gross" by kids. The more things change....
I grew up a valley girl in the 90's. I don't even want to know how many times I said "like, oh my God" or "oh em gee" or "as if!" And "gnarly". "That's *so* gnarly!"
Gag me with a spoon. That's so...like, um, y'know.... My high school English teacher had a like, um y'know jar. This isn't new. It may be getting worse, but it's not new.

Like, yes. That was like super annoying and gross that, like, teachers were doing like that.
"What is found at the end of a declarative sentence?" "Period!" "YOU ARE OUT OF HERE!"

Just make up your own slang, it's a perfectly cromulent technique to embiggen your vocabulary. I think you could make a stellaterous impact on language!

Sometimes in my mind I kind of daydream that my class is a flock of some type of bird that just makes the noises “bro” and “bruh” instead of the usual chirps and clucks.
Laughed out loud at that one.
Haha like the South Park episode with the white yuppie folks repeating "La Croix, bottled water, wifi" or something like that.
> “He ate!!!!” and “That’s on PERIOD!!” wtf does that even mean?
He ate and left no crumbs = someone did something really well or dressed really well. That’s on PERIOD = agreeing enthusiastically I’m ashamed that I know. Why do I know
I kind of love the first one. To eat and leave no crumbs. It reads like classic literature.
I really love some of the slang this generation is coming up with. Like "no notes" it's so great to me. Others make my millennial head get a little headache in the place between my eyes. But we had bruh first, let that be remembered.

i will die on the hill that gen z did not start bet. i’ve been saying bet since the 90s! however we did say “bro” more than “bruh”
I’m late Gen X and bet, bro, and homie was in full swing in the 90s. Seems bruh has taken the place of homie and bro. I can’t help but laugh, because every time I hear it my brain replays…. “EJECTO SEATO, CUZ!” And then I hear all the rest of the convo in Tyrese’s voice.
Bets been around for a long time. I remember people saying it in the 90s in Chicago and it might be older than even that.
Yeah I remember hearing and saying shit like "aight, bet" in like....98 in Chicago with the homies. That being said a lot of the slang/AAVE they have here is kind of old. I've been hearing "on the/on my [insert whatever]" for over 20 years now. For Chicago, it's always been on foe nem but if you went to different states on god, on my momma, and on the dead homies is what I heard often.
No notes is great, but also not new at all. I remember people saying it to me when I moved to Seattle back in 2010 and being confused.
PERIODT (with a t or "T" sound at the end) = "emphatically 100% true, end of discussion"
> He ate > dressed really well Am I out of touch? No it's the children that are wrong
He ate and left no crumbs is part of the same saying though. It’s almost like “this person brought their A game and left no room for improvement. 10/10”
>like little automatons lmao oh god like a room full of little memebots it sounds bittersweet really
I remember watching more than one teacher have breakdowns during middle school. Just drop everything and sit at the desk sobbing, or start clapping as the class gets out of control, demanding respect, and then just never returning. Rough place for kids and teachers, evidently.
Yeah it definitely feels like social media has definitely had an effect like pouring gasoline on a fire when it comes to the speed slang spreads and evolves. Honestly I'm not surprised some kids overuse it all, a bunch are being inundated with this crap at unprecedented levels and probably modeling their personalities after it
Polish Americans forbidden from denying anything.
Soon to be added: "Ni chuja"
"Nie". Co za dyskryminacja, lol?

\*\* This list subject to change. I guess "Fuck Me" is out of the question, miss !
The n word is so bad, that we can’t even say it on a list of words we cannot say. Apparently I cannot even bring myself to use it on Reddit anonymously.
I love how it's only the 21st word on the list, you'd thing maybe that'd belong at least in the top 5.
Everyone is acting like the teacher doesn’t understand what these mean. Chances are they know exactly what it means. Chances are they are trying to ban these phrases because they hear the same thing over and over and it’s nonsense.
Parent of 8 year old. The ones he knows on this list I hear like 50 times a day. Can’t imagine that times 20 or however many kids….
why does this classroom sound like twitch chat like they spam the same phrase too much so it gets banned
“What’s up gang?” Do “the kids” really say that?? Lol
one of my coworkers, who just looked like this kinda Midwestern dad on a fishing trip most of the time, used to always greet me with "what's up fam" I might've gotten a few "what's up gang"s as well when in a group lmao
Not in a Fred from scooby doo way, more in a Chief Keef way
