AmberDust 1,116 November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 Bae, Squad, Banter, Yolo, Cray, Swag Is "banter" an internet term? I never thought so. I've used it for a few years now. But, yeah, I really hate the word "bae". It sounds so...stupid. Like, you've bastardized the word "baby" into "babe", then "babe" into "bae". It just sounds...I don't know. Stupid. I do use the word Cray-cray though, jokingly, because of Gravity Falls. ^^' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venomous 18,813 November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 The only terms that really annoy me are "Squad", "YOLO", "Netflix and chill" and "smh". I can't really think of any others right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoltenKitten 341 November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 The only word I have a problem with is "yolo" because people use it as an excuse to do completely idiotic things. Newsflash: You only die once as well! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odyssey 5,713 November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 (edited) I actually find these words to be hilarious. I sometimes like to even use some of them while talking with other people. I think people are clearly overreacting over something as trivial as a bunch of words. Like with most slang, these words will die out eventually and be replaced by a new bunch of words, so there's no need to be petty over all of this.

cmarston1 5,951 November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 Yeah I am not really a fan of these terms in general. Or at least used seriously. Jokingly on the other hand. It can be funny to use them to make fun of poor grammar found on the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celtore 2,769 November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 Squad and banter are ok, at least those are actual words. But yes, certain internet slang does get a little under my skin. Mostly the slang that immediately brings the image of a scumbag to my mind. Ex: Swag, bae and yolo. I can't read those words without picturing a jerk on the other side of the monitor. I know they're just words, but for some reason it's just my knee jerk reaction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltosaa 86 November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 (edited) I see nothing wrong or annoying with Internet terms. People like to treat others as intellectual inferiors as a way to stroke their ego. Yes, all of my yes right here ^^^^^ Also, Banter is not an Internet term. Dddeerrrppp. Edited November 4, 2015 by baltosaa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponylaces 1,869 November 4, 2015 Share November 4, 2015 They annoy me too, But the thing people write that annoy me more then anything is "u"and "ur" instead of "you" and "Your"... ur right famI mean, you're right. Anyway, they get annoying pretty fast, but they're harmless so I don't really care. I only use them when I'm joking around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rawzy 1,302 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 Well.... Bae....I think teenagers like to make this noise to rid themselves of their struggle to tell a girl that they like them by simply saying "you're my bae". Squad is like...a group of friends or something...I think that's what teenagers call it these days. Banter is probably the least annoying to me, because it's an actual word that you can use in a proper argument, or just like...a serious conversation. Yolo, mostly used by twelvies, anyone older is ussually wearing a backwards snapback. It's not as annoying as it used to be since it's been around for a few years now, You might hear the odd teenager make this noise, but twelvies say it all the time like as if it's their mating call, Cray, I have absolutely no idea what this means, I've heard the odd popular teenage girl make this "cray" noise, they must really like Crayfish. Swag, when used in the proper context, it's not so bad, for instance.....a guy is with his friend and he sees another guy with about 50 golden necklaces around his neck, he then turns to his friend and sais "man...that guys got a lot of swag". On the other hand...when a twelvie spots another twelvie making the "Yolo" noise, they will respond with a high-pitched "Swag", and then that is the first stage of how twelvies mate.

Heinz 83 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 I, for one, am quite fond of these terms. What a wonderful era we live in! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1111 1,284 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 I don't really care as long as they don't do some of it irl, and don't see why any one should care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostgage 7,972 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 I actually think they're pretty fun to use if you don't spam them everywhere. I don't know why people want/expect perfect grammar and spelling on the internet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adri 52 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 I don't care for them, but don't particularly find them amusing in the slightest either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraph Sun 56 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 I think language is ever-evolving, and new terms come up. Some fade, but some stay as a fixture in language. I'll wait to see if they become permanent before picking them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Coffee Pony 1,390 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 When the hell did banter become an internet term? It's an actual word that's used in serious discussions! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invincible 2,090 November 5, 2015 Share November 5, 2015 I hate them too. Either they'll die out eventually or be replaced, every decade has it's own stupid terms. Even this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rainbow Dash 1,471 November 6, 2015 Share November 6, 2015 I hate them because it makes me feel old and out of the loop. Sure the loop is stupid and uneducated, but its better then not being in a loop...i guess? Honestly, half these terms don't bug me. They are kinda like viners: funny for a bit then gets annoying and old, then people forget about them and move onto a new fad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DATA EXPUNGED 324 November 6, 2015 Share November 6, 2015 What really grinds my gears is when people say "Bae." It is so sad to see that the english language is being bastardized into an unrecognizable state. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
