I only do it around certain people, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321834 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 09:02:41 +0000 autumnlove 321834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321798 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 08:39:54 +0000 Alivoo01 321798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, and I can't stand all the freakin acronyms now days. It's like we flipping forgot how to to talk in words. It gives me a headache trying to decipher what someone is talking about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321780 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 08:30:43 +0000 PrincessBaby 321780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: Ha! I say Whatevs too - mainly because I think it's funny/saracastic, and DH made fun of it, and now he'll say it too:)</p> <p>I jumped on the FML bandwagon momentarily, I thought it was funny. Then DH asked what it meant and when I told him, he was so nerdy about it- "Why would you say that? Oh yeah, your life is SOOOO bad!!!!" So literal!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321769 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 08:26:51 +0000 MrsBrewer 321769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to sound super lame for typing this but, when I read "totes" I thought right away, ohhh tote bags! Yea I say totes a lot! But then.....I'm like waiittt....I think it's supposed to mean "totally" </p> <p>As you can tell, I definitely do not use trendy language. hahahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321702 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 07:18:32 +0000 JerricaBenton 321702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only if I'm joking :) I like to 'keep up' from a linguistics perspective because I think it's interesting but it doesn't come naturally to me to talk that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321699 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 07:14:44 +0000 Arden 321699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never.

I think it's rather immature and it makes me cringe. It almost sounds like the person saying it is trying too hard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321647 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 02:15:19 +0000 looch 321647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I try not to. I don't want to be that person that is trying to hard to be hip. Plus I would probably not use it in the correct context. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321642 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 01:54:41 +0000 DigAPony 321642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I find that kind of language obnoxious. It really bugs me when I read it on blogs too (stuff like amazeballs, awesomesauce, etc.). But, like @birdofafeather, my husband and I say Totes McGotes because Paul Rudd says it in I Love You Man and he's just the cutest. Plus he's using it kind of ironically. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321638 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 01:36:51 +0000 SugarplumsMom 321638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just looked up YOLO. I'm sad like that! I've heard amazeballs used a few years ago, but I've never actually said it. My friends use "trendy" words from our childhood - not often, but when we're talking to each other and get all excited, but then I doubt it's actually trendy anymore! We're old! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321635 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:46:42 +0000 birdofafeather 321635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i use totes mcgotes from i love you, man. and other random words that i feel like i just made up from other words. i just can't get behind YOLO though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321633 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:35:32 +0000 Freckles 321633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HeatherlovesKenny: okay, i just looked it up. "shake my head". that's the lamest acronym ever! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321632 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:34:47 +0000 Freckles 321632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: You Only Live Once. DH had to tell me! I feel so lame. It's in Drake's "The Motto".</p> <p>I don't really use "trendy" language because for the most part, i find that it's usually used by high schoolers. I don't really want to be THAT person. :P But @prettylizy, i do use "epic fail" once in a while. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321625 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:02:08 +0000 HLK208 321625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: I still have no clue what SMH means?! I try to guess and I never care enough to look it up! </p> <p>I don't think I talk that trendy. Sometimes I say trendy phrases because they make me laugh, like b-t-dubs, or whatev's, for reals (which is an old one but my sister and I still say it all the time), but I'm never serious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321610 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 23:14:49 +0000 Meridian 321610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: I haven't heard of either abbreviations either!</p> <p>I love the word Amazeballs because Guiliana Rancic used it and I &lt;3 her, but I have never actually used the word before! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-use-trendy-language#post-321600 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 23:06:55 +0000 Honeybee 321600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no idea what YOLO or SMH means! I dont generally use trendy language but I do say " Legen... Wait for it... Dary!" </p>
