Nope, never! I work in a middle school and hear kids using it all the time to each other, so it really lost it's appeal to me pretty quickly.

Uh no, we aren't much for trendy nicknames. I would never say babe either.

I must be old and out of the loop. I've never even heard of this. There is no way I'll be using it.

No and being out of the classroom this year means I will be even more out of the loop when it comes to words like this!

@hotchildinthecity: You just taught me something new.
I have no idea what it meant but surmised it was something like babe. So the answer to the question is no.

@Shutterbug: Hahahaha!!
Yeah I'm pretty sure BAE originated from that first pic and people made up the "before anyone else" to validate using it. Uh no.

I must be an old fart because I've never heard of this and I'm still completely confused. Maybe it's cause I'm blonde & it's still early?

My 10 year old stepdaughter introduced me to this term. I thought it was just popular in kiddie circles.

I don't know the proper context in which to use the lingo, therefore I am too old to use it.

@Danizaur: wait, so Bae became a thing because some dope spelled Babe wrong in her IG pic?

@mrbee: okay. So just like the term "boo" I shall never call anyone "bae" either.

We don't. I call him babe, though. This thread makes me feel like I'm hanging with senior citizens on here. I don't understand how people haven't heard of this?!?

@mediagirl: I think so! That's the first time I had ever heard of it. Lol I think it started as a joke and people started using it seriously.

@mrsjazz: haha I don't either. Especially people who obviously hang out on the Internet!

@mrsjazz: @Synchronicity: I take my senior citizenship very seriously.

@mediagirl: LOL I usually feel like a senior compared to most people my age, but this thread has me feeling like a preteen! I'll have to keep bae in my back pocket for when I want to feel youthful again

@mediagirl: @Synchronicity: Yeah, this thread is making me feel like I'm about to turn 17 not 37!
And I'm pretty sure most of you have no idea what a THOT is, so I realize that I've discovered a way to remain youthful via HB.

Nooo.. It took me forever to even catch on what was happening!
persimmon / 1404 posts
Definitely not! I'm not under 21 or ghetto
@mrsjazz: I sure do know what a THOT is!
coconut / 8861 posts
@mrsjazz: I only recently learned what THOT means after reading the comments on Teen Mom Junkies. I'm just as out of touch with tween lingo.
