More importantly, why the hell would anyone speak at them beyond, "yes, I want fries with that."?

 

[Cyco]

You are sadly mistaken. They just stop talking to old people.

Hmm. Doesn't cool-speak tend to be a regional thing? Like whether you call soda coke, pop or something else?

Argot that's national tends to get picked up by writers for tv shows targeted to a younger demographic so depending on what you watch, you'll be more or less up to date whether you want to be or not.

I spent an hour on urban dictionary the other day after talking to a kid:

"Yeet"

"Facts"

"Bet"

"Mood"

I'm hip with the lingo now.
