J-Live:
You got me right when I was about to get my Instagram on with this record I found.
Me:
Haha, oh, have you seen the AT&T commercial where two guys were tailgating, had their iPads out tweeting and on Facebook, beating everybody to what was going on at that time. Someone would run to them screaming about the mascot being stolen, and they already twitpic’d the scene and went “oh, that was so 56 seconds ago!”
J-Live:
No, I need to check that out. It seems like everybody knows about technology and the ways, the language too. My mom knows about LOL now!
Me:
Yeah, I was just talking to my sister this morning about how kids will use acronyms to cuss now. Like if they wanna say “oh, that’s badass,” they’ll say “that’s so BA,” or if they wanna say punk-ass they’ll say PA.
J-Live:
Oh, really? This is all new to me so I gotta watch out! I hear them say that, I’ll say “what you call me? I know what that means!” Those could be fighting words. When I was teaching in Brownsville, they used “ABG” for “anybody could get it.”
Me:
Oh yeah, fighting words for real!
J-Live:
It tripped me out because one of the older gods I knew went by ABG. When I heard kids shouting ABG, at first I was like “yall know ABG? Oh, that’s not it.”
Me:
Haha, completely wrong acronym right there. But to get back on track...
