"...now what I have isn't rizz, and what's rizz seems weird and scary to me.

It will happen to you!"

Thing I actually said to my Gen Z coworker.

    Remember when rizz was drip? Remember when drip was swag? Remember when swag was game? Remember when game was style?

      I feel like these describe slightly different things. Drip seems more clothing oriented to me. Rizz seems more autistic women reflexively mirroring. Swag is more of a single person camping weather gear thing

        Drip concerns fashion, originally jewelry. Potentially associated with the term "ice" meaning diamonds. Compare to the now old-fashioned "bling".

      slang is just subsequent generations using different words to describe the same thing

    I’ve said this to my students a few times. Then they no shot Fanum tax me out of pocket for not having level 4 gas while letting me cook on OG Fornite map.

    Mixing up slang from completely different decades and when called out on it, pull the "I'm a Chinese immigrant and English is my second language" card.

    No cap, the vibes are so jive, it's giving me the blues.

    I've never been cool, so I don't have to worry about losing whatever "rizz" is

    My Gen Z coworker is an impenetrable wall of slang, meme-speak and other shit i cannot fucking understand which just reinforces the fact that im a fucking boomer already.

      Mine are a jock dude who talks like a Cali surfer bro, Jewish teen who is literally a physical manifestation of a Ukraine flag emoji guy, and nerdy bi dude who's genuinely pretty smart and funny, and who I said this to.

    I never had rizz but then they changed what rizz was and now I do have rizz and what is rizz seems extremely natural to me albeit a decade too late since I have since moved past where I was 10 years ago
