As 20
somethings, my husband and I are kind of oblivious to the fact that the English
language as we know it is changing. So I of course needed a cheat sheet, and I
thought I’d share it with you.
-“Like a
Boss”
“I just parallel parked like a
boss”. I am assuming this phrase originated in a mob, which of course we should
all aspire to do things as competently as a mob boss.
-“Totes”
“I totes just set my tote in a
puddle”. I know; this one is imperative. T-o-t-e-s means totally but because
the word totally is totes waaaayyy too long it's easier to say totes. A tote, of course
is a type of handbag. However, if you have more than one tote this could totes
be confusing.
-“Photobomb”
“WHY does my brother photobomb
every decent pic?”. This is what you call it when you take a cute picture with
someone and upon further inspection you realize your brother is mooning the
camera in the background.
-“Cray-Cray”
“Did you see **** was wearing
mint polish with a emerald green maxi? That girl’s cray-cray!” Don’t think I
need to explain this one.
Now you can
continue your scintillating conversations without stumbling when someone says
something cray-cray. And remember, you must abbreviate everything because using
a full word in a full sentence is so 2011.
