There was a shirt, it was Mario + Mushroom = Big Mario. Our administration thought this was a drug reference. Some nerdy kid would wear the shirt and about half way through the day they would be wearing it inside out.

In the 80s they let us say bitchin' in class because ''it's just slang for good''

As an elder gen Z I can assure you that the list of banned things in my class circa 2015 was somehow worse. Just off the top of my head.

SpongeBob laugh

WW2 Propaganda (Just cause it's historical doesn't make it not pornography vaultdweller013)

Any discussion of the killdozer

Bulldozer noises

Tank noises (You will all make annoying lawyers)

Kazoos are not longer allowed

Compressed air canisters are banned especially if you have a whistle and duck tape

Arma is not allowed to be watched on computer property

Soviet national anthem

Russian national anthem

State anthem of Mississippi

Djibouti National anthem

Sakkinarven Polka

Those are just the ones I remember, I am the direct source of at least half of them.

They changed the state anthem of Mississippi a couple of years ago from Go Mississippi to One Mississippi. It's no longer contextually hilarious and not nearly as hoki. I guess Mississippi decided they were not on the right track and probably were never going to get to the top.

Shame the old one is pretty unique, frankly if anyone needs an update it's us Californians. But we are also a somewhat lazy bunch and would probably just make California Dreamin the new anthem. Either that or the committee would let their insanity take hold and ya would end up with something reminiscing a Latin war cant.

This is wildly unrelated but it's the polka that plays in my head when someone mentions polka which also happens to be mildly problematic though hilarious.

I get like 3 or 4 of those. Some of them I've heard out of context so I have no clue what they mean.

I'm 39.

How do you misspell memes as mames?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 17 hours ago

"No mames" is a slang phrase in Spanish which is used to mean "no way" or "you’re kidding me," but with a crude connotation, similar to "no f—ing way" in English.

Google Translate shows it as being more vulgar:

no mames is Spanish and translates to "no way" or "youre kidding"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

"Ratchet" would probably be up there.

That's gotta be a millennial word, it's so on fleek. Bye Felicia!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

It definitely got used a lot by us; but iirc, it's a borrowed slang from an older period we just liked. Like gnarly or tubular. I am pretty sure I've seen it used, in the slang capacity I understand, in a Shaft movie from the 70's.

Story time! When I was in high school (~1998/99) a group of kids decided to start a “gang.” I went to a small Baptist school. Kids were bored. This was maybe second period. They called their gang the “Yo’s.” Saying “Yo” was pretty much the extent of their gang. By lunchtime a group of us got annoyed and decided to start a rival gang called the “No’s.” The Bloods to the Yo’s Crips. The sign you were a No was you grabbed a brown paper towel from the bathroom and wore it hanging from your back pocket.

Anyway, just before dismissal everyone was called into an assembly and given a lecture on gangs and told that anyone wearing a brown paper towel would receive a detention. I am still amused at how seriously our administration took this obviously stupid and juvenile joke.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 17 hours ago

Wait until you learn how seriously law enforcement took street gangs.

The whole Saints Row series was based on the dichotomy between incorrigible feral teens, a product of hands-off parenting while simultaneously running an international drug and crime syndicate

Of note is the property of ur-fascism the enemy [of the movement] is simultaneously strong and weak

In public highschool in the '90s in rural Ohio. A bunch dressed in western/cowboy gear and brought guns to a football game and there was some other 'gang' as well (maybe same fashion but different belief? I don't remember). One person got found with a gun and arrested, but nothing else came of it. Yeehaw, I suppose.

We weren't allowed to wear hats because that meant you were in a gang...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 15 hours ago

Early 90s they were TERRIFIED we might wear gang color shoe laces.
