What would this list look like for your generation?
-
"Ratchet" would probably be up there.
That's gotta be a millennial word, it's so on fleek. Bye Felicia!

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.

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

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.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]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.

Doesn’t this literally translate to “Don’t suck, cuck. What a fart. You see it?” ?
Yes lol The proper translation is, "No way, dude. What the hell, did you see that?"

I don't get why 3, 10, 14, 18, 19, 20 and 22 would be on that list. Some of those arw completely normal words on their own.
Okay Low taper fade probably references something but I don't get it. No names? On what? People just go around saying "no names"? In what context? What does it even mean?

It's a context thing.
Ohio = a bad place to be. Honestly, as a non-Ohio Midwesterner, I say this should be allowed.
Chat = like addressing the twitch chat. "Chat, are we doomed?" It's actually pretty interesting from a linguistics perspective because it's arguably a fourth person pronoun. But in-class I can see it getting out of hand.

because it’s arguably a fourth person pronoun.
Even if you consider it a pronoun, which you'd then also have to do with "class" in "Class, please open the book at page 14", it's still second person plural. Arguments against "class" and chat" being a pronoun include that they're nouns, I think that's rather convincing.
Fourth person would be "One does not simply walk into Mordor". "One does not address the fourth person". I guess people got it mixed up with the 4th wall that's why the confusion exists.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I get 1st, 2nd, and 3rd person, but 4th person is a new concept to me and I'm trying tl wrap my head around it given your examples. This is intersting
Edit: OOOOHH so it's like 3rd person where you're talking to the second person about another person, BUT instead of that person being a specific person (3rd person) it's more like a "they/them" kind of thing where it's not any specific person but just... Anyone at all?
