I have a friend that says pmo out loud. I haven't said anything about it, and I don't think it will.
I had to look that one up. Had no idea toktokers were so polite lmao

Yesterday I heard a kid use "trending" to mean popular. This was at a carnival, referring to a ride "trending" in the sense of having a long line. Feel like this is the modern version of LOL and OMG escaping into conversation.

i don't mind this one, because it at least makes some degree of sense. The etymology is understandable without needing to reference urban dictionary, and it doesn't utterly contradict the previous definition.

Wha? She's not super terminally online. Just really awkward.

My wife and I are both computer geeks, and so our kids were exposed to computers and played computer games from a young age. One day I was playing with our daughter - playing with her dolls - and she said, "I'm going to exit this Barbie and select this one." Cracked me up because it made perfect sense, but it's not the way people talk about things IRL.

I teach at a middle school. I occasionally refer to my class as "chat" to make my students cringe. They hate it and tell me I'm too old.

All I could find is that it's a tik thing. I don't touch the stuff myself, filthy habit.

I keep thinking back to Abe Simpson's quote, "I used to be with it, then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what is it is weird and scary to me."
What I'm with definitely is no longer it, but what is it is novel and curious to me.
I 100% understand "chat." If you've ever heard someone address a real or imagined audience as "sports fans" it's that same psychology, mimicking radio, television or now internet streamers. I'm not going to adopt it but I fully get how it works.

Yeah like "dank" or "sick" or "ill" did.
