seribulan

Goat

No, this doesn't describe an aggressive barnyard animal. Goat is actually an acronym for "Greatest of All Time." The term's actually been used in sports broadcasting to describe athletes since the 1990s, and pops up in hip hop tracks.

You: "I'm the goat."

Me: *raise single eyebrow skeptically*

seribulan

Salty


To be exceptionally bitter or agitated. This particular irritation typically stems from a past event that you still haven't gotten over.

Melissa didn't ask me to be her bridesmaid even though she promised me she would while we were in college, and I'm totally salty about it.

Or

"Do you see how salty Jen is being? I think she just rolled her eyes at me. Get over it, Jen, the wedding was six years ago."

"But Melissa, I mean, you were best friends."

seribulan

W/L

In the game of life, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. Of course, there's a new way to say that in 2017. For the good times, just say "W" (pronounced ‘dub’) and for the bad, simply state "L." Each initial stands for "a win" or "a loss," respectively.

"I just copped the new Yeezys."
"Damn! That’s a W."

"I just failed my midterm, bad."
"Man, sometimes you gotta just take the L."

seribulan

Done

When you're just over it and can't even for a minute longer.

"So, how was work?"
"I'm DONE. Done. "

seribulan

LB/FB

Here's a bit of social media knowledge for you: If you use Instagram and follow celebrities, you have surely seen a few "FB!" and "LB" messages in their comments sections. No, FB doesn't mean Facebook, but that's a good guess. It actually means "follow back," while LB means "like back." The purpose of writing these is to get more likes and followers on your Instagram page. Give it a try! (I don't think it works.)

"Why does every photo on Kylie Jenner's account say 'LBLBLBLBLBLB'?"
"Oh, those are teens begging for people to visit their Instagram pages and like their photos."

seribulan

Narrative

Shout out to Taylor Swift for this one. She gave a word formerly reserved for boring book reports a 2016 make-over when she unknowingly created one of the best memes and viral words of 2016. This phrase is best used in response to a request that you would really rather not perform or take part in. This includes: doing work, paying rent, going to meetings, and other laborious activities.

"I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I have never asked to be a part of, since 2009."

Or

"I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative."

seribulan

Respek

Birdman made "respek" into an iconic term after his rant on radio show The Breakfast Club. He urged the hosts to show him some respect, by adding some "respek" on his name.

"Please put some respeck on The Dutchess because it is an album of bangers."

Or

"You need to put some respeck on Beyoncé’s name.”w

seribulan

Dead

The traditional definition of the word "dead" is, of course, when someone is no longer alive or living. So the social and viral use of the word is obviously a bit of a stretch, but relates back to the real meaning. One “dies” or is “dead” when a celebrity “slays” or “kills” them.

"Did you see Kanye's contacts at the Met Gala?"
"Yes. Dead."

seribulan

aesthetic

The new "vibe."

“I just found this new Instagram account and I love the aesthetic.”

Or

“I just don’t like that artist because I don’t get her aesthetic.”

Or

“This is so my new aesthetic.”

seribulan

Ship


An abbreviation of the word "relationship." The word describes fans', or stans', approval of fictional or desired romances.

“I ship Larry.”

seribulan

TD

We already learned “dead,” so now we’re ready to move onto another variation on the word. TD stands for "to die." Most often used when something is too amazing and you’re worried you might just…die.

“Do you like this jacket on me?"
"It's TD. Buy it."

seribulan

Trash

When someone acts, looks, or comes off as classless or tasteless. It's a take on the term "trailer trash" and is quite the insult to either a person or a place, so be wary when using it.

"Did you read Piers Morgan's comments on Beyoncé?"
"Trash.

seribulan

FR means "for real." That's all.

"TGIF FR."
"Agree."

seribulan

TGIF may refer to: Thank God It's Friday a common expression;.

seribulan

Low key can be used in place of the formerly popular phrase "down low," because usually people say low key when they are about to say something they don't want everyone to know about. It's almost like a guilty pleasure. It is also the antithesis of high key.

"I low key tripped walking onto the subway today."

Or I am low key addicted to using Kimoji."
