- Make it "the dreams I'm unaliving" and it's perfect
- That boy's head is shaped like a lightbulb. It's like his torso just got an idea.
- Get some help
I have this image if anyone wants it
- No thanks
I'll never forget the day when I signed off, "Kind retards," instead of, "Kind Regards."
- This is why I never do anything other than "Thanks,"
  
  Welp, "Tanks" isn't as far out as it used to be.
Bet is from African American Vernacular English (AAVE) not Gen whatever slang.
The following is from 12/15/1985 when Eddie Murphy is hosting Saturday Night Live. He uses "bet" at around 2:10 though it's a solid monologue if you have seen "Best Defense" (if you have not don't)

- Gen whatever slang often borrows from AAVE though.

  So the lifecycle of everything is approximately 35ish years. When I was a kid, bell bottoms were popular, and consequently, they were also popular in the late '60s and early '70s, just as an example.
  
  I'm just confused over the idea that a bunch of middle schoolers are begging their mom for a perm.
  
  Every time I see that cut all I can see is Mark Mothersbaugh, especially if they have the glasses.
- Interesting and it makes sense that it came from the 80s, given the Gen Z's obsession with the decade.
You mean y'all don't re-read your email 20 times before you hit send?
No cap ?
- Skib. Bi dee Pennsylvania
He just says "brah" or "bro" with different inflection. No other words.
- I prefer "brochacho".
