So that's how it happens. I thought I was getting old when I had to look up 'based' on urban dictionary.

Thank god for that website, I can't imagine being an aging millennial in 1980 with all the kids talking about "radical" this and "cowabunga" that and not have anything to look up.
-
I'm curious, how recently did you have to look it up? For me it feels ancient compared to the likes of "rizz" but that's probably due to the circles I've been in.
-
Pretty based of you to admit.

This post is the first time that I realized reply lines were in rainbow order.

Is it really pronounced "dub"? I've never heard it spoken.
-
I always hear it as double u
-
Yeah, unless it was a really important win, then you might say it out entirely to emphasize your utter dominance over them.
-
Not exclusively, but sometimes.
-
Duh-b
-
Honestly don't think it's universal, but most of the time, yeah.

The moment when we change to dark mode and then we need to see shit posts with big white screenshots
-
Totally

Bright mode? [Hiss.]

So this is why Golden State Warriors are called "Dubs"! Today I learned.
The nickname comes from people shortening Warriors to the letter W. The shorter form of the letter W is pronounced "Dub." It also helps that W represents the word "win" in the world of sports, so when their fans refer to them as the Dubs, they are also referring to the team as winners.

I was there when it was written
-
is double v
-
Still a dub
-
Latin didn't have the letter U, so they wrote V when they said U

Hey! I’ve been invited to sports before. Some people think that me being large, tough, and angry would make me good at roller derby, unfortunately I’m also uncoordinated even when sober

If this some light mode joke I'm too dark mode to be able to read?
-
noun-pilled.

Was this when all the Johns in the world assembled into a field to fight?

Wait is this person using Lemmy on a mobile browser?
Is it comfortable to use?

Zak has 2 children?

If you want to be up to date on modern slang, fallout where the teenagers rizz with they homies.

W L comes from the W community on Twitch who watch streamers like Kai Cenat. They spam it into the chat.
-
2021 - present
People were definitely saying this long before 2021. I don't think it started on Twitch.
-
Knowyourmeme says it's from a 2003 music video

Even the site you linked to tells you it's the other way around. The W Community got it's name from "Win" commonly being shortened to W, not vice versa.

Good lord this screenshot hurts my eyes. Use dark mode for goodness sake
Light mode during the day, dark mode at night
I’m reading this at night though. Think of all the poor souls that will get flashbanged in the next few hours.
Not that it matters but it’s a little insane that 8 people thought to downvote you because of how you choose your theme settings.
Like I’m dark mode on everything at all times, but I won’t downvote you for being different. Some folk be wack.
Oof ouch my eyeballs
Lol
We use the same app AND settings
(For anyone who's curious: the app's "Eternity for Lemmy", the
predecessorsuccessor of "Infinity for reddit")Doesn't that mean your brightness is set too high?
No your Mode is wrong!
