Everyone’s Talking About Ohio…

It has nothing to do with Ohio. The Buckeye state is now stand-in slang for anything weird, cringy, or random . We knew that all along here at the Board .

Currently on vacation with four tween girls (three nieces, one daughter). Can confirm - gen alpha slang is mind boggling. Mewing, giga chad, rizz, sus, cap, etc. Just no idea how we got here…except to say these are the children of mostly Gen Y/millenials (Gen X in my case) who were the first to grow up with social media. Thanks Zuckerberg!

The Ohioans interviewed for the article seem to think bad publicity is better than no publicity at all. That's just so Ohio.

Ohio and Iowa. The only states spelled with one consonant and three vowels. Coincidence?? I think not.

Is this how our parents or elders felt when we talked the way we did growing up?

So the way we older folk used to refer to Florida?
