That's what kids do. And it's also why fogies should never try to "talk hip" with the kids. We're always out of date. (We should also never talk about the music or movies of our childhood. Risky Business and REM are Bogart and Sinatra to them.)

Well yes and no. Most slang is about being more expressive; these are about being less.
