[Misc] Is my fit drip?

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Bi-lingual ? (or teenage children )

I remember when I had a teenage daughter, her shouting at me 'YOU'RE THE STRICTEST PARENTS OF ALL MY FRIENDS'
and me replying 'well thank you'
her 'IT WASN'T MEANT TO BE A F***ING COMPLIMENT'

And my favourite amongst my friends, having just moved from Lewes to Chiddingly and his teenage daughter discovering there was no broadband
'SEE I TOLD YOU NOT TO MOVE TO F***ING NARNIA'

Teenagers, don't you love 'em

You can't have been that strict. I'd have got a right hook off either parent if I'd dropped the f bomb in front of them.

However, that Narnia comment is gold. Or possibly drip. If drip can be commandeered and used in such a way.

I teach at an international school in Singapore and all the (rich, privileged, never even heard of a council estate) kids talk like they're in an episode of Top Boy. Could be a half German/ half Korean kid, doesn't matter. Interesting to watch the influence of British and American slang combining amongst the 'yout'.
Everyone is everyone's 'bruh' whether boy or girl and now it's leng when 5 minutes ago it was peng.
Had a kid say 'Sir, Let me cook' when she was writing something.

Exactly the same here in Manila with International School kids and previously in Hong Kong. Less so for my brief stint in Mainland although granted was mostly with younger students there so could be why!

Also seems like the teacher's kids aren't too bad. The richer the family, the more they speak like an East London Estate around their mates and a Tarquin or a Rupert come parent's evening.

I work with a young lady from Copthorne, she's got much better recently due to all the bullying at work, but she used to come out with all this Laaandan talk as if she thought she was a rude girl from the hood. In actual fact she's very well spoken and a lovely girl and openly admits that if she spoke like that in front of her mum she'd get a mouthful, but her copy and paste idiot friends are all the same, from well off families yet seem to think speaking like a moron is cool.

I still can't come to terms with sick being a good thing!

I remember a kid saying 'It's sick' to a friend who'd asked how the kid's pizza was. The look on friend's face as he managed to compute that it was actually a compliment was very funny.
Mind you, that was 20 years ago so sick must be pretty dated now.
Everything was 'wicked' in my teens.

Fit is basically taking how we lads used to call top birds, and applying it to outfits. Drip is just a new word for sick etc (I think).

Drip as a noun did mean clothes but now it seems like it's also an adjective that can be used to describe anything/anyone that has style (or swag should I say?)

It's bloody confusing
