Thanks to sleeping in, plenty of freedom, and a great data plan, I got extremely used to internet slang over the summer, so coming back to school I got numerous questionable looks when I got too excited about something and used my casual internet lingo.

So to help clarify, I made a list of slang terms I use on a daily basis so people might understand what I am saying . . .

“Wig” — Used when someone does something amazing or impressive or when someone looks good.

*Did you see her outfit?

Yes, wig! She looks so good.*

“Tea” — “Spill the tea” is often used when someone wants to spill details about a recent event. Not to be confused with sipping tea, which means minding your business.

*Are you going to spill the tea?

Yes, the tea is...*

“It really do be like that sometimes” — A general comment of recognition or acknowledgement used when anything happens at anytime; I typically use it to recognize a minor inconvenience.

*I failed a test.

It really do be like that sometimes.*

“Jump” — A house party

Are you going to this jump tonight?

“This ain’t it chief” — Used when someone disagrees with something.

*I’m going to call her.

This ain’t it chief.*

“This energy” — Also used when someone agrees with something.

*I love this song!

Ugh your energy!*

“Let’s get this bread” — Let’s make money; often used ironically when people are doing anything but making money.

*Good morning; let’s get this bread. *

“(Sent in invisible ink)” — Used after a risky tweet or comment is posted for which you expect to get some objections.

I don’t like candy corn (sent in invisible ink)
