Thankfully, I haven't been bruh'ed yet by my kids only because I said a few times it sounds like they are saying bra constantly and if they needed one so badly we can get them one. I did feel like Doc from Back to the Future once when my sons friend referred to a female as bad. I was like, she seemed nice, and my son proceeded to explain that bad means good or hot..

Same with my 8 year old. It's driving me mad. That and the Italian brainrot.
AbbreviationsBorn276@reddit
10 and 6 year old. Bruh or brah.
CarefulSir4307@reddit
My 6 year old too.
panteragstk@reddit
These are old terms. A decade old at least.
My college friends said "brah" 20 years ago.
Atillion@reddit

I actually saw a young'un write it like "bra" and wonder if they saw what they did there.
Apprehensive_Hat8986@reddit
Most dudes I see writing brah distinguish it from bra by adding the "h". Though that's probably the only distinguished thing about it. 😉

"The kids have their own thing like we did. Don't be a booooooomer."
First of all, their "own thing" is shit, largely influenced by the what is perhaps the worst sub-culture ever created by mankind (streamers, from video game streamers to broccoli haired IRL nuisance streamers). And secondly, while past generations had their own slang, they didn't say it every other goddamn word.

My wife and I seriously considered getting these tattoos. We may still
BomBiddyByeBye@reddit (OP)
Are there any words that we leaned on as heavily as Gen Z leans on this one? I mean, we definitely used dude a lot but my goodness is “Bro” pervasive.
plastiquearse@reddit
Dude
AbbreviationsBorn276@reddit
I still use dude and dudette. Unless dude is gender neutral, which i never thought it was.
Abidarthegreat@reddit
He's a dude, she's a dude, we're all dudes. Hey!
BritOnTheRocks@reddit
Ok_Percentage5157@reddit
Dude? Oh, dude.
akerasi@reddit
"Cool" and "Dude".
Apprehensive_Hat8986@reddit
"Cool" goes back to our grandparents generation. It wasn't always cool to cool. Cool cooled off some in the sixties. By the 70's though, cool came back hot, cool as always, and just stayed cool. We cool?
DamarsLastKanar@reddit
There are still people that haven't outgrown "like".
c_r_a_s_i_a_n@reddit
Your teens talk to you?
Apprehensive_Hat8986@reddit
Mine do too.
Itchy_Smile4022@reddit

Apprehensive_Hat8986@reddit

Bruh
joecarter93@reddit
It’s funny because my oldest son in high school and all his friends talk like normal people, but my youngest in junior high and all his friends are all, gyat this and skibidi that.
AbbreviationsBorn276@reddit
Brah or bruh to me, their mom.
Rivas-al-Yehuda@reddit
I'm surprised at how many young girls say 'bruh' non-stop. I see a lot of people posting their text conversations here on reddit, and there are even adult gen Z women saying 'bruh' over and over to their boyfriends. I find it quite strange.
SurfNTurf1983@reddit
I've never stopped saying dude.
Helo7606@reddit
I laughed my ass off the first time my kid called me bruh.
Truth_Seeker963@reddit
Bruh. Dawg. kk

Grade 4s at my kids school use it way too much. My kid is grade three, and still hasn't picked up any slang yet. He's going to grade 4 this coming year though...
