Ok, so recently I have been studying the vernacular of the average teen. It has come to my attention that I don't quite understand all the ins and outs of the modern lingo. One phrase in particular is anything that ends with " . . . much?"
I hear kids say this all the time. It ends with sentences like "
skanky much?" or "ghetto much?" And to be frank, I really don't know what they're saying or what it means.
Ask the Audience
If you know, could you please explain it and then use it in a sentence for me so I can have an example to go off of? Thanks,
erin
I don't have a clue, but you saying vernacular made me think of Lil' C. Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
ReplyDelete"Skanky much?" would mean "Wow, that girl is really skanky". So I see a girl walking around in stilettos and fishnet tights and a mini skirt with her butt cheeks hanging out and her purple bra showing through a too small white tank, and I'd say, "wow, skanky much?" ;-)
ReplyDeleteHaha! This is such a "Buffy" phrase. Here is a link to an explanation, although Sara totally did it justice! This link will just give you a legit feeling when you use it.

"pathetic much?" mwahah! I love Buffy......
OH no Tammy, the link cut off, can you please send me it through email. I seriously need to study this phrase.
ReplyDeleteerin, if we wanted to say it bout you, we'd say "snap a quick one much?" or something like that. it's basically stating the obvious with a sarcastic question. *cause you're soooo good at sarcasm*. jk.
ReplyDeleteah...you made my day carson!
ReplyDeletesarcastic much?
ReplyDeleteWe used to say it jokingly in high school too- let's say that someone gives you a compliment and says you're hot and you reply, "Jealous much?" As in, oh yes I'm hot and you must be jealous! The silly things we said/people say...
ReplyDeleteOH Marcie! Thanks, that's great.
ReplyDeleteWow, interesting! My babysitter started using this frequently just a few weeks ago. Has there been a bit of a delay in the kids picking this up? Isn't Buffy a '90s show? Or it just STILL commonly used slang?
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I'm discussing the lingo of today's teens on a blog. Makes me feel old. :D
ReplyDeleteBanned complain !! Complaining only causes life and mind become more severe. Enjoy the rhythm of the problems faced. No matter ga life, not a problem not learn, so enjoy it :)
