It’s based? Based on what?
Ah! okay then. Yay. I wasn’t completely off the mark after all! 
NEET is from Japanese slang. It means “not in employment, education, or training.” I.e. a lazy schlub who just sits at home doing nothing, just mooching of their parents.
I’m 28 and i have no idea what is 80% what people say
I mean, what is /10char?
Don’t you threaten me with a good time.

The forums require 10 letters to be able to post. So if your post is very short you fill the rest with /10 char.

If you’re using social media, twitch and even to an extent wow chat you learn a lot of useless things. It doesn’t matter what generation you are, 20 years from now the kids today won’t understand what is going on. Are we still using mobile phones 20 years from now or have they turned into something else.
omg lol. Not completely off the mark then, since NEET essentially means the american version of basement dwelling neck beards.
and wow… i actually know 2 of these irl… sad, sad situation that.
Coming up on 68 here and my feeling is that if the casual vernacular of the up and coming generation is easily understood by it’s parents and grandparents then it has no right to consider itself a full fledged generation.
Turn on, tune in, drop out and be groovy my man.

How are you almost 40 and not already familiar with the trope of being out of touch with youth slang?
Over 50 and I just do a web search on words that I don’t know. Urban Dictionary usually covers most slang as it comes and goes but be careful on what you wish for.

How much you wanna bet
- this guy is not at all the age he claims to be.
- He probably knows exactly what any of those terms he listed are and uses them on a daily basis.
- can’t troll bait to save his life. Oh wait that’s what this thread is…
I don’t get why people feel they need to spam trade chat with religious nonsense so much? As an atheist, I’m always amused at the devotion people have to having to push that nonsense on everyone in game.
Atleast they got past the “L” or “Lawl” being said out loud generation nothing more annoying then someone responding with “lawl” in person.
The overuse and misuse of “literally” makes me cringe and laugh.

No it’s not an old thing. It’s a care to keep up thing.
I almost forgot the habit of calling everyone a troll and everything trolling.
OP and I listen to “Dad Rock”.
And as you age, you feel less need to “keep up”. Generally.
