It's neutral enough on the face of it that it might've been a more innocuous phrase had it originated in another time, but in our current era it seems to have an inherently passive aggressive vibe.

"you do you" is definitely the northeast/mid-atlantic "bless your heart"

What does it mean?

"Go fuck yourself"

just putting “go” before any verb is so fucking irritating

Go figure.

"my guy" and "my dude" which are everywhere on the internet right now. like "you're using the wrong browser, my dude". ugh.

i'm not your dude, pilgrim

― difficult listening hour, Friday, 6 July 2018 23:37 (eight years ago)

“Fam” is aave whereas “my dude” has gotta be white person talk so I’m way more comfortable with white ppl saying “my dude”

― devops mom (silby), Saturday, 7 July 2018 00:18 (eight years ago)

Omg “hard” or “soft” anything for me. Too much!

― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Saturday, 7 July 2018 00:58 (eight years ago)

What everyone really needs to accept is that it’s horribly grating to hear anyone say anything that anyone else has ever said before

― devops mom (silby), Saturday, 7 July 2018 01:18 (eight years ago)

Can u just stop

slang usage is embarrassing when employed recklessly

― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Saturday, 7 July 2018 06:47 (eight years ago)

"fam" grates on me a bit. The bf's podcast facebook group call each other "fam bam" all the time which is arrrrgh

i also dislike virtue signalling as a phrase because it is used pejoratively by MRA cunts a lot.

'tache

― illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 7 July 2018 08:44 (eight years ago)

that "fam" shit is really nauseating, but I suppose slang reaches the saturation point of annoying as fuck very fast these days, and we are all bad.

― calzino, Saturday, 7 July 2018 08:55 (eight years ago)

"fam" in my neighborhood is said almost every sentence, it's as common as "mate", it's just a filler word, scarcely noticeable

― illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 7 July 2018 08:58 (eight years ago)

I'd never heard it until recently. Is that commonly used in a French language or french speaking Anglais context?

― calzino, Saturday, 7 July 2018 09:01 (eight years ago)

where im from its short for famine and a macroaggressive term

― repartee is deft (darraghmac), Saturday, 7 July 2018 09:09 (eight years ago)

too soon!

― calzino, Saturday, 7 July 2018 09:10 (eight years ago)

well if they cut that shit out about the border we could start to heal, yknow?

― repartee is deft (darraghmac), Saturday, 7 July 2018 09:12 (eight years ago)

I haven't seen T May's latest imagining of a castle in the sky just yet, but I'd imagine the job's still fucked!

― calzino, Saturday, 7 July 2018 09:14 (eight years ago)

― illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 7 July 2018 09:14 (eight years ago)

stratford is a kind of france from where i'm sitting

― mark s, Saturday, 7 July 2018 10:43 (eight years ago)

instead of LA MANCHE separating us it is LA MARSH

― illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 7 July 2018 13:20 (eight years ago)

If anything here sounds like a Frenchism it's "my dude"

― mick signals, Saturday, 7 July 2018 18:50 (eight years ago)

easy there mon frere

― rip van wanko, Saturday, 7 July 2018 19:45 (eight years ago)

I'm thinking of taking up 'mon brave'.

― Alan Alba (Tom D.), Saturday, 7 July 2018 19:51 (eight years ago)

a pre-emptive self-congratulatory "you're welcome" when someone does something unexpectedly helpful

― Karl Malone, Saturday, 14 July 2018 15:31 (eight years ago)

yeah, i was gonna thank you, but not i feel like i'm just paying tribute to an asshole

― Karl Malone, Saturday, 14 July 2018 15:31 (eight years ago)

"Let's link"

― flappy bird, Sunday, 15 July 2018 20:45 (eight years ago)

do Americans say 'fam'? Sounds very British slang to me

― Gâteau Superstar (dog latin), Monday, 16 July 2018 09:01 (eight years ago)

I thought it was only disgruntled Arsenal fans who said it.

― Alan Alba (Tom D.), Monday, 16 July 2018 09:22 (eight years ago)

let it go fam, just leave it

― dele alli my bookmarks (darraghmac), Monday, 16 July 2018 11:15 (eight years ago)

yes i've heard "fam" (or "fams") in the US and it's just as annoying

― Lee626, Monday, 16 July 2018 11:15 (eight years ago)

Jamaican origin maybe? Or West Indian.
