we could DELVE into literally any topic other than the three word explanation you are begging google to reveal to you whilst weeping silently in your car on your lunch break in line to pick up a cold sandwich behind fifteen door dashers at the burger king drive-thru.

is that what you'd like to DELVE into today?

you precious little organic life form with (i assume) 3-65 fingers?

Words are held up by the belief of people. The use and repetition will in turn fortify and canonize. Only reason we have current writing and linguistic patterns is because someone somewhere decided these things. It's just so ancient to mankind that we do not have the writings to understand when or why. Who or where?

lol bro is tweep donkled rn

Look at this guy over here linguistics mogging us.

[-] exasperation@lemm.ee 49 points 1 day ago

"Mogging" as a term originated in the early 2000's and went mainstream-ish in the late 2000's when the "pickup artist" community started getting attention in places like the New York Times. The people who originated it are probably like 45-50 years old now.

Quick etymology: comes from these pseudoscientific douchebags trying to name the phenomenon where a man tries to subtly belittle another man in front of women, establishing that he's the AMOG (alpha male of group), eventually became a verb amogging or mogging, and then various specific types of this behavior earned prefixes: heightmogging, etc.

The fact that it has this kind of staying power, 20 years later, is the surprising part.

As a 60 year old dude I have never heard of such a thing.

Back in my day, if a lady did this in front of you, you were expected to tuck a dollar in her wasteband.

As a 50 year old dude I am in agreement with you fellow oldster. I have also never heard this term.

[-] dryfter@lemm.ee 8 points 1 day ago
