On the bright side, she cares about you! People usually don't do that to strangers.

[-] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 77 points 8 months ago

Call me an old curmudgeon, but I just cannot get behind "sm" or "smth". I hope that trend dies.

"Rizz" on the other hand is a fantastic term.

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 40 points 8 months ago

"Sm" seems too short but "smth" has been used for decades.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 15 points 8 months ago
[-] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 11 points 8 months ago

I still don't know what that means , but I always read it as "Shit in My Hands"

[-] pewgar_seemsimandroid 6 points 8 months ago

i think it's 'shaking my head'

[-] BlindFrog@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

It's def shaking my head (in disappointment). I used to think people were misspelling stg (I swear to god) in reddit til I asked there one day.

[-] taladar@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

On your standard keyboard accidentally typing m when you meant t would be quite tricky.

Well that's a different thing, as it's not an abbreviation, but an acronym. Which is why that actually gave me pause after years of using "smth" online, because I always read "smh" as "something" instead of "shaking my head."

[-] jerkface@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 months ago

It always bothered me because "shaking my head" isn't even a figure of speech people say, so how the fuck can you use an acronym form of the expression.

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Much like how gifs work, I presume.

Like you just imagine someone shaking their head. Just kine you imagine someone smiling when I type :)

The thing is, shaking ones head isn't as universal of a symbol as smiling. Some cultures have nods and shakes the other way around. Which seems somewhat weird.

[-] weker01@sh.itjust.works 2 points 8 months ago

It was a figure of writing in old chatrooms and bulletin boards.

[-] ikidd@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

I though it stood for "sadomasochism" and was trying to figure out what that meant here.

[-] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

It’s like the cooties… the key ring is the equivalent of “circle circle dot dot now you’ve had your cooties shot” because today’s youth are spoiled.

The times have surely changed. Kids and their fancy ass key rings… all I got was a titty twister & a loogey in the palm.

[-] pinkystew@reddthat.com 6 points 8 months ago

Right now it's popular to reduce words to three letters. On god. Mid. No cap. The trend seems to be removing as much information as possible while still leaving the meaning intact. It's an art form in the slang world apparently

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 74 points 8 months ago

Man, if you're throwing rizz for three months, you ain't throwing rizz.

[-] papalonian@lemmy.world 17 points 8 months ago

... So should I stop trying to date 😩

[-] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago

Maybe just aim lower.

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 72 points 8 months ago
[-] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.autism.place 21 points 8 months ago

auties usually spot other auties easily

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 18 points 8 months ago

Yeah, I assume she is, he isn’t, and she’s opening up to him a little.

Before I realized I was autistic, I had a bad understanding of it, so I definitely rejected people trying to connect with me about my obvious autism, because I thought it precluded the ability to empathize (laughably incorrect, but that’s ignorance for ya). That’s also a chance.

But it’s a greentext, so there’s probably no girl and OP’s a liar anyway :)

[-] BluesF@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago

Misread this as "aunties" and what a hilarious idea. Aunties just spotting each other and giving the nod.

[-] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 48 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

You really cannot understand this without known what "sm" means here. Can someone please explain?

Edit: Thanks for the replies. But I just realized that wasn't all that is needed to understand. Key ring drawings having meaning? Is that some esoteric shit? Probably best, I just leave this thread for some memes I do get.

[-] BallsandBayonets@lemmings.world 37 points 8 months ago

By context I think the room temperature IQ poster is saying "something", but as I am one of The Olds, I cannot be sure. I know rizz as a noun, so it doesn't make sense in the context they used it in.

[-] Technoguyfication@sh.itjust.works 17 points 8 months ago

It can be used as a verb too, it just means to flirt with someone.

[-] red@lemmy.zip 12 points 8 months ago

using short forms is low iq now? this take gives same energy as boomers saying "kids these days"

[-] taladar@sh.itjust.works 8 points 8 months ago

It has pretty much always been a low IQ thing when it is just about saving a negligible amount of letters. This is not your "afk" or "brb" where time is of the essence, this is similar to the people who use "u" instead of "you".

[-] red@lemmy.zip 3 points 8 months ago

its not about saving time its just more convinent, sm is wayy more convinent that something, and it can be understood even if you dont know with good context

[-] BallsandBayonets@lemmings.world 4 points 8 months ago

Digital messaging has autocomplete, and while it ducking sucks (and is getting worse, thanks LLMs), it still does all the work for you.

[-] taladar@sh.itjust.works 3 points 8 months ago

If you do have a keyboard actually typing out the word is usually not the limiting factor either.

[-] red@lemmy.zip 1 points 8 months ago

yeah no, i use foss keyboard which dosent collect data,

and is getting worse, thanks LLM

this is the real low iq take, there is no llm in auto complete, if you meant use of auto regressive transformer then that only made it much much better, and they were using transformer since like 2018 its nothing new

[-] angrystego@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

I feel like it's a low iq thing not to be able to fill in a shortened word from context. New words like rizz, on the other hand, they just have to be learnt.

[-] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago

Not now. Always. At least when coupled with no capitalization, no punctuation and other words misspelled. Plus personal pet peeve that they feel like they're acronyms and should be capitalized and yet they aren't so they aren't.

Rizz here is to flirt.

[-] dodgy_bagel 8 points 8 months ago

It's a verb too.

Rizz = charisma.

To rizz = to be charismatic.

Sometimes it's the same as flirting, but sometimes it isn't.

[-] greengear5@sh.itjust.works 11 points 8 months ago

I read it as 'some'.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 7 points 8 months ago

By context, I'm pretty sure it's just shorthand for "something."

[-] shasta@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

Maybe it's a drawing that attaches to a keychain

What blue drawing?

Or Like this:

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 5 points 8 months ago

I think it could be this

[-] weker01@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 months ago

Due to Internet propaganda I will never not gag when I see something about autism speaks

[-] abbadon420@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago

I never heard of it

[-] kittenzrulz123 19 points 8 months ago

Fake: Annon is 100% autistic

[-] Shard@lemmy.world 15 points 8 months ago

Anon used the word rizz. QED, anon is autist

[-] finkrat@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

You LIGHT IT UP BLUE and avoid staring at the light because it's painful to look at

And embrace all the puzzle pieces because you're a five year old even as you ascend into your adult years and continue to get infantilized

Greet her HELLO FELLOW PERSON WITH AUTISM, talk about how ABA therapy is totally not traumatizing you

It's okay, Autism Speaks will find a cure and ~~initiate a eugenics campaign to erase and prevent Autistic births~~ CURE THE AUTISM!

...

(Tone is /s)

[-] chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

Seems like a Florence Nightingale set up. Go get some, OP.
