Gen X. There were no banned words.

Ohio is a no no word? But that's the name of a state?

Why is Ohio number three on this banned words list?

Things I remember people complaining about at various times (I don't really recall gradeschool having any)

• overuse (or use at all) of dude
• doy
• [no] duh
• dweeb
• overuse of awesome
• various "surfer" slang (we all saw the TMNT movie)
• at some point, maybe around high school, "my bad" became a thing. I still don't really like the phrase much.

I'm sure there are more locked somewhere in the recesses of my brain, but those are the ones that jump to mind. The internet was only really becoming a thing when I was in highschool and I lived in a very rural area for most of it so things spread much more slowly.

Shorter.

You know what's massive?

If this list was done for my class back when I was in school, realistically it'd just be slurs

Roflcopter, what an epic fail! The speech patterns of other generations are so not tubular or radical! Unlike my generation holds up spork we're too random to to be lame!

I think you mean to say:

"Chat, is this generation COOKED?"

How often was Emma saying Tweaking to get her own place on the board?

Seriously intrigued by “Darius noises”, hahaha

Story time! When I was in high school (~1998/99) a group of kids decided to start a “gang.” I went to a small Baptist school. Kids were bored. This was maybe second period. They called their gang the “Yo’s.” Saying “Yo” was pretty much the extent of their gang. By lunchtime a group of us got annoyed and decided to start a rival gang called the “No’s.” The Bloods to the Yo’s Crips. The sign you were a No was you grabbed a brown paper towel from the bathroom and wore it hanging from your back pocket.

Anyway, just before dismissal everyone was called into an assembly and given a lecture on gangs and told that anyone wearing a brown paper towel would receive a detention. I am still amused at how seriously our administration took this obviously stupid and juvenile joke.

Ohio being on the list is pretty funny (assuming this is in the US). Going to make geography and history classes awkward.

What grade is this, that Edging and Goon were common enough terms that they had to be included here?

"Animal noises" is very broad. Furry persecution. :(

The fact that they lose "LiveSchool points", whatever those are, presumably for saying these words, is almost worse than the fact that they have this list at all. I don't know what that system is or how it works, but I already hate it.

As always, the best way to get kids to stop using these words is to use them yourself. Use the ancient cringe-power to disarm the youth 🦹🔥

The best way to make sure everyone is saying those words is to ban them lol

What did Emma do?

I get the sense that this list is constantly growing and acts as an incentive to invent new words that end up on the list.

By that measure, Emma is a rockstar and Darius is being bullied by their classmates and the teacher.

Chat, we are so cooked. Diddy hit me with stage 5 LIGMA in Ohio.🥀 I tried to tell the huzz, but I had massive beta energy 🪫🥶 and just stood there like goofy ahh broke boy NPC.🧍No mames! 😫

As an elder gen Z I can assure you that the list of banned things in my class circa 2015 was somehow worse. Just off the top of my head.
