We talk like that because that’s ‘dope’

GOAT

Greatest Of All Times. 
“Her heels are so GOAT.”

LOL 

Laugh Out Loud, the most abused 
acronym, LOL has found new ways to live on:
a. Spoken out of courtesy, preceded by a fake laugh to keep the respect of a person in a public gathering, who assumes his/her remark is funny, when it’s not.   

b. Instead of a hearty ‘ha ha ha’ or ‘he he he’ or in Santa’s case ‘ho ho ho’, you go “lol lol lol  lol lol lol....”

Ace game 

New synonym for ‘A-game’. To put your best foot forward.
“Virat Kohli brings his ace game to cricket.”

How you doin’?

This Joey Tribbiani-quote is still in vogue. Couple it with a chessy grin, raised eyebrows and suggestive glance as a comical gesture or to freak someone out.

The Lannisters send their regard

Taking off from Game of Thrones — After intentionally hurting to exact revenge, then walking up to the person, mouthing these words and walking away into the blue.
Example: Letting the professor know about the enemy attempting proxy attendance, then walking upto the person smugly and saying, “The Lannisters send their regard.”

It’s gonna be Legen...Wait For It...Dary! 

Neil Patrick Ha rris’ legendary Barney Stinson rocks this phrase into a classic earworm. The mid-statement breakup, joyously recited, triples the impact of any situation.
“Tonight’s gonna be Legen-Wait For It...Dary! Legendary!”

Minion

Used to make fun of someone very short. 
“From up here, you like a minion, bro.”

Hashtag

Emphasis. 
“Omg! That girl, hashtag glamourous.”

AF

As F**k. An adjective, the new ‘very’, used at the end of a sentence.
“I’m tired, AF,” or “He’s irritating, AF”

Che

Anything that’s blah, boring, so whatever. 
“The way he did his hair looks so che.”

Duckface

Someone who pouts at any given opportunity, especially while taking selfies. 
“This duckface knows no other pose!”

On fire

Someone or an act that stands out in a crowd. 
“Her outfit is on fire” or “Check out his dance moves! He’s on fire!”

Tumse na ho payega 

Translates for ‘You won’t be able to do that’. Deflating another’s ego before he/she attempts a trick.
“Don’t even try to take on that car. Tumse na ho payega.”

A-hole 

To cushion the blow of ‘A******’ with a polite, playful condensed form.    
“He’s such an A-hole for cheating on her.”

#ThrowbackThursday 

Reposting or posting a photograph or comment that’s a blast from the past
*PAP* with caption “My bro and I in circa 1999”.

Bae

For those who find it cumbersome to pronounce the second ‘b’ in ‘babe’.  Boyfriends used to call their girlfriends ‘bae’. Then girlfriends called their boyfriends ‘bae’. Now everyone calls their besties, love-interests, siblings, anyone cute, ‘bae’.
“My bae and I went shopping yesterday.”

Bomb 

Anything that’s awesome or sexy. English for pataka. 
“That drink was bomb”, “this boy is bomb”, “you’re bomb.”

Cray

Whoever invented this word couldn’t stand the ‘zee’ whistle-sound of ‘z’ in crazy. 
“He comes to class with a hangover, every Monday. He’s so cray.”

Nope, it doesn’t mean ‘stupid’ or ‘drugs’ anymore. It’s the new ‘awesome’.

Envy mixed with admiration and aspiration in a particular situation.
“This couple is #couplegoal”, “That outfit is #outfitgoal”

Tubelight

A dimwit. 
“She got the joke after we were done laughing. Such a tubelight.”
