30 and I'm fine with it if a younger person says it but if I meet a 30+ person who constantly uses it I immediately know they are idiots.

A lot of shit like "lit," "yeet," "glow up," etc.. seem pretty cringe to hear when they're used unironically in a general conversation.

Though I acknowledge that a lot of the slang from our time was probably pretty cringe too, as future slang will be.

Yikes irks me for the reason its used dismissively here on CE more so than the word itself.

Otherwise Im totally keen with the youngins using their perceived new hip slang terms to set themselves apart from us old curmudgeons.

26 yr old here:

Slang was simply a way for people to talk. Yes, slang changes, but it was never meant to be cringe worthy and outdated ANNUALLY.

I year people going like "yeet were crunk, are u gonna come with so we can get lit because if not it's gonna be awks and Ykwtfgo, ya gucci? If not go skurt"

I am like what the fuck? 90% of that shit will be outdated slang in 1 year or less. The idea is to have like their own little language to make others feel old, and they're killing the English language

I don't like lit because it tends to describe a situation I don't like as an introvert. If someone tells me to come out because it's lit, I'll try to get out of it.

Even worse than lit is when people use "cringe" as an adjective instead of using "cringeworthy". Now THAT is cringe.

I think it's more so irritating what people use it on.

Like if a dude casually shoots his shot with and girl a gets turned down. Dudes who never even attempted to ask a girl out will call it cringy.

I just love the word vexed. It's really cool and it's always made me laugh. It's a high level word.
