WalkingPlague 02/08/24 4:58:32 PM #8:	lately a lot of older terms from when i was a youngster now have new and/or multiple definitions. cap = getting shot or playing the dozens. now cap means lying. drip = reference to bloods or all red attire now drip your outfit is really nice. rizz i never heard of until recently unless it was an east coast term originally. ebonics by Big L helps if you want to learn new slang or remember older terms. --- I may look calm, but in my head, I've just killed you three times. <cite>WalkingPlague posted [p:978731889] in "Rizz" I c...

Foppe 02/08/24 4:58:45 PM #9:	The expression goes back to the 1500s, when you might cap an anecdote, quotation, or verse as part of a verbal jousting game. By the 1800s, capping was a way of competing by telling a better joke than someone else, and by the 1940s, Black Americans were using the verb to cap when trading ever more exaggerated insults, otherwise known as the dozens or the dirty dozens. In that way, capping became a synonym for stretching the truth. --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site.

Aristoph 02/08/24 4:59:57 PM #11:	I got curious and googled. Seems like most people attribute it to black slang, mostly from 90's hiphop. "High capping" was a term used to mean you were lying or exaggerating to make yourself look better. So if you said "no capping" after something, it meant "no, really, this actually happened." --- PSN ID: Aristoph https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj5ydFYxnEODxpQeBswmiAA <cite>Aristoph posted [p:978731933] in "Rizz" I c...

Yeah, "cappin" was "Yo' mamas, butt so big..." outlandish shit said for joking effect. "No cap" just meant you weren't joking. Pretty much the same as the expression is used today.
