I just drove my daughter and her friend to their school dance.

[AlCzervik]

they're almost 13 and they never-ever stop talking. I really wish i could have a beer but i have to pick them up.

"Omg he is so foul" "Oh i know, that shirt, time for someone to call Queer Eye" "Seriously" Every time either one said "OMG" in mind i finished that off with "Becky,she looks like a total prostitute".

So i faded my speakers to the front and turned them up and went to my happy place.

1. do they also use "like" a lot?

I hear that so much from teens today.

[AlCzervik]

2. "Like" "Honestly" "Hekka" i hate that one BTW.

[ElizabethDC]

19. I've never even heard "hekka" before

and I was a teenager relatively recently . . . but I'm kinda glad I missed that one.

[SPKrazy]

3. OMG, you've got to be kidding

un-be-lieve-able OMG

:rofl:

[AlCzervik]

4. "Honestly, it was like so hekka boring" Honestly is said almost like a question.

[dolo amber]

8. My 16 yr old has taken to saying "LOL" phonetically

She says "Oh dear, Michaela's fake nail broke off today when she was picking a scab, lawl."

I have to admit complicity to this abomination. :blush: :P

[AlCzervik]

9. was that her actual sentence?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

i would have loved to hear the snark in her voice.

[dolo amber]

13. That was in fact the inagural sentence

Although I may have spelled Mikaleia: Michelaea, Mikleiahiah wrong. :eyes:

She *is* my kid so the snark potential is pretty much inevitable. Did you ever see this? :D

[AlCzervik]

14. Thats awesome! Like twins.

this is me and Miss "OMG"

[dolo amber]

15. Cuuuuuute.

We could probably make some money.

:D

[Shine]

17. Very cute!!

Ya got the gene pool action goin' on there, don't ya? :D

[ElizabethDC]

18. Not uncommon - I hear people say "OMG" all the time

LOL also.

[Ava]

5. oh mah gawd! i like totally understand

sometimes when i'm like talking to some of my b-eff-effs, i like totally think my head is like going to explode - totally serious! and i'm all like "as if, whatever!" and like then they are like "loser! as iiiffff!" and i'm like, "yeah right! like WHATEVER!"

:P :rofl:

[AlCzervik]

6. it's probably good i'm on the interwebs because when they start their code speak

i can figure out some of what they're saying. I know they think they're some modern day wind talkers.

[Ava]

7. oh no, you want secret code?

just try reading their text messages! :rofl:

[marzipanni]

10. My son is 12 1/2 and I took him to get a bithday present for a friend,

and dropped him off at the birthday party at Pizza Guys.
Either he has a bit of an allergy (never had one before), or his voice is starting to crack :). He's still a pretty affable person , and I hope he doesn't think teenagers have to be "all emo(?)" and full of angst. :silly:

[AlCzervik]

11. my daughter isn't emo--yet but she has discovered the art of rolling her eyes.

and me channeling my mother "Do not roll your eyes at me young lady" oh lord.

[rockymountaindem]

12. You think that's bad, wait until they get to high school and every other word is "fuck" or "fucking"

Seriously. I'm not a prude, but some people need to fucking expand their fucking vocabulary for fuck's sake.

[Shine]

16. LOL! I'm on the other side of that fence, gf.

I've got a 13 yr old boy and the most I get from him is grunts or embarrassed silence, especially when it comes to talking about girls his age. :D Funny...

:hi: Here, have a cyber beer, on me. :beer: Hell, I'll join ya! :toast:
