“Fam” is aave whereas “my dude” has gotta be white person talk so I’m way more comfortable with white ppl saying “my dude”

Omg “hard” or “soft” anything for me. Too much!

What everyone really needs to accept is that it’s horribly grating to hear anyone say anything that anyone else has ever said before

"fam" grates on me a bit. The bf's podcast facebook group call each other "fam bam" all the time which is arrrrgh
i also dislike virtue signalling as a phrase because it is used pejoratively by MRA cunts a lot.

that "fam" shit is really nauseating, but I suppose slang reaches the saturation point of annoying as fuck very fast these days, and we are all bad.
― calzino, Saturday, 7 July 2018 08:55 (five years ago) link
"fam" in my neighborhood is said almost every sentence, it's as common as "mate", it's just a filler word, scarcely noticeable
― illegal economic migration (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 7 July 2018 08:58 (five years ago) link
I'd never heard it until recently. Is that commonly used in a French language or french speaking Anglais context?
― calzino, Saturday, 7 July 2018 09:01 (five years ago) link
where im from its short for famine and a macroaggressive term

yes i've heard "fam" (or "fams") in the US and it's just as annoying

(xp) I wouldn't have thought the US picked it up from the UK, so I imagine it must have come from the Caribbean community. Unless Arsenal TV is really popular in the US.
― Alan Alba (Tom D.), Monday, 16 July 2018 12:36 (five years ago) link
I’m fine with ‘fam’ and have been for the past 10 years or so.

some people on the internet seem to think a 'stan' is a celebrity who is the object of a fan's obsession:

I really applaud the way he stood up for @chloebennet and women in general. Proves he is maturing and tackling issues that need to be spoken and the objectification of women by @ksi is one of them. Proud to call him my stan ❤️ pic.twitter.com/cUpBL5okDy— vic (@logansmeme) July 29, 2018
in another decade this will have become the dominant usage, and anyone who tries to correct it ("have you even heard that Eminem song from 30 years ago?") will be written off as a joyless prescriptivist windbag 😔
