How it feels to see the current gen's slang be: "dih ahh skibidi rizz bih gyatt fanum tax ohio mog mew sigma voidmaxx ratio'd the aura no cap bussin or torch frl 💀🧢"
Overview
The meme is split into two sections: the top section contains text listing a dense, nonsensical string of popular contemporary Gen Z and internet slang terms including skibidi, rizz, gyatt, fanum tax, sigma, ratio'd, no cap, bussin, among others, followed by a skull emoji and blue baseball cap emoji, framed as the experience of encountering current generation slang. The bottom section is a reaction screenshot of actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Selina Meyer from the TV show Veep, who is laughing nervously with the subtitle '(laughing nervously) what the fuck?', perfectly capturing the feeling of being completely disoriented and unable to understand the overwhelming amount of new, unfamiliar slang used by younger people online.
