I hate the terms “sybau” and “pmo”

r/

I cannot STAND when I open up a comment section and see people commenting things like “omg sybau ts pmo fr.” We’ve become lazier and lazier and it’s driving me insane!!! Same with the terms “not me thinking !!!” Or “not you doing __!!!” It seems REALLY condescending when it’s used to talk about someone else and it just seems so stupid to use it in general. I don’t know why it irritates me so bad but I HATE it! It’s also fueling even more negativity as if we don’t have enough of that. Nobody’s allowed to do anything anymore without someone getting angry or making fun of them. Bring back kindness.

    If you really hate it, use it in the cringiest way possible or just use it every day instead of telling people not to use it. This is the best way to eradicate any slang.
    Telling people not to use it would make them use it harder.

    Some people might unironically use the phrases but funnily enough the majority of what you see of it on Tiktok is just crappy copypasta intended to do exactly what it’s doing to you & annoy you.

    I would hate it if this is actually unpopular, like I get some acronyms like “lol” and a few others bug making a entire sentence with them and expecting people to understand them or get familiar with them is insanity
