Why do we need to 'survive' 2015? We're in December 😂😂 we've already 'survived' it whether we knew these or not

I know these acronyms are commonly used and constantly being created but why? I've survived life without the use of "phubbing" or "lit"...and ya know bcuz I didn't know these nonsensical, childish short forms doesn't mean I feel older, actually I feel wiser. I've never had to say that Netflix thing, lit about being drunk, just say it for what it is...we're entitled to our opinion and that's mine. Rather comical.

I feel old

Goddamn people take things way to seriously, always have to find something to be offended about.. I found the article amusing so GOOD job holly

I'm like almost positive if you're lit it's not from alcohol, more like Maryjane💋💨

I'm 15 and we use like all of these, only a couple aren't common at my school

haha I knew less than half of these "words" *sad face*

What about the word "savage@

These are silly.
