I've got a pretty big age gap in my slang hearing range. It's either 30ish or elementary school age up in here.
One commonality I've seen with today's slang is to take a noun and make it into a verb. Example: Slang: Girl Imma wife you. Translation: I want to make you my wife. Slang: She clowned that fool. Translation: She made that guy look like an idiot
I'm trying to read Amazing dope tales by stephen gaskin, but it's full of 60s slang (sometime I don't understand half of what i'm reading :/) Like what does "to cop someone" means ?

I say "I'm down" but I don't say "I'm down for that" Anymore, I find myself speaking children's slang/jibberish, such as "drink you wah-wah" or "one, two, freeee" I can't believe myself. My child probably will have speech delays.
Hahaha! Yea I walk around talking bout lolo (what Cason calls lotion)... like "it's LoLo Time!! yayy.. it's LoLo time!!"
