All the home body white boys that play SF4 bite the slang they hear on streams from NY hella hard and don’t know when to stop saying it, [media=youtube]FoWnIhDuW4g"[/media]?
Salty is all that and a bag of chips.
did you get that memo?
we need to talk about your TPS reports.
Chicks are sandy, cause they have vaginas…and when you get sand in it…I’ve already messed up.
I’ve always wondered waht “Put on blast”, meant. I always picture a car A/C on full blast and making people feel real cold. “Stay Free” was okay as long as it’s used in moderation. Unfortunately, for an example if we had Daigo vs Mike Ross in SSF4 and Ross gets edged out in the set, we’d see tons of “Stay Free Mike Ross” posts when Ross is clearly a good player. It’s a little annoying because the people yelling the shit can’t play or use the old “I don’t even play this game” excuse. Someone is not free in a game if it comes down to the wire and they barely lose.
*shrug
When you lose to Dudley do people get thorny?
annoying slang is in everything, im tired of people using fail, epic, win, in real life to sound nerdier. also actually saying “lol”,“wtf”, and “brb” out loud
people watch alot more streams now, they hear people from everywhere saying all kinds of different slang and everyone in the community starts saying the same shit. it’s like when you move to a certain area and pickup the dialect.
i thought we realized the FGC is retarded as fuck a while ago
Ya it was getting pretty ridiculous for a while.
But anyways ive been dying reading this thread
Shit was being said in the early 90’s, just getting recycled. Funny shit too that teenagers from north Cali think they made up hella. On blast, i’d like to give a shot out, being recycled too. Fresh, dope, things of that sort. Word. One of them will bring back eat a dick. Most original shit in awhile is siiiiick… Still that seems early 90’s.
^I haven’t stopped and will never stop telling niggas to eat dicks. In fact, I told my boy today to eat a dick and he told me to eat a bag of dicks.
No homo.
In 2007, when i was playing Guilty Gear and my roomate got 10 wins in a row, i was pissed. He was like" Dont be salty?" I was like what the…
Catchy Memes keep us together? idk. I remember when my boss was talking to his pissed off employee and said " Whats wrong you got sand in your vagina?" I died laughing. Yes It has been killed like family guy jokes lol
Btw since when have people been saying " Legit" so much?
most of these terms sound eastcoast ish tbh and old. I wouldn’t be surprised if you dudes brought back “funky fresh” or “molded”
OR we could let Soulja Boy dictate whats cool to say like…" WHAT HANNENIN?"
or… we can come up with our own slang. be original or is that too much :shake:
I dont see what the problem with “salty” is. I’'ve only been playing fighting games for a little while now but when I first started, I thought it was a great word to describe the feeling that people get after taking a loss.
Imagine if you ate a handful of salt. It would taste extremely bitter and you’d probably be pissed off and spitting everywhere. I think that’s pretty good imagery. Saying “That guy is salty” sounds a lot better than “That guy is bitter and angry.”
I think nitpicking about the other terms that pop out of the FGC and more specifically the EC is kinda ridiculous too. Lots of subcultures have their own slang. I think the real problem, and where I think it irks me a little too, is when people are just spitting off all these catch phrases in order to try really hard to fit in. People like that stick out like a sore thumb. I’m not a sociologist or anything so I can’t really tell you about the intricacies of that kind of stuff. All I’m saying is that the problem is less with the words and more with how (or perhaps which) people try to use them.
I’ve heard the word “salty” since 2003 in the Chicago area, thus its use started way before SF4.
Shout-outs to salty Pringles “On Blast” flavor.
I been telling salty/mad people to drink a coors light(it has the vent hole).
