DO PARENTS KNOW TEEN SLANG? (REACT: Do They Know It?)

- "Salty," that's my jaw
right there, yo!

- Oh, "hun-ty." (laughing)

♪ (upbeat theme music) ♪

- (FBE) Today, we're gonna see
how well you know

some modern slang words.
- Okay.

I hope I'm a little hip.

- I'm not sure if I'm up
to the modern slang, you know?

I'm used to old '90s.

- I do have teenagers, so...
I'm not totally out of the loop.

- I'm familiar with a lot of them,
but I know they're

constantly coming up with new ones.

- My vocabulary is not
very appreciated at home.

I'll say certain things
and they're like, "Mom, really?"

- Don't know if I'll do well.

My son will start saying something,
and then once I pick up on it,

then he's like, "Well, I'm stopping."

- I think I'll do pretty good.

But I know quite a bit
that I just hear around me

from spending most
of my life with teenagers.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (FBE) Here is your first word.
Do you know it?

- "Stan." Sounds like a guy's name.

- (chuckling) I do not know this.

- That's slang? "Stan."

No, I don't know what that means.

- "Stan"? That's... that's a slang?

- That's my uncle's name.

That doesn't help anything, though.

I don't know "Stan."

- Somebody who's kind of old-fashioned
or somebody who's

kind of a nerd or a geek
or an old person?

No, I don't know that one.

- "Stan" reminds me of the song
by Eminem, "Stan,"

so I would call "Stan"
a guy that's obsessed and crazy

over somebody else,
you know, like a crazy fan.

- (FBE) So "Stan" is a combination
of the words "stalker" and "fan"

to describe a person who
is overly obsessed with a celebrity.

- Oh, stalker and a fan, all right.

Got them mixed in as stalker and a fan.

- (FBE) "Stan" gained popularity
thanks to an Eminem song

of the same name
about a guy who kills himself

because Eminem
doesn't respond to his fan letters.

- Okay, I remember that song.

- That escalated quickly, didn't it?

(chuckling) Stan, a stalker fan.

- I didn't do too bad then, awesome.

Very popular song,
so the moment I saw "Stan,"

that was the only thing
I could relate it to, you know,

some crazy guy, obsessed,
you know, for another artist.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (FBE) Here is your next word.
- "Tea."

I don't know what that is.

- "Tea"?

I thought I was
gon' do good on this.

- (laughing) I don't know
what "tea" is.

- I've never seen that one
before either, "tea."

- Well, I know what
the word "tea" means,

but I have a feeling it
doesn't mean like chai tea.

- I know using it like gossip,
like "spilling the tea."

- Like the Kardashians
"spilling the tea" on someone

and giving details.

"What happened? What happened?

I want to know the gossip."

- (FBE) So "tea" is some
particulary juicy gossip.

When you share the gossip,
you're "spilling the tea."

- Oh, okay, see,
now that's new to me.

I never heard that word before.

- Mm-hmm, I'm
all about that tea. Mm-hmm.

- I like it.

They should talk about
gossiping like,

"Ooh, I got some tea, girl.
I got to tell you something."

I'm gon' use that one.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (FBE) Here is your next one.
Do you know it?

- "Bop"?
I have no idea.

- It's gotta stand for something.

- I never heard "bop."
That's a new slang?

Man, I'm getting old.

- "Bop," like a dance,
like "bopping around"?

- "Bop. Bop."
A "bop."

I don't know this one.

- Oh my gosh! No, I don't know it.

I'm almost afraid
to find out what it is.

- (FBE) "Bop" is used to say
when a song is really good,

so you'd say, "The song's a bop."

- Really? Okay, I should
have guessed that.

- "This song's bop."
That sounds very retro.

That does not sound
that fresh to me.

- I'm used to "bomb."
(chuckling) Old-school.

That's fresh.

- "The song is a bop."

Man, I gotta see it
in action or something.

I'm-- (laughing)

- Do they know how old
this is in reference to music at all,

like a bebop?

That was old even for me.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (FBE) Okay, so
do you know this one?

- "Hunty." Maybe someone who's hot.

I don't know.

- (laughing) I don't know
what "hunty" means.

- It kind of looks like "honey,"
like somebody you like

or somebody you're interested in.

- Is it like calling your girlfriend
"my honey" or something else?

My "hunty"... my "hunty tea."

It's "hunty." (laughing)

- Like "honey"?
That's "my hunty."

That's my boo.

"Hunty"?

I don't know, maybe
that's my baby, that's my thing.

- Well, that's gonna be
a combination of something.

[Bleep]-ty."
[Bleep]-ty?

Oh, that's right, honey [bleep].

- Oh, "hun-ty." (laughing)

With my gay friends
and drag queens, for sure,

it's like, "Oh, hunty."
I love it.

It's almost like (whispering) hunty,
honey and that other word.

The see-you-next-Tuesday word,
but, like, in a nice way.

- (FBE) So "hunty"
is a term of endearment,

combining the words
"honey" with the C-word.

- Oh, oh, oh! (laughing)

- (FBE) So RuPaul's Drag Race
helped make this word popular.

So, for example,
to compliment a friend,

you could say,
"You look fierce, hunty."

- Fierce and-- wow.
And that's popular?

- Beautiful. Fantastic.

Well, I'm definitely using
that word more often,

and thank you, RuPaul.
Where have I been?

- Oh! (laughing) Okay.

That is a little bit...
hmmm, extra,

but, you know, RuPaul is extra.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (FBE) Okay, so
do you know this one?

- "OTP," I don't know.

- I don't know what it is.

- I know what "OPP" means.
I don't know "OTP."

- Sounds like "OPP."

You guys down with OTP, right?

I don't know.

- "OPP," I know, but "OTP"?

Man, I have no clue.

- "On the point." (gasping)

"The OTP!"
They are on the point.

- "OTP," which is "one true pair."

The person you're
supposed to be with

or the old person term
is your soulmate.

- (FBE) OTP stands for
"one true pairing."

"OTP" is a couple
you are really rooting for

either from TV or movies,
or even a celebrity couple.

- Oh, that's nice.
"One true pairing."

Got it.

- Harry and Hermione, you know,
they're an OTP,

or, you know, I ship that,
and those who should be together.

- My daughter lives
on Tumblr and I feel like

I have heard her say
"one true pairing."

She had to say it out for me
because I wouldn't know

what it meant.

- Y'all teaching me something new.

I gotta catch up on these words.

It's like, man, I gotta get
with the program

because I-- man,
I'm back in the '90s.

I'm wondering why my teenagers
be saying "I be wack."

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (FBE) Here is your next word.
Do you know this one?

- "Salty."

(chuckling) I hope that
has to do with bad luck.

- "Salty." I know the way
it used to be used,

cussing or swearing.

- "Salty" means that
you had some attitude.

- Just somebody being a hater,
they, like, being salty.

- Well, I do know
what something is,

but it's a little salty.

It's, like, a little testy.

- Like if someone's upset
about something,

they're feeling salty.

- Now, that's one I use.

That means when somebody
gets a little bit jealous

or a little bit mad,
you get a little salty.

- "Salty," that's
my jaw right there, yo!

Yo, I be salty!

Yo, I always say
that word right there.

You get hot, you know
what I mean? You're salty.

Something you didn't do--
something is salty.

Somebody did something to you.

- (FBE) Salty is when
you or someone else

is angry, agitated or bitter.
- All right, salty.

It makes sense, though, salty.

You're salty, dude.

- You don't want to be salty, Kri.
It causes wrinkles.

- Whew, got one!

Salty people, you just give
them a little sugar

and move right along.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (FBE) Last one.
Do you know it?

- "Clap back."

I haven't heard that word before.

- Come back at me,
give me a call back.

- No! Wow, I'm
really 0 for 0 for 0 for 0.

- Probably, like,
I'll clap back at you.

You say something to me,
I'm gon' clap back.

I'm gon' clap you back.

- It's basically when someone
tries to come for you,

you go right back at 'em.

- They said something insulting,
and then you got 'em back.

You got revenge.

- Somebody says something,
you know, bad about you.

You say something bad about them,
like, right away.

- It's basically trying
to get back at somebody

that basically got at you.

You know Ja Rule the rapper?
He had a song called "Clap Back."

He clapped back on 50 Cent.
That was one of his songs.

- (FBE) So "clap back"
is when you have the perfect

and snappy comeback
to someone's diss or jab.

- Oh, okay.

Maybe I don't hear it
because I just always have them.

- I always think of a good comeback
about an hour or two later,

and it's just too late.

- I call it "wit".

Some people call it
"smart assed-ness."

I just think I'm sassy.
