Perhaps I should explain myself. I’m a millennial and also a huge Pokémon fan. I recently discovered that this is gen A’s slang. I used to be with it, and then they changed what “it” was.
Since you mentioned you were capped, I wittily decided to tap my newfound knowledge of new slang and dropped some “no caps”.
No cap = no lie, I swear it’s true.
Ong = abbreviation for “on god”, shorthand for “I swear on god”, also similar to “deadass” but I don’t hear that as much and I’m not sure of exactly what deadass means and if there are contextual variances.
fr = For real
And thus, my joke plays on your “capped” statement , since apparently gen A actually responds this way in social media, and say this aloud to their friends since this is their slang.
Ong I won’t do that again bro fr fr. That’s the last one - I couldn’t help myself.
Ong I’m officially an old fr fr
Am I doing it right?
Omg, ong ur right fam
Man, we’re cool! If I had kids they’d be cringing so hard right now.
