My girlfriend thinks she’s an Alt girl. But in my opinion she’s more of a Ctrl freak.
Maybe you should Esc.
She Del all other options for you.
Sorry, I’ll see myself out.
Alt girl?
'Alt' is Gen Z's alternative youth subculture, like Emo for millenials, goth/ punk for Gen X, etc.
Punk/goth/emo were still distinct. Alt was just an umbrella term. Pretty sure that’s how Alt-TikTok works too.
The main difference I think is that “alt” used to have more of an othering flavor because it was coded for outsiders, maybe grownups. So if you ever used it to describe yourself, air quotes were implied, like “skater boy.”
Gen z seems more comfortable using the umbrella term. Perhaps less concerned with getting tagged for posing. Shrug
Ah okay, thanks.
Yes, please
