The Secret Origins of Gen Z Slang: From Gamers to Drag Queens 🎮✨
Here’s something most people don’t realize about Gen Z’s slang—many of their most iconic phrases actually come from gaming culture and drag communities before hitting mainstream use. Take “NPC”—originally a gaming term for “Non-Playable Character”, it’s now used to call someone generic or lacking personality. Or “Slay”, which has been a staple in drag culture for decades, but now dominates everyday speech, meaning to succeed effortlessly. So next time someone says “ratio” or “rizz,” just know—you might be quoting gamers and performers without even realizing it. 🎭🎮✨ Want another deep-dive into Gen Z lingo origins? 🚀
