Isn’t the kid reading his book remarkable in the movie? Like, Dr. Grant’s whole deal with these kids is realizing not all kids™ are bad, and this is the first denial of his expectations?

yes… also, all generations have stupid slang that doesn’t make any sense by itself, and they drop most of it as the get older….

  Generations! People in the 90s talking about how dumb the 80s stuff was is the best way. The dumb belongs to the decade, not the people.

  Exactly! Here are a few I remember from the late-90s, early 2000s:
  
  Da Bomb dot com
  
  Eat my shorts
  
  Fly
  
  Home Skillet
  
  Not!/Psych!
  
  Sup? - friends transformed to "wassabiii"
  
  crunk
  
  bad
  
  biotch
  
  served/owned - served is dead, but “owned” lives on as "pwned"
  
  chillax
  
  fo shizzle
  
  holla
  
  Most of that is probably unintelligible to kids these days, and most were all the rage when I was a kid. I say literally none of that today.
