using short forms is low iq now? this take gives same energy as boomers saying “kids these days”
Comment on Anon rizzes up a girl
BallsandBayonets@lemmings.world 2 months agoBy context I think the room temperature IQ poster is saying “something”, but as I am one of The Olds, I cannot be sure. I know rizz as a noun, so it doesn’t make sense in the context they used it in.

It has pretty much always been a low IQ thing when it is just about saving a negligible amount of letters. This is not your “afk” or “brb” where time is of the essence, this is similar to the people who use “u” instead of “you”.

its not about saving time its just more convinent, sm is wayy more convinent that something, and it can be understood even if you dont know with good context

Digital messaging has autocomplete, and while it ducking sucks (and is getting worse, thanks LLMs), it still does all the work for you.

I feel like it’s a low iq thing not to be able to fill in a shortened word from context. New words like rizz, on the other hand, they just have to be learnt.

Not now. Always. At least when coupled with no capitalization, no punctuation and other words misspelled. Plus personal pet peeve that they feel like they’re acronyms and should be capitalized and yet they aren’t so they aren’t.

Rizz here is to flirt.

It’s a verb too.
Rizz = charisma.
To rizz = to be charismatic.
Sometimes it’s the same as flirting, but sometimes it isn’t.

It can be used as a verb too, it just means to flirt with someone.
