2010s Slang and Phrases That Should Go Away In The New Decade

By Joey Tack on December 30, 2019

As the 2010s come to a close, people are making lists of words and phrases they’d like to go away in 2020. Did they miss anything?

Slang we should leave in the 2010s, for context:

“Adulting”
“Bae”
“Broke the Internet”
“It’s lit”
“Hot take”
“Extra”
“lowkey/highkey”
“Fam”
“Mood”
Duck lips (Not a phrase, but come on)

On board with keeping “slaps” going, because it slaps.

We stan
___isoverparty
Ok boomer
That’s on periodt (still don’t know what this means)
Clapped (don’t know what this means either)
Mood
Oof
Literally (when it’s not literally)

There’s probably a lot more just from this year. Everyone seemed to catch stupid in 2019.
