Oh wow.
So Brat is just the name of the Album, & name of a dance (created by another person on TikTok), but the song on the album is named "Apple?"

NO WONDER I couldnt understand this!

Thanks! @NYCLatinaMe
No wonder i couldnt figure it out.

Yes, except the dance is to the song called Apple. Brat is just the album. It's a pretty catchy tune

According to the kiddos, this is "brat summer".
@Lakelife62 Which means that 35 or 40 years from now will mean: OLD, DOWDY, MATRONLY; and TOTALLY USELESS.
LOL! Right! There will probably be some other word we can't even conceive of now.
My grandkids use Skibidy toilet rizz or Skibidy Ohio rizz...rizz meaning "charisma". I'm lost unless I ask and then they don't want to discuss it.

Yikes, @Lakelife62
I think I'd stay away from all those words or phrase. Seems dangerous.
From what i understand Skibidy Toilet was a cartoon of a man with a toilet bowl body. So Skibidy Toilet Rizz would mean someone who had the charisma of a toilet bowl, I'm guessing.
We had our weird stuff too- gross became disgusting rather than a measure of weight, bogan was a "gross" person, scrub was a lazy, unmotivated man and not what you did to the toilet, tubular was not a shape, but an expression of awesomeness.
There's so many from each generation that I had to look these up (except for scrub and gross) and it brough back a lor of cringey memories.

I'd never heard of any of those words?? Maybe also slang is regional too? Which would add further complication.

It is the old use of a word for opposite effect. When I was in school back in the 70's and early 80's saying something was "bad" meant it was good. Saying "that is bad" was a compliment. I guess every generation has their opposite meaning word.

If the Powers that be can keep track of all this, maybe the famous, or infamous, Slang Dictionary needs updating?

HA! @lgfan

Until the explanation above for Brat, it didnt occur to me abt flipping opposite. Adds to the confusion. Maybe that's to add to its exclusivity??

"Rizz-basically charisma"

What is that?

I edited my post to what I think I eloquently elaborated on this lol!

"If you walk the footsteps of a stranger, you'll learn things you never knew. Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains? can you paint with all the colors of the wind?"
