              Yet I’m supposed to keep up with “yeet” and “sneed” and whatever the fuck memers have scooped out of their cranial mush-puddles this month?

                Hey, dude, scrub, cool, hanging out, psyched, what’s up, puke, and scoop were all once just slang words. Yet here we are, and they are pretty commonly used today.

                Sorry but a lot slang becomes general speech, so there’s no reason to resist it.

        But where does it come from? Regardless, sounds funny so I’m all for it.

          Auto/allo come from the ancient Greek words for self/other. It’s one of those pairs like cis/trans, hypo/hyper, in/ex, etc.

            I wonder if it’s alright to call myself or others “hella allistic”.

                I’m thinking of all these greentexts that talk about how OP has autism and imagining their alternative scenario where they have altism.
