🌼NOELENE🌼 is 🫦SICK🫦

Nothing says street slang like taking a bad thing and using it to mean good. Much like Wicked, Nasty, Filthy, or even just… Bad. When you mean… Good.

Sick began among young surfers and skaters in the 80s and 90s who would describe sweet tricks as “sick” because you had to be “sick in the head” to try them. It’s very Red Hot Chili Peppers, house party, X-Treme Games vibes.

Over time, sick just sort of came to be about anything and everything. Like:
Sick song
Sick docs
Sick teacher (nah, they’d never say that it’s to eager for the 90s grunge screen)
Sick long hair (for dudes)
Sick tongue piercing
Sick tatt

Bonus points if you say it’s TOTALLY sick. With a very drawn out ‘O’.

🌼KIRA🌼 is a 🫦DAG🫦

Nothing says Dag like buying up snacks at the servo late at night, asking the cashier to turn up an old boppy song, and doing stoppid moves to make your mates laugh. À la the iconic Reality Bites scene.

Dag is possibly the *best* Aussie word ever. In fact, it should be a part of the citizenship test.

Alongside a raft of other daggy stuff like:
Tracky Dacks
Dancing the Nutbush
Chanting to The Horses
Quoting Kath and Kim
Telling Dad Jokes

In fact, it’ll be your dad who can be relied upon to tell you that a DAG is the scruffy wool hanging off a sheep’s bum. True story. Not ironic. Iconic.

🌼JOSHUA🌼 is 🫦WHATEVER🫦

Whatever is a full sentence. Volumes are spoken with this simple phrase.

Urban dictionary states that the loose meaning is “I don’t care what you think and I’m done talking to you”. But it can do so much more than that. Like…
You suck
Not listening
Yeah, sure
You’re nuts

It’s rich and full-bodied, agile and cutting. It’s downright dismissive. Or it can be passive-aggressive.

Paired with an eye roll and forming a W out of your thumb and forefinger on both hands, it was popularised by Clueless in 1995 but this one is evergreen.

🌼SUNNY🌼 is 🫦FLY🫦

Oh yeah, she’s pretty fly!

And what comes next -
(for a white guy)
Yes. We all know the song.

Oh yeah, we loved to co-opt words and phrases from the African American community back in the 90s. And if you’ve ever heard of more recent terms like “delulu” and “slay” you’ll find there is no end to this trend. Did you know that African American Vernacular English (AAVE) is its own distinct language group/ dialect and many voices from the black community believe that their terms should be used exclusively by their group? Look it up on TikTok where AAVE misappropriation and thought pieces about it are rife.

It’s food for thought - or an idea you can REALLY BITE down on (hehe).

Fly means you are dressed in a stylish, fashionable manner, and was first coined in the 1920s Jazz Era where fellas would put on the ritz for a night on the town.

🌼BETH🌼 is 🫦WASTED🫦

Ever been so frazzled, stressed out, overwhelmed of intoxicated that you’re a bit out of your mind?

If this was the 90s, man, you’d be totally WASTED.

You know, like waste, like rubbish, in a bin. Trashed. Done. Ready to be thrown away.

Like the kids say today -
Toasted. Cooked.

So pull on your ripped genes, baggy, slung askew, hook your thumb into the front belt loop, sling your greasy hair all over your shoulder, c**k your chin up and be all like, “man I’m totally wasted”.

Feels better, right?

Some people are still recovering from things that were said to them in Year 8.

Bullying doesn't always end when school does. The impact can stay with us for years, affecting self-esteem, confidence, body image, anxiety, trust, and relationships.

Healing is possible. You deserve support that helps you rebuild a sense of safety, confidence, and self-worth.

If this resonates with you, know that you don't have to carry it alone. 💛 Book with our team today.

“High-functioning” can sometimes become a compliment that hides how much effort something is actually taking.

If your productivity is fuelled by panic, your perfectionism is fuelled by fear, or resting makes you feel guilty rather than restored, it might be worth paying attention.

You don’t need to be falling apart to deserve support. Book via the link in the bio.
