I'm getting better at understanding them
But damn sometimes I spend more time searching for definitions to understand it than it actually takes to read it

I surprised someone in my (very mixed age) friend group when, mid-game, I went to KnowYourMeme to look up the history of “gyatt” and what the heck it meant to see if the name of the random player “WhatTheGyatt” was inappropriate or not.
The fact that the word had history evoked surprise.
I still don’t LIKE it, but now I know where it came from and what they’re trying to say.
(I also had to look up “rizz” because my not-school-aged brain thinks it sounds like jizz and was confused why a bunch of kids would be playing cum tag????? Turns out, it does NOT mean jizz)
I think I've seen it before, but I had no idea what gyatt meant until I just looked it up. I was able to figure out, after learning it was most commonly used to express shock at seeing a large female butt, that it derived from the first syllable of "goddamn."
Shizzle for rizzle is the pitch you make to secure your requisition.
