Yes, you are. :) I love seeing the 'new' words added by M-W each year. Sometimes I read and just laugh and laugh.

Laughing with you! We need to keep up with the new slang. I remember the first time I heard “Rad.” It cam from my sons lips. I was like, “what is rad?”

This is a free world (?) so I suppose you can write what you like. But be nice.

Am i not being nice? This is light verse…just meant to be funny. Based on the new word amirite. Words blend and are shortened in text.
