Folks?

[Bubblehide]

Is the idiotic 67 thing like saying right, or using run to describe wearing a shirt?

I listen to a lot of news, mostly because I work solo every day….and I’ve noticed ever since tampon used folks, nearly everyone is using the word.

Dudebro it's not 67, it's 6 7

I thought it was a list of 67 idiotic things people say.
Had to look it up, pretty idiotic.

Did you make that up on your own?

I wouldn't give any credence to anything he says.

No, he’s had the nickname tampon Tim for a while now because he made it MN school districts law to put tampon machines in boys restrooms.

It all started when kids started listening to that damn rock music and smoking reefer. Back in my day we had a little RESPECT for our elders I tell ya'. Hold on, I think I hear kids playing outside, I need to go yell at them from my porch.

What life choices did you all make that made your life so easy that you have the ability to pay this close of attention to how many times a word is used?

Brother, Im just trying to keep my head above water .

Once you get done doing that…come back and bitch about how kids just don’t want to be outside anymore.

I just bought a snorkel. I would suggest getting one that you can extend as needed.

I'm pretty sure in the upper south, "folks" is a part of about everyone's daily language. I don't hear many people use it to label their parents.

Parents=Parents
Folks= basically anyone that isn't oneself.

In the deep south, it's probably used for parents more than around here.

Where I'm from EVERYBODY called their parents folks. EVERYBODY.

It's not the new cool word. That would be "fam".

My mother in law uses this, the “fam jam” “what’s up fam”. I despise it.

Folks is used for people’s parents, my Brent’s, or older generation. I guess I haven’t seen that used around here much personally, besides the meanings I pointed out

 

[hunterjmj]

I've always said folks to refer to people parents. Pretty common term.

 

[5MilesBack]

Ok folks, let's not get so worked up over this.

That's how it's most often used in a sentence.

I’m from the Deep South. We have always used “ folks”. now skibidi toilet rizz. Is one I don’t get

 

[Poser]

I have my parents number in my phone as "folks"

Dad blamed everything on the Beatles because they started all that longhair crap.

I’m an old timer . 63 going on 80.

I been using the term folks for just about all of them years. Glad to hear it’s cool.

I think I was the only kid in my class that listened to country music in the 70s. That got cool as well it seems.

Dang maybe I’m a trend setter.

You think being fat and out of shape will every be cool.

 

[Fartrell Cluggins]

I have used folks all of my life. Not overly frequently. I haven't noticed it becoming commonplace.

Nothing chaps my ass like the pervasive use of "and so." No goddammit, use one or the other.

I also hate when "individual" is used in the place of person, man or woman. Why use the word "individual?" Is that to distinguish them from conjoined twins?

 

[kcormack]

Since when did folks become the new cool word, to use ad nauseam?

To quote the cultural icon of cool (mine anyway) stutter out the following.

"di da dida dida dida, that's all folks"
