    "You're so slamming, that I would say you got pogs."
    Let it be known that in the Year of Our Lord 2012, George Watsky invented poggers.

      bae is mostly dead so it is a moot point, but i would be interested to see a list of even 1 alternative word which means exactly the same thing

    • @flair541
      @flair541 8 років тому +1

      Firaro Soul mate.

    • @the1exnay
      @the1exnay 8 років тому +3

      +flair541 thanks. though i think bae has a less strong connotation. soulmate implies destined for each other and presumably destined for marriage or similar. whereas bae simply implies they are the most important person in your life at that instant and includes with it no implied commitment from the other party
      but "Soulmate" is very close, not as catchy, and more creepy, but pretty close.

    I love Watsky's lisp. He's so unique, and he brings hip hop back to poetry. I mean, of course this one is meant to be silly. I've just been flipping through a few of his videos, and he definitely has a new fan.

      @peircethehedgehog123 10 років тому +28

      Atleast swagger has a meaning, and is a real word. Swagger is a confidential style of walking or talking, or something.

      Mason Wheat so with that definition, can't swag be a singular term of swagger, relating to a present tense? it's just a derivative of an actual word.
