Its because mainly they’re hood slang, and the way they use some of these words don’t mean what they describe in the video or like one or two we don’t use anymore but alot of this langos is from the Bronx n Brooklyn mainly. Im from the Bronx n we still use it
Bridge and Tunnel means people who go into the the city from mostly Jersey, Long Island and surrounds. But it also means try hards from the suburbs who can't make it full time in NYC.
I love this! Especially our black young ppl weighing in from across the pond. Words I use as an old lady, brick, herb, and bridge and tunnel. B&Ts are usually referred ppl at a Manhattan bar or club who are clearly from NJ, Long Island, Upstate NY etc, on the weekend and it’s obvious that they’re not used to partying in the City. We can tell by their clothes.
Lived in NYC my entire life, Never heard of wocky Never heard of blowin' mine (at least not the definition that was given) Bridge and Tunnel might be an older generation slang term because no one my age says that Primary definition of a joint is weed thats rolled up in white rolling paper

And i barely hear joint anymore some people do it depends like roll up a blunt or like spark up shit like tht we say too but a joint is the raw paper u use by definition and i do agree bridge and tunnel is old slang cus nobody says tht unless we say like for directions etc n i hear nobody say it
Being from NYC them saying yerrr is hilarious to me lmfao and wocky don't necessarily mean quick and irrational it can mean just weirdly or odd or just simply bad like yoo that coffee was wocky like no good but you usually say like yo duke right there moving wild wocky deadass but NYC slang is a whole nother language in its own so yeah lmfao but yerrrrrrrrrrt!! 🤣
i’m from ny, i don’t know half of these, some ive heard but they’re not used in the way buzzfeed defined them, like “joint” is definitely either smoking weed or a restaurant lol and “dub” means win haha
@@katiegaglio I dunno, I'm from BK, and nobody really use dub to mean a win like that no more, but you right, I never heard joint used like that and nobody really says herb anymore, the rest was 100% accurate.
Lmao, bruh deadass fully comes from NY bro, that's why everyone when they imitate New Yorkers as jokes say it, cause we be sayin it all the time, especially us from Brooklyn. The lingo got exported a long time ago is all, same way glizzy got exported outta DC.
@@KiraDaBeastNY it was specific to New York like 17 years ago bruh. Now it's used across the States. It's no longer some slang unique to New York. You get what I'm sayin?
@@dannjrad2109 I mean bro we basically just said the exact same thing, you just got a little more specific. I said that the lingo got exported "a long time ago" 🤷🏾♂️
