"Thirstily"?
- whoisthemachine 3y agoA weird synonym for "Desperately".
- 3seashells 3y agoBulging browsers, throbbing with Spyware, thirsty for your data. Hot single browsers near you?
- zengid 3y agoThe Verge has a long running joke that Bing is very horny.
- hotnfresh 3y agoIt’s gen z for horny.
- JohnFen 3y agoThat meaning of it predates gen Z by a long way.
- hotnfresh 3y agoI’d never in my life seen or heard it used in that sense until like 5 years ago.
- mixmastamyk 3y agoFirst encounter here, if true.
- JohnFen 3y agoInteresting. It was part of the slang vocabulary at my high school, roughly 40 years ago.
- hotnfresh 3y agoWonder if it’s a regional or subculture thing that only spread to everywhere relatively recently?
- JohnFen 3y agoThat must be the case. But I've seen it used online for a lot of years as well, so I don't think it's strongly geographical. It may have to do with what crowds you tend to run with. This reminds me a lot of when my daughter was a teenager and started using terms like LOL, etc. She thought they were modern and was shocked to learn that they'd been in use from well before she was born.
