definition: “"crashing out" is slang, primarily used on social media, to describe a loss of emotional control and impulsive behavior, often stemming from feeling overwhelmed or burnt out. it can involve reckless actions, an emotional meltdown, or a complete breakdown. essentially, it's when someone reaches a breaking point and acts out with little regard for consequences.” that is quite literally what she did…
Girl they got you twisted up don’t they. You can see the perversion of aave with the term of “crashout” but can’t acknowledge the perversion the constant vulture pick and choose character of Ms. Hurricane- hey not saying it’s wrong or right but damn girl at least be consistent w it 😭
that is not the original meaning, but like a lot of other times people take aave and create a new, watered down meaning. the original meaning is someone who is willing to throw their entire life away and risk the safety of themselves and others around them over seemingly no reason
i think it’s a little unfair to assume everyone needs to source slang from reddit and tiktok to be valid. that’s not how we were taught to evaluate information. not everyone has the same experiences or exposure to certain meanings— that doesn’t make them less black or less informed. language evolves, and multiple definitions can coexist without needing to accuse people of lying.
girl why are you acting like aave is a science, i didn’t say your current definition is wrong and of course there’s going to be more definitions that align with that because that is what it has turned into, however it is not the original definition, you’re treating history like a science and it’s not, also why are you trying so hard to argue on this??
first of all, i simply asked you where you got your definition from bc i couldn’t find it when i looked it up. i never said you were lying nor did i say your definition was incorrect. i just asked where you found it bc i couldn’t find that specific definition. and when i asked you why should i consider tiktok, reddit, or urban dictionary as credible sources, you told me that those are reliable sources for the black community and that i “should know this.”
im saying you should know that mainstream media often whitewashes black history, “she did crash out. that is a fact.” yes in todays terminology she did “crash out”, however my post is to point out that the term “crash out” has become severely watered down, i don’t understand why you’re trying so hard to argue when we both aren’t wrong
you keep asking why i’m ‘arguing so hard,’ but i’m literally just defending myself after you came at me condescendingly and were super passive aggressive just because i asked where your definition was from. and honestly, what was even the point of your original post? if it was just to say the definition changed—okay? cool? that still doesn’t change the fact that by today’s meaning, huda did crash out. so what exactly are you arguing for?
