Today, a girl came up to me on the street and said, "You have like no swag, bro." Feeling clever, I said, "At least I have a high school education." She then took out her work ID, showing me that she was a surgeon, flipped me off, then walked away saying, "This is totally going on Facebook." FML

Today, I was on Facebook when I saw a picture a popular girl I don't talk to had posted of her fake ID. She had used my full name and identical signature. FML

Today, two girls came up to me on the street and asked if they could take a photo with me for their high school scavenger hunt, because they needed a picture with a stranger. One of the girls shook her head and said to the other, "It needs to be an attractive stranger" and walked away. FML

Today, I was on the computer in the library on campus. I was Facebook-stalking a really cute girl that I often see on campus. As I'm looking at her profile pictures, I turn around and the girl is standing right behind me. She gave me a disgusted look and walked off. FML

Today, I recently graduated from high school and I went to a college party. I met these girls and told them I graduated college already, to sound cool. I then heard one of them say, "I went to middle school with you, and I was in your math class." FML

Today, I saw a girl on the subway that I knew so I started waving frantically. She gave me a really weird expression and moved quickly away from me. Then I realised that I only knew her because I had stalked her Facebook once. FML

Today, I was online dating and a girl from high school messaged me. Thinking she might have matured since we're now in our 40's, I messaged back. She then said it was a joke and that I'm still a desperate, pathetic nerd trying to score with the hottest girl in class. FML

I call bullshit. Every doctor I know goes out of the way to avoid having it known they're a doctor. Because then the stupids come out in droves looking for free advice.

This just goes to show you the dumbing down of those living today. Slang has now become an accepted use in today's language, even those supposedly with an education.

Oh please get off your soapbox. Slang has always been acceptable in an informal context, which this was.

You think people in the past didn't use slang, young whippersnapper? What's the matter, you flip your lid? Slang has always been used in informal settings by both educated and uneducated individuals. Slang is the way our language changes. If you think educated people don't use slang, consider the origin of swag, Shakespeare. And if you don't think educated people should use shakespearean slang, you shouldn't use words like assassin, skim milk, and champion

YDI for making assumptions and for thinking your rebuttal was "clever."

I don't understand why when someone uses the word "swag" or utilizes some other aspect of popular culture people automatically assume they are an uneducated idiot.
