-Y

-Y originated from the hollow knight silksong community, more specifically, the subreddit r/silksong
it started as a version of the "bait used to be believable" meme, but instead of goku, it was hornet smoking the cigarette
then it was simplified into an MS paint version
then it was turned to ascii art
then it was watered down to -Y and -I
the - is supposed to be the cigarette and the Y is supposed to be hornet
so basically, its a watered down version, of a simplified version, of a simplified version, of a variant of a meme
the -Y -I debate went HARD, people wrote POEMS about this

schizo: -Y IS THE ONLY CORRECT VERSION, -I IS JUST DELUSIONAL CONTRARIANISM
normal person: the depths of copium fueled insanity the silksong subreddit goes into i will never understand

-Y

Significa "Bait used to be believable", ou em português "Bait costumava ser acreditável".
Originado no subreddit r/Silksong, tudo começou com uma imagem da personagem Hornet da série de vídeo-jogos Hollow Knight, fumando um cigarro, com a legenda "Bait used to be believable", mas, como Loss, foi sendo simplificado, até se tornar "-Y".
Existem algumas alternativas também, como "-|", o mais conhecido, "-K", "-V", "-y" e etc.

Team Cherry: "Amanhã, 18:30 BRT, iremos anunciar a data de lançamento de Hollow Knight Silksong!"
Você: "-Y"

y/a

y/a is "Your age". I have been trying to search it but no one defined it 😅. Usually, a writer of fanfiction sometimes includes the reader in the story, making it second-person POV. Here's some examples:

Person 1: Hey y/n, you're y/a years old right?
Y/N (Y/N stand for "Your Name", also is usually used by a writer of fanfiction): Yes!

t/s/he/y

Official pronoun for the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto the inventor of Bitcoin who could be male, female or a group of people including both genders.

“He went by the name Satoshi Nakamoto, but nobody knows who he is.”

“So if nobody knows, Satoshi could be a she, or even a they!”

“Fine, nobody knows who t/s/he/y is… don’t be so woke”

H/Y/P/S

Harvard/Yale/Princeton/Stanford, aka schools that open doors to any career you want.

MD1: Some kid just cold called me asking if I can help him get a job at Goldman Sachs
MD2: Does he go to H/Y/P/S ?
MD1: Nah, he's from Fordham
MD2: Then tell him to cold call Moody's

A fucking legend who has an 8inch penis that loves sticking his penis in girls and all the girls want to fuck is tight boy asshole.
