What’s up guys, hope you’re doing well
and welcome to Ghetto Vocab.
A show were we attempt to define
the latest ghetto phrases
and expressions
based off your suggestions
The first word is bae.
Nothing comes to mind.
Bae.
I have no idea what bae means.
Honey, it went to hun. And baby, now it’s bae.
A common misconception: that bae is short for babe.
It’s not.
Instead of boo, it’s just gonna be b.
Bae means before anyone else.
Before anyone else? How would people even? So why do people call each other bae?
So if I was standing at the line at Chipotle and someone asked me if I was in line, I could
just say bae.
Almost like your first love. Almost, but it's also interchangeable with babe or baby.
So it's interchangeable with bae...baby. So it's like a time period.
You're my bae. I like that.
100 B.C. and then we got 22 B.A.E. like I'm 22 before anyone else. Am I doing this right?
Did I know that bae means poop in Danish?
What is Danish? I've never even heard of that.
Bae is Danish for poop. Uhh, I like it.
It's a language.
It's a language?
That makes me feel very uncomfortable.
Everybody has a bae then.
The next word is on fleek.
On fleek!
Oh my gosh! I want to know what on fleek means!
Wow, no. I got no idea. What it is. On fleek?
When something's on point.
On point.
The first time I heard the word on fleek was from a little girl saying her eyebrows are
on fleek and I thought it was a hygienic term.
Anything can be on fleek.
If I were to use on fleek in a sentence, I'd be like: Hey, hey there, uhm, Bill Cosby.
No!
Arielle your outfit is on fleek.
Thank you Halle.
Hey, Scooter. You know what? Sleeveless shirts are on fleek right now.
Hey, I just got a haircut. I think it's pretty on fleek. What do you think?
I think it's on fleek bae.
OK! You know I kinda thought that was what it was, but I'm like: what does fleek mean?
I honestly don't know where it originated, I just know that it's in an Ariana Grande
song.
Oop. My bra's on fleek.
Cause you know she's like 14, 15 years old herself. She's up on the new trends. Big Sean
what are you doing with your life?
From a girl that was on Vine and she said...
Oh it's a song! It's a song.
No it's not a song.
Yes, it is!
New York City. That's where it originated.
Just New York City?
Yeah, in New York City. They made it up.
On fleek is not a song.
No but there's, it's like a...oh no no no no no no no.
No.
No, no, no, no. I know it.
I have no clue where it originated from. Do you know?
Vine.
I got this. On fleek originated from a vine. A girl she was going out about to have a good
time. She said "finna get crunk."
Yeah!
Yeah.
How do I think you spell on fleek?
"We in here, finna get crunk, eyebrows on fleek!"
u-n-f-l-e-e-k?
The last word is Bye Felicia.
What? Bye Felicia?
Bye Felicia. Bye Felicia?
Bye Felicia means you need to get out of my face right now. And we don't need you in here.
Bye!
I think Bye Felicia means bye. They're just adding in someone else's name.
That means you're done with that...hoe.
You're saying bye to someone who is irrelevant.
That's what it means? I got it right! Woo hoo!
So if somebody's irritating you...you can be like Bye Felicia.
Felicia is a person that annoys you.
Felicia is that person that was not on fleek at all.
Felicia is an irrelevant person.
Not bae! The opposite of bae, which is like nae.
It's actually a 90's name. It sounds like a 90's name.
Felicia. It's a sitcom on ABC right after Step by Step.
The bad thing about this is I actually know several Felicias and they are nice people.
I know a lot of Felicias.
Really?
Not literally, but like irrelevant people.
Felicia's are people too. Hashtag.
Bye Felicia originated from a movie.
Probably originated in the Philippines.
It was an old school movie.
Early 1900's.
Bye Felicia originated from the movie Friday with Ice Cube and Chris Tucker
and they were on a stoop
Crackhead girl named Felicia, she asks Chris Tucker to borrow a car.
It sounds like a Filipino name.
Once he says no, she looks at Ice Cube and Ice Cube is just like "Bye Felicia"
and we decided oh let's use this.
He doesn't even look at her. He doesn't even make eye-contact with her.
Oh, that's where it comes from? Dang.
So good.
When would I use Bye Felicia? When someone's trying to steal my man. Bye Felicia!
My mom said, "Arielle are you going to do any chores today?" Bye Felicia.
When a garbage person asks to be on your team in pick-up basketball. Bye Felicia. No you
cannot be on my team. You are garbage. DAHECK. I just saw the way you shot the basketball.
It was not inspiring at all.
That's all we have for this week.
Did we mess up?

I'm a grown man.
