I think my Tony-hating credentials are spotless, so I want to point to them before I say: that sort of dumbfuck language is actually rampant on Tiktok. It's got weird censorship filters (shocking!) and so there's this whole culture built up around coming up with absurd replacements for basic terms like suicide, kill, etc.
It's the sort of childhood thing that Zoomers and Gen Alphas are going to look back on and facepalm over, like we're all embarrassed about some excesses of our teenage culture. But it does hit differently when it's an adult wannabe influencer who's using those absurd terms in a Hello Fellow Kids move.
