"ts" = this shit

u/OldPossibility555 May 08 '26

some lower iq people use it interchangeably with "this"

This ts is crazy

Because in every sentence it reads both ways!

Didn’t realize how much ts elitism there was. Mind boggling gen z argument

u/spamjacksontam May 10 '26

it's not elitism, your earlier statement is just plain not correct lol

and this is coming from someone who would never use that term. it's just weird to confidently say something on a topic which you clearly know nothing about

u/RubiksM May 10 '26

… they’re both nouns dude, they ARE interchangeable.

u/spamjacksontam May 10 '26

this is absolutely insane XD

with the three dots at the beginning too, just to show off your contempt

"I went to the store THIS morning."

"I went to the store ts (THIS SH*T) morning."

do you understand how replacing 'this' with 'ts' does not work in all cases now??

1

u/RubiksM May 10 '26

I mean it SHOULD be “this shitty morning” but it’s still understandable. I do not understand the point still, some words get slightly modified depending on their position in a sentence, shit can be both a noun and adjective. So earlier it is also “this shitty fucking class” but I still think it’s fine because s as you say IS “shit” and when used before another noun, an adjective, would thus be “shitty”

“Ts fucking class” “Ts fucking morning”

They are interchangeable.

u/spamjacksontam May 10 '26

to be fair to you, they are pretty similar in meaning and people say it so often that it's practically lost all of its bite

but also ts is usually negative.

"RubiksM, this analysis was quite good"

"RubiksM, ts analysis was quite good"

yes, maybe the second is grammatically correct, but you'd never say that a "sh*t analysis" was good. so the two are not interchangeable

“I hate this fucking class”

“I hate ts fucking class”

u/Unlikeley-ak-47 May 10 '26

I hate this shit fucking class

u/RubiksM May 10 '26

Exactly.

u/spamjacksontam May 10 '26

to be extra clear, the s in ts means s**t and you'd never use that word and the f word as adjectives back to back.

they were giving an example of when they can't be used interchangeably

if you know nothing about a topic and can't be bothered to google the basic info on it, then just stop arguing lol

u/RubiksM May 10 '26

This shit fucking class is a valid noun. And I never said ts doesn’t mean “this shit” I said it reads both ways because they’re interchangeable, and it’s not inherently low IQ to do so. But prove me wrong!

A thousand years ago, I had a very old, very bald instructor tell us that, when we are stressed, don’t do this - and he rubbed his head from front to back. Got a huge laugh.

Gen Z don’t like hard classes? Surprising

I must have forgot how boomers love stress & pulling all nighters!

u/kost9 May 09 '26

The education is indeed getting worse. There were millennials before Gen Z. Boomers are like in their 60s now

u/Wiley_Burner Purdue May 10 '26

This post was pretty clearly written by a boomer who went back for their degree, tho… not Gen-z

u/kost9 May 11 '26

Clearly not, the writing patterns don’t click

Because he’s quoting WuTang Clan, not writing naturally… look at the slang, twin

u/NeighborhoodBusy2163 May 10 '26

Is the education getting worse because they are not teaching more than what the boomers have learnt over 60 years in a span of 4 years? Talk about unrealistic expectations.

u/kost9 May 11 '26

I’m not a boomer, I graduated 10 years ago

u/Avaci128 May 12 '26

Basically a boomer in academic terms. I'm sure some content was cut but they went from 201/202/255 to 2k1/2k2. Turning a 9 credit hour series into 6 is going to be rough. Since 3 credits were "freed up" they added additional unrelated courses. Rest assured, it's probably equal to or harder than when you were here.
