Hi.
Welcome back to eat your crust podcast.
I'm Jisoo.
I'm Crystal.
I'm Jean.
And I'm Cindy.
All right, we have an interesting Gen Z word today.
The word is kind of originating from gaming, actually, but I have noticed recently that it's being used more in, like, TikTok or just outside of gaming Twitch community.
But I've also noticed that, like, maybe a lot of young kids are on Twitch and or, like, watching streams lately, because I think a lot of these newer slang words are coming from streams and just like, the interesting meme culture of Twitch.
So the word that we're gonna discuss today is bot.
Like robot bot.
Like b o t?
Yes, b o t.
This word is used to describe someone as dumb.
Basically, it's almost like calling someone an NPC, because in a lot of games, they kind of put you through simple tutorial game where you play against literal AI bots.
So this is kind of where the word originates from, because these AI bots are not meant to be very good.
So sometimes people just call each other bots.
Oh, you're so bad.
You're playing like a bot would.
I remember when I was first learning to play league in high school, there were definitely those AI bots that are built into the game, but I think there's also people who bought their normal accounts or something like that.
