Just as an fyi, the word you are looking for is jibes. Jive is something else entirely.



I'm with you!


Oh look it's jibe's account!


Excuse me stewardess, I speak jive.


I'm going to start using malapropisms so people know I didn't use an llm to write things


Cut me some slack, Jack.



"Jive" is anacronistic black American slang for bullshit.


Interesting I did not know that I would have used jives :) thanks

Just as an fyi, the words you are looking for are ages/eons/an eternity.


If we are having this meta-discussion, you can usually guess a person's age by which letter they are elongating. Millenial generation uses the vowel (as above) but gen alpha elongates the syllable - "longggg". Doesn't add anything to the convo just an interesting tidbit.


What has HN become…?


Same as it ever was


...Talking Heads


hooo nooo


The only thing worse than complaining about this is being the guy complaining about the guy complaining about this. So congratulations on being second most annoying.
