π Chungus
β»οΈA cute, chunky creature
Chungus means a cute, chunky creature. While the term was originally popularized by video game journalist Jim Sterling and online gamers, its use has increased and morphed such that you might hear someone at your local park shout "Look at that chungus!" while pointing at an adorably fat squirrel.
When Sterling began using the term chungus, it had no actual meaning. A Redditor named GaryTheTaco, however, paired the term with an image of an overweight Bugs Bunny, creating a mock-up for a fake PS4 game called Big Chungus. This image eventually went viral, leading to chungus's association with cartooinshly overweight creatures.
βExample
Aw, look at that squirrel. It's a chungus among us

π FOMO
β»οΈFear of missing out
FOMO is the fear of missing out on something exciting, memorable, or just plain better than what you are currently experiencing. For example, if your friends are going to a concert together but you are stuck at a work meeting, you might experience FOMO.
βExample
I decided to go to the game, even though it's likely going to be a blowout. My FOMO is too high
I hear ya. I would go too if I had the money

π CRAFT
β»οΈCan't remember a freakin' thing
CRAFT stands for "can't remember a freakin' thing." If you're drawing a blank on a particular fact or topic, you can tell the person you're chatting with that you CRAFT.
However, because CRAFT is an uncommon acronym, using it in a chat, email, or text message may confuse the person you're talking to. For example, if someone asks you what you did last night, and you say that you CRAFT, the person might think you spent your evening knitting or creating jewelry.
βExample
I have to take the test tomorrow, and I feel like I CRAFT!

π Clapped
β»οΈBeaten
To get clapped means to get hit, beaten, or otherwise wrecked. This slang term derives from a lesser-known definition of clap - which can mean to slap someone.
People also use clapped to call someone or something ugly. (e.g. "Rob's looking clapped today.") In this case, the implication is the clapped thing looks as though it has been repeatedly slapped or punched. This use of clapped can be extended to "clapped out," a phrase used to describe especially beat-up looking cars and machinery.
βExample
Ooh, he just got clapped!

π DM Slide
β»οΈDirect message to a crush
A DM slide is a direct message (DM) sent to a crush on a social platform, such as Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram. The DM is a sly way to privately message a person instead of via a user's public profile.
Since DMs are private messages (PM), people often use the DM feature to communicate with others about a sensitive matter. In the case of most DM slides, they are messages where users shoot their shots.
Typically, people who just met are the ones to perform a DM slide. However, people who are friends with someone but are also too nervous to ask their friend out may do a DM slide.
As a heads up, you cannot slide into a user's DMs without being mutuals with them (following each other). Also, if the recipient does not reciprocate your feelings, they may label you as a creeper.
βExample
I can't believe Lawrence's DM slide was successful. He got a date this Saturday
