“A True Hero” – This Father Has Said ‘Skibidi’ Over 47,000 Times To His Son So That It Loses All Cool Points As A Phrase
‘SKIBIDI’, A WORD that has plagued the ears of parents, teachers and online gamers above the age of 16, has officially been admitted to the Cambridge English Dictionary alongside other notable inclusions such as ‘tradwife’ and ‘broligarchy’.
Despite its acceptance into mainstream everyday English usage, one brave Irish father took up a crusade earlier this year to ruin the word for his son and has received international praise for his efforts.
“The little prick was saying it at least 15 times an hours, it had no discernible meaning, it seemed like the point of saying it was that it had no meaning. But this is my house, I pay the mortgage so I wasn’t taking it,” explained Waterford father Liam Gaffney, dripping from head to toe with world class cringe inducing charisma.
“So I thought if he thinks this word is worth saying, he’ll hate if it becomes his 42-year-old father’s favourite fucking phrase. First forgetting my keys was skibidi, then pizza for dinner was skibidi, my farts were skibidi, I couldn’t stop. He was crying by the end of the first week, begging me to stop but I’d tasted this awful immense power to make my son and his friends cringe, it was like a drug,” added Gaffney, who reckons his son will have lasting PTSD when he hears the word uttered decades from now.
Gaffney however, admitted the adrenaline rush that overtook him, didn’t always bring the best out in him.
“We were on a family holiday with the kids in a small rickety caravan, and when I made love to my wife in our room I made sure to say skibidi with every thrust before letting out a minute long skibidi when I finished. That irritating, awful fucking slang isn’t so cool now son, is it?” concluded Gaffney before breaking and asking what sort of monster had he become.
Elsewhere, Hiberno-English activists have raged against the lack of inclusion in the dictionary once again for a number of Irish phrases including ‘cat melojin’ among others.
