I just say it for the effect (kinda trying to intentionally sound...like something...), I don't usually bother with a majority of shortenings (beyond contractions).
I think "cray" shouldn't be used because cute forms of ableism is probably worse than regular ableism, and adorbz doesn't even make sense to me, but totes gets me giggles. It's a bastardization of a word already being misused, which sort of loops around to "right" for me.
Holy fucking shit you kids. It's two more letters. "Totally" versus "totes."
Actually it's two more syllables, old man.
Using syllables and not mora to determine effective word length.
Talk to the dude who used the number of letters to determine effective word length.
Number of letters = number of keystrokes = amount of effort to use a word correctly in a typed format.
tl;dr: You kids are totes lazy.
Also, WuB, if you'd typed "Chick totes schway, that shit be cray," you'd have written a quarter-stanza of kviohattar (kvithuttar), modified to include end-rhyming (runhent).

I've only heard "schway" used while watching Batman Beyond, where it was supposed to be a futuristic version of "cool" or "awesome." Are people actually using it in real life now?

Maybe people thought that we live in future enough now.

This is the only place I've ever heard it. I assumed it was derived from chouette.

Personally, I think totes and cray are dumb, but I do like saying adorbz.
(Am I doing it right? Totes? I'm too old for this slang.)
What? You always knew how this was, I've always been a more-than-one-activist man.
ISHYGDDT.

You're a viking, brah.
It's still silly word.
(I always kind of liked it)
