#History: #President #Bush Vomited On Their #PrimeMinister On Live TV – Now The Japanese Have A Word For It

source: https://allthatsinteresting.com/bushusuru

The Japanese immediately found themselves with a comical new #slang term, #bushusuru which literally means “to do a Bush.” By the end of the month, people were using the term on nights out to warn their friends of piles of vomit in the street as a joke about the U.S. president.

While I scored "mid", it was not a terrible reach of context for those items in question. What I found more interesting is that from the comments section, it was pointed out that much of this "new" lingo isn't new. It simply became mainstream. I'm noticing this trend of each new generation to distinguish themselves from previous generations, whether or not it is perceived as offensive.
