I hate it too but it used to be a way to get around chat blocks which was originally why people said it. I can’t say ass on TikTok. For places like Reddit I definitely facepalm though. And now every 12 year old boy thinks it’s for a trend they’ve made up.
Unfortunately, it's happening in various subs as well. Some subs won't let you even comment if it contains certain words and I've heard of posts being quietly removed if they have certain words in the title
It actually comes from AAVE, in which elision of the final consonant can happen, so it's just a phonetic spelling of AAVE
Not many people are aware of that, and that's understandable since "censored language" like "unalive" became very present recently on social media, many people assume it came from that instead of AAVE
I can definitely see both. I’ve used “ahh” as a replacement for ass since I was trying to use the word ass online at age 7 and getting blocked lol. But I’ve also grown up around poc that use it in speech too. I think the trend could fs be related to aave, but I think there’s two separate origins in my experience.
I think it's real funny that censorship is coming up when most media is way more uncensored then it's ever been. Many video games show uncensored breasts, some show genitalia too. Growing up in the 90s that was mostly unheard of unless you played games that you knew had it.
I still remember trying to sing along to Eminem on the radio and being like this is completely different then the song I have. That went away for like 15 years but came back for TikTok so weird to me that now music is basically uncensored but say kill on the internet and get demonetized.

I can understand it on YouTube, because sometimes if YouTube decides you’ve said things it doesn’t like, it’ll flag your account and delete any comments that even have minor curse words in them. Still makes me depressed every time I see it, but I get it. Any website that doesn’t pull shit like that though? Yeah, nah, just say it with your fucking chest.
I'd like to see platforms be even harsher on terms like "ahh", which are deliberate attempts to circumvent profanity filters.
Either write the word out properly, or don't use it.
Honestly they deserved that. I hate "ahh" it's so dumb. Just say ass it's not that hard.

What happened to 4$$ ? To 1337 Lingo ? Are people that bad at bypassing censors ?
being forcefed bullshit from a smartphone rather than typing on a keyboard will do that to ya
the censors are often blocking numbers too 😅

Always has.
When I saw it for the first time, I thought it meant "as hell".

Ohhhhh my mistake. Ive noticed we have taken alot og AAVE and turned it into GenZ slang. (Its not really GenZ slang it's still AAVE we just use it.)

goofy ahh mf sounds funnier than goofy ass mf imo
Ahh is best used when it makes something funnier and the rest of the time people really shouldn't be so scared of saying ass
"ahh" sounds ruder
It sounds childish
thats what im sayin
Childish and rude are not even close to being synonyms.
It was definitely not what you were saying.
bro 😂😂🤦♂️
No it doesn't just sound stupid
yt shorts comment are scaring me man
Being unable to spell out ass under a porn meme is on another level.

It's the fact that the og comment was made fun of for NOT using the slang. Bro.
Shit was clearly a joke. Redditors trying not to be autistic challenge… impossible.
"It was clearly a joke☝🤓" It was still dumb ASF either way, chill out bruh
Cry more😂
You're the one who's crying about it, replying to comments and insulting out of nowhere. Get a life
Never insulted anyone, I get it tho English is hard for some.
Also clearly you were too ashamed of your original comment. You were downvoted for a reason bud
Undeserved ahh downvotes
Deserved ass downvotes
Unc
