A few years ago, when I was visiting my brother and his family, we were walking and talking as we tend to do (we are a family of mulit-taskers).
All of a sudden, out of nowhere, my brother breaks out the cool slang and fits it neatly into our conversation: Fo’ shizzle, my nizzle!
I stopped walking and stared at him, completely confused, and said, “Did you just say you wanted to play Parcheezi with Sneezy?”
At which point he walked away from me and disowned me.
True story.
Update: Yes. I know what he said.
