THOT Speak

THOT Speak: The vernacular of the THOT (“That Ho Over There”) sub-community that proliferates across the “reality show” landscape and on TikTok.

It is the way THOTs communicate to exhibit their thotness. Like its predecessors, “Valley Girl” and “Vocal Fry”, it has its own: affectation, cadence, community, drawl, global appeal, lingo, mass acceptance into mainstream speech (albeit often grudging acceptance), pattern, pitch, points of inflection, pop culture influence, rate of dispersion, regional or social saturation of social media, speed, similarity, spread, word drop-off, vibrato, vocality, and volume. In other words, THOT Speak is the way that THOTs talk—often when they are thirsty for the attention they constantly seek. It is shared across all ages, classes, genders, identities, orientations, and personal attributes.
Guy: “Shawty/Shorty, if I get that face, feet, hair and nails beat, wrap that waist in couture, light that wrist in bling, and cop you a whip, can I tap that ass?”

Girl: “Excuse you…I don’t understand THOT Speak!”

Bum Speak

The "language" that one hears when passing by a homeless member of society. Acquired over time, bum speak leads one to gradually speak to oneself, resulting in a language that cannot be easily understood by the general public. Sometimes accompanied by homeless banter, or your average mumble jumble, bum speak can not always be ignored since it is often coupled with random bursts of excessive vocal volumes.

Note: Bum speak can most easily be compared to the voices most famously characterized by the adults in the popular comic of Peanuts and Charlie Brown, such as the classroom teacher.
Chris: "You hear that guy back there? I couldn't understand one word he was saying as he was sitting on that bench!"
Jeff: "That, my friend, is what you call bum speak. No one understands!"
