:P is quite possibly one of the most clean and innocent emoticons to ever exist. You ideally would add this towards the end of your sentence to convey a sense of playfulness and lightheartedness, especially when the things you've said can come off as a bit inappropriate/insensitive if interpreted the wrong way.

NOTE: this text-based emoticon CANNOT be substituted for the emoji equivalent of a tongue sticking out (especially not the standalone tongue, dear god no).
TWO TEXTING SCENARIOS:

Guy classmate: Ugh I'm so thirsty :P

Girl classmate: Lol same, was too busy studying that I literally forgot to drink some water

Guy classmate: Ugh I'm so thirsty 🥵👅
Girl classmate: Ummm....
Guy classmate: Lol what? I mean I'm thirsty for water
Girl classmate: Ohh, I thought you meant something else lol

Playa. Short and gangster for player.

Started by rapper Gunna and his Shady Baby friends, Gunna refers to any human to come across his presence as "P".
Going further to the use of P, 'Playas Only' was a small movement inspired by the Playboy magazine portraying Gunna as Hugh Heffner with his "Wunna Bunnies" recording the music video for his possible new track "Playas Only", and the main theme for his "Playas Room" birthday party full of high class guests and family.
Future (on the phone): "You pushin P?"

Gunna: You pushin P or what? OR WHAT??

Gunna: P.

Metro: Yea you get it!

Gunna: P!!! Heheh.

Metro: eheh.

Gunna: heh!..... heh.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
