This is when a character starts speaking like a [[Jive Turkey]] in an attempt to sound cool or relevant, and comes across as neither to other characters, who react with disdain (often [[Totally Radical]] disdain).

* Aang from ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' was doing this while under disguise in the Fire Nation. He kept calling everybody "hotman" and saying "flameo", to the confusion of everyone around him. Apparently the terms had become outdated during his 100-year nap in the iceberg.
* ''[[Invader Zim]]'' does this with Poop Dawg, the Gangsta Clown who's supposed to encourage kids to sell candy. He asks the children is they want to 'go madness with da moneyzz?!' and pronounces the word 'prizes' like "pri-zai-zez" while dropping the word ''yo'' every other word. Both the children near him in person and those watching look totally lost after hearing him speak.
** Not even the guy in the suit [[Who Writes This Crap?|can take himself seriously]].
* ''[[X Men Evolution]]'': Forge can't help it that his slang's outdated, he's been in stasis since the 1970s. Nightcrawler comments on it anyway.
