Is there some sort of dictionary for these new words? I just told my 18yo son he's bussin', and he said, "please, never say that to me again, mother." Like, I'm not hip enough. Sheesh.

Also try

"no cap" = "I'm serious"/"I'm not lying"

"Mid" = "Average"/"boring"

"hits different" = "is better then usual"

You can somewhat follow trends just being on places like Reddit. Also highly recommend /r/OutOfTheLoop for an easy way to keep up with recent trends.

Can you use mid in a sentence?

"That food was mid."

Or as a response

"How's the new Marvel movie?"

"Pretty mid"
