    Rizz? Can we just send that word back to hell already?

      I mean its just a shortened form of Charisma. Cha sounds weird, and Risma sounds like the set up for a “MUH BAWLZ” Joke

            Sure, but what the hell happens to charismatic in this situation? Does that get shortened too, so now we’ve got people saying “Yo Zendaya is totally rizzmatic!”. Or does everyone just need to re-arrange all sentences that would use charismatic so that only the noun form gets used and we avoid ever having to use it as an adjective?

              I mean, Rizzmatic sounds awesome, I’m down to hear that variation. Language is constantly in flux. It has never stayed static. Multiple variations of 1 word just means you get to pick which one you like best

        We say CHA in my D&D group when talking about the stat, but I’m gonna start saying rizz at the table and see how people react.

          I mean, I cant confirm directly where it originated from. But it’s used in the exact same way charisma is, and means basically the same thing
