A few years ago Doctor Phil McGraw had a fame booster of an interview with who most of us refer to as the “Catch Me Outside” girl. It might be safe to say everyone had a hard time understanding this teen.
Recently, McGraw has taken to Twitter to ask his followers to help him understand a few words and phrases he’s seen in the comments on his videos.
He is the person we all see anytime we talk to parents or grandparents/grandkids on social media or FaceTime.

According to Dictionary.com:
VSCO girl is a term, generally used as an insult, for a young, usually white woman who posts trendy pictures of herself edited on the app VSCO.
Stereotypes of the VSCO girl include wearing scrunchies and Birkenstock sandals, drinking out of Hydro Flask reusable water canisters, saying sksksk and I oop, and generally seeking attention online.
Sksksk is an interjection used to convey surprise, happiness, and other intense emotions. It’s stereotyped as an overused expression of VSCO girls on social media.
I oop is a viral phrase from a video by drag queen Jasmine Masters. It has since become stereotyped as a catchphrase of VSCO girls. And I oop or I oop can be playfully used to express shock, surprise, or embarrassment.
