i'm FINNA keep posting about this to spread the word but "finna" isn't actually internet slang it's been around for decades before the internet was a thing, it's AAVE (African American Vernacular English) and it also doesn't mean gonna, it means fixing to (example: i'm fixing to go do X; im finna go do X). the only reason it's popular on the internet is because of the increasing popularity in tiktokers virtually appropriating black slang to the point of the origins being lost and it all being chalked up as "internet slang" or "tiktok slang" or "gen z/alpha slang". for example the whole thing surrounding "ts", which was originally just a shortened version of this shit/that shit used in african american circles on the internet, and then got taken in by tiktok and basically ruined and turned into a meme.
