Literally the dumbest and most worthless gen z slang. It doesn't save any time whatsoever. Why would you need slang for a very specific thing like lying?
Slang is for identifying the ingroup vs. the outgroup, not for efficiency of communication.
~~Especially when "cap" is already used to mean capacity limitation, like a bandwidth cap.~~
edit: I should have looked it up rather than relying on my (mis)understanding from low-quality past conversations, where I thought this was a term kids tried to invent because it sounded cool.
