  Oh you crazy old fart, glad you finally figured this out. Probably the only way I figured it out is because I live in a town with a large college. "Bae" is term you would usually use for your boyfriend, girlfriend, favorite pet, etc.
  
  I just returned from Vegas over the weekend and by the 2nd day I was fist bumping everyone I came into contact (mostly strippers and hot waitresses/bartenders who would first bump me first). Seemed fine at the time but once I returned home I decided if I ever do that at home I will have to cut my hand off.

  I pick up new words/phrases from the DS all the time. She'll be playing some rap crap, and I'll ask about some line or phrase in the song, and she fills the old guy in on what it means.
  
  Now I've gotta go. I'm cookin pie in the kitchen with my baby.

  It's funny how as people get older, the slang and music of the younger generation is stupid and makes no sense. But it's like that for every generation. This generation will think the next generations music and slang isn't as good as when they were younger. It's a perpetual cycle.
  
  Baby boomers don't get generation x, gen x don't get millennials, millennials won't get the next generation ...

  It's also apparently Danish or some such for "shit."
  
  Allegedly.

  I feel like the acronym is reverse-engineered, although maybe I'm wrong.

  FWIW, here's what Time magazine had to say about "bae" when "Come Get It Bae" came out in 2014:

  I think both the acronym for "Before Anyone Else" and the Danish word for shit are implausible explanations and continue to believe that it started as a lazy way to say "babe".

  Agreed. A lot of common typos end up entering the lexicon.

  is that what "bae" means? I'm 24 and I always assumed it was short speak for "babe" or "baby".Didn't know it was an acronym

  Esta: It's almost certainly *not* an acronym. Consider:
  cool --> coo
  crazy --> cray [cray]
  babe --> bae

  One of the definitions for “Bae” in UrbanDictionary.com is “Before Anyone Else”

  Papi: Surely you're aware that UrbanDictionary.com is mostly lleno de mierda. A lazy pronunciation of "babe" is much more plausible than an acronym as the origin of the ridiculous "bae".

  Eradicating words and dumbing down the language is a basic tenet of 1984.
