When did washed up become simply washed? I don’t remember getting the memo and this seems like fixing something that wasn’t broken. There’s tons of others. My only sure fire sign I’m getting old so far is the language people use annoys me more each year. This isn’t even getting into how the whole online left acts like 13 year olds with new lingo every few months for things we already have words for. Society should never change or evolve. It’s annoying. |

Most of what annoys people about language comes from the black women/gay men/straight women chain. I've BEEN saying this. |

I think Twitter wine mom speak absolutely qualifies. But that's fine. What else is bothering you? |

I guess I never realized the genesis of it but it’s universal now, much more so than dumb shit like gaslighting and dragged. Not much else. Me left knee is aching again from 2011 surgery but otherwise I’m solid. |

What's with the patriot/patrioting crap around here? Is it something to help guys with encroaching middle/old age try to feel relevant for another 2-3 years? |

Isn't there a pretty long thread about this called "Expressions that need to die" or something like that? |

But at the same time that they said they were going to work on it, they also said that there's actually nothing wrong with it and if you don't like it, maybe you're the one who has a problem, which seems like a quintessential NPR approach, you do have to admit. |

I’ve gotten a lot better getting So... out of my usage. I think that’s a Gen X’er thing that can be blamed on Boyd. I don’t see a lot of old or young people using it as much. Maybe young people but they’re all over the map. |

This is limited to Reddit, but it annoys the absolute bejesus out of me when people tell a story and keep an already anonymous post more anonymous by say shit like, "my coworker, let's call her Lauren"... Motherfucker, no one knows who you are, I don't need this performative bullshit. |
