There's no need to have a presser about this. So, let's have a conversation.
We all know those words and phrases that gain popularity, become an online sensation, and nearly break the internet with their use. It's as if these little vocal tics have a sort of magical secret sauce that makes us all say them. But when they become overly popular it can become problematic. Sometimes, just sometimes, we need to reevaluate the way we talk, look at these words and phrases, and walk it back a bit.
I don't want to hear you say, "Using these words is giving me life!" That just sounds desperate. You might as well relax, vape, have a drink, do a little manspreading on the couch, and relax.
You're part of the human race as well. You're a stakeholder in how we all talk. Everything you say has worth, a price point, so make it sound valuable. Make your words pop and punch people in the mouth, a sort of verbal physicality that takes people back.
And when all else fails, don't use the thirteen words and phrases in bold.
