Great moments in lexographical orthodoxy:
The '90s: "Deez nuts," is introduced to common slang. "D. Snutts" becomes one of my pseudonyms.
The '00s: "I know, right!", an expression of agreement, invades the country from rap salons.
Today: "Really?! Reeeeeally?!" becomes the latest noxious trend in urban drawl. Formerly known as "Seeriously?! Seeriously?! Are you m* f'n seerious?!" with a high inflection that the speaker uses, in order to sound knowledgable and authoritative, and to offend the senses.
If you weren't aware of any of these, they'll hit you like nails on a chalkboard when you hear them now!
Bonus annoying trend:
What is with people putting memorials with names, slogans, tombstones and birth/death dates on their rear windshields? "R.I.P. such and such." Weren't you depressed enough before? If you want to show us that you're grieving, I truly sympathize, but why is the automobile suddenly the place to put that stuff? I don't get it, seems conspicuously gaudy to me.
