In everyday conversations. "I just had to get the gingerbread cookie, it's going viral!" "Oooo, we just found a new hack for parking downtown." Taking EVERY bit of energy to not chastise her about the low intelligence of those words when used in that manner. "No, if was going viral we'd avoid it like the plague cause we wouldn't want to sick." "No, there were no computer programs involved which we hacked in to. All we did was park at 3:30 instead of 4:00 when most all other come down here." "Why bless your heart - you're learning new words from TikToc again, aren't you?" Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. "If dogs don't go to Heaven, I want to go where they go" Will Rogers The definition of the words we used, carry a meaning of their own... | ||

I prefer the Kings Engish. Using slang conveys a certain stupidity. It is very irritating to my ears. | |||

If she starts using, "Right?" or "I know...right?", and putting "I mean..." in front of every sentence, hire a good divorce attorney. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

Thankfully, there's roughly ZERO chance that will ever happen with Mrs. PHPaul. She's still trying to figure out 50's slang... Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

All she needs is a good swiving, and she'll forget all about it. Let's be clear: "Hack" "Viral"  "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . . That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation." Alfred Hornik, Sunday, December 2, 1945 to his family, on his continuing duty to others for surviving WW II. | |||

Tik Thot, where the human brain goes to die. I would remind anyone that the communist government of China owns that fucking app. Do not use it. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

My wife always argues, “They say…”. I immediately ask, “who is they, Facebook or tik tok?” It’s ridiculous that folks get knowledge from either. However, the argument that slang or non-King’s English is ignorant is just as silly. 10 years to retirement! Just waiting! | |||

I’m getting really tired of “what the sigma” from my kids. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.

It's rather (dis)heartening that kiddies today get so much of their wisdom, intellect and vocabulary from SpongeBob SquarePants. And yes actually, I had to Google it up to see what it means. After all, Me Boomer, you know... -MG | |||

If you are bold enough to gripe at your wife over English usage that irritates you, then more power to you. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

As long as my wife never says 'my bad' to me I'm good. But then again, when has she ever apologized to me?  | |||
