the absolute fucking state of journalism…
I would read news with bukkake as a verb in the title.
Next big trend in headline journalism.
Gotta speak the language of the people I guess
Are Kids saying this? I haven't heard it. It sounds like toddler speak.
Yeah. And yeah it does.
However when I was young in the late 80s adults were always complaining about the way we spoke, so I guess I'll refrain from doing the same thing to young people now
My partner recently started working at a high school, and I can confirm that I started hearing that shortly thereafter
I feel like I saw "big mad" a few times in 2016, but never since...

I, briefly, participated in a journalism camp for a large state newspaper where I live and the guiding advice was to, "write targeting a 6th grade education".
That was 15 years ago, I can only imagine it's lower now.
Instant no-read
