    I’m sorry you’re getting downvoted. I get you.

    There’s a reason they make dictionaries, so we can have a common standard of language and understand what people are saying when they speak or write.

    Yes, it took thousands of years to get where we are, and of course language is going to continue to evolve, but there’s no good reason to literally change existing and well defined words.

    It isn’t ironic, it’s how language happened. Using hip words and phrases is pretty cool, no cap.
