    Things I remember people complaining about at various times (I don’t really recall gradeschool having any)

    • overuse (or use at all) of dude
    • doy
    • [no] duh
    • dweeb
    • overuse of awesome
    • various “surfer” slang (we all saw the TMNT movie)
    • at some point, maybe around high school, “my bad” became a thing. I still don’t really like the phrase much.

    I’m sure there are more locked somewhere in the recesses of my brain, but those are the ones that jump to mind. The internet was only really becoming a thing when I was in highschool and I lived in a very rural area for most of it so things spread much more slowly.
