Language and communication are interesting topics that stimulate lots of discussion. Its not some grand mystery

"Corny"

More often than not it just means "I don't like thing"
I feel like that's almost exclusively what that means.
At the very least, it's generally a negative adjective.

And I'm explaining why it's different for other people.
I don't think anyone doesn't understand that.

Though I feel like I've lost track of this conversation.

I feel sort of honored it was my post that spiraled into all this.

I almost feel responsible.

As an oldhead, I will note that I don't have many issues with new slang or new jargon, so I will explain my answers.

"Feels". This term wreaks of insecurity; which automatically makes it uncool. I have no doubt 95% of the people who've said it are men, because women wouldn't feel the need to avoid saying "my feelings" or "I was emotional". The childish tone of the word emphasizes how immature the user is. It's a lot like "preggers", a word teenagers have used because it mitigates the seriousness of a very serious situation.

"Let's Go!". I hear children say this a lot. Sounds normal from them. But every time I hear an adult say it, it's clearly planned, forced, not genuine. Adults shouldn't feel the need to do that. Either you're fake, or still way too impressionable. You're the mom trying to fit in with her daughter's friends.

"Breed". It just sounds dumb. There are a million ways to say "fuck", and you picked the one that makes you sound like you cum in under a minute. Also it's just bad sounding. Like, "breed her with whom, or what"?

I'm almost 40, and I've never minded hearing new slang. New phrases and words fascinate me.

The ones ITT that annoy me are trashy stuff or complaints/justification about behavior. "Only God can judge me", "I'm a free thinker", calling anything you don't like "woke", etc.
...I think I'm done here...
Somone should feed all these words into an AGI and have it write the worst story for CE.

One I see on Reddit sometimes is 'this is the answer' or 'this is the only answer' in response to a completely subjective question which has no definitive answer.

This is the only answer.

Edit: Why all the downvotes?
I find it annoying when someone starts a sentence/post/comment with I mean.
Obviously youre saying what you mean, its like a really stupid tautology and it bothers me more than it should.

People only do that to make sure whoever they're responding to doesn't think they're being confrontational. Since so many people get real defensive on the internet anyway, and it's hard to tell someone's tone through text a lot of the time.

Though, it does sound sort of patronizing on the other hand.

Because it is interesting that it is that particular set of phrases that you take issue with.

Did either of you notice that, or do you only comment when you want to be contentious?

Two of those just came from the Ann Coulter topic, and it occurred to me that both mask off and quiet part out loud are just memes at this point instead of making an original comment about the words said. The users who used those phrases arent wrong, I just feel theyre overused around here.

Same goes for leopard analogies. Ive seen them used so much by so many people regardless of their politics, its just tiring. Not sure why or when everyone became obsessed with the leopard analogies, but theyre worn out.

I know the origins of freeze peach, at least around here, was during the Twitter buyout. I get it. But as its an outdated reference at this point, now it just sounds like a mockery of free speech, which Im quite sure everyone wants (at least for themselves or their beliefs). Free speech is important, and fundamental, and oppressed voices shouldnt be silenced. So while I understand the origin, its not a phrase I like being used.

Ill also point out that numerous people complained about woke with no one batting an eyelash or posting criticism (due to obvious bias, even if I also avoid it unless in quotes), and there was a whole day long argument of someones opinion on the word partner that was pointless. So Ive explained myself (even if one of you is tagged as Likely alt), and unless you have constructive dialogue in response, Id ask that we go about our days at this point.

"let them cook" / "they are cooking"
"give them their flowers"
", no?" at the end of a sentence
"a lot to unpack" / "let's unpack this"
