(...) My university would always say a major was "currently impacted" instead of "full." Geez. (...) There seems this mass delusion that the word "flaunt" is the word "flout".

(...) Because every generation wants to communicate in it's own terms. It always has been, and it always will. Besides, "My bad" is so much cooler than any of the others.
