    I've decided this trend is good actually, it puts a hard stop on meme overuse.
    keeps up the slang churn.

    OK Boomer, the reality TV show where dynamite technicians go to therapy.

    time was, memes used to linger around for years on end

    these days, a meme is lucky to make it a week before becoming cringe

    can you think of anything more wince-inducing than someone popping up with an overused reference from 2009

    The flip side is that as long as you wait long enough, slang wraps around and becomes fun again. Like how 1920s terms are now both obscure and hilarious.

    Not sure that counts since that's an actual old slang expression. Tombstone just made it popular again.

    I use "I'm your huckleberry" or "I'll be your huckleberry" a lot. It's a good phrase.

    also "you feelin' froggy? then leap."

    In NZ, it made headlines when our 25 year old queer Green MP used "OK Boomer" to shut down an old white male opposition MP who tried to heckle her age while she was addressing parliament during the reading of an environmental bill.

    I kinda think it peaked there, and I haven't seen a better usage of it since.

    I think you're confusing it with stalagmites. Cement is when it is in space, and after crashing to earth it's called concrete.

    I always thought cement was the larval stage and concrete was what came out of the cocoon.

    No, you cement a person. When it's a building it's concrete.

    You have to ingest cement. Concrete is when it’s actively injected.

    Concrete and cement are actually the same thing, but concrete is more common in black neighborhoods so it'll get you 5 extra years.
