Is it just me or does every 20 something in the country now speak with a faux American accent??

Starting every sentence with “Sooooooo,” using terms like “my bad” “awesome” “super” aghhhh it makes my skin itch!!!!

It’s not “awesome”, it’s not “super” it’s “mighty altogether”.

And that’s my Sunday morning rant!

Same as “I will speak my truth”. Even Shakespeare wouldn’t get his head around that!

Corporate Jargon gets on my nerves too....

'Reach out'
'Touch base with'
'Take it offline'
'Set up for success'
'Deliverables'

Super ( szuper), we use in Hungary, I don’t really like it. More popular is Germany “super”.

On my on language I prefer to say “ it’s very good” , I use it for a good news or maybe when I see nice clothes.
