This is what people are saying
- So that makes me a weirdo? WTH?
- They’ve always said that
- This isn’t a thing.
- lol what
- This is and has been normal since before you were born. Welcome in.
- This is pretty brilliant trolling. Saw this on reddit a few weeks ago and now one of your flyers is in my restaurant.
Pretty funny schtick
- I’m so sorry it’s like 97% and ppl called u a weirdo unintentionally. I would say “no, not at all you smart intelligent and observant person”
- I am from Nebraska and this has always been a thing? I wonder if Midwestern slag is becoming the “standard” dialectic among Americans. I dont know though.
- Yeah, what up
- I don’t shop a lot, but maybe it’s a covid related shift

- David Sedaris talks about this
- And “entitled” is completely misused. And “looking forward”. Are you on the bow of a ship, hand blocking the sun, looking forward? No. You are just signing off on an email about something we are meeting up for next week
- Have you thought about reaching out to the “A Way with Words” podcast? They are a podcast that deals with language and maybe they’ll have some answers for you.
- Is this a certain region, place?

- Yes! And I don't like it.
- I hate "welcome in" so much.
