Welp, I think I need to go to my safe space to get over my waste of time reading all these moronic new words that I’d never use except sarcastically.

I'll not be using any of these new 'words'. They won't be allowed into my vocabulary reality.

Safe place ?? When I was young , and that was eons ago my safe place was a place we called home . A place where your mom and dad and your siblings also lived . A place filled with love and adventure and home cooked meals and a fun weekend was a cookout with some of your friends and family members . That was my safe place and i’ll tell you I miss the hell out of that safe place !!

More like ignorance, lack of education or knowledge of the English language, street language or to many people in California trying to write .We should pay more attention to what teachers re doing in our schools l

Well, I mean Welp, I do not like any of these words; they sound like words that Millennials would use. I am almost 70 yrs. old, so I will stick with my own words, thank you very much. “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Welp, I'm going to have to just go now and do some copious virtue signaling, and then plan some "Esprit de l'Escaliers" for future usage.

Safe space and virtue signalling have been around for quite sometime. Whelp refers to a dog 🐕 giving birth.

What an utter waste of time. New words are invented to cover new things happening, not just to please somebody’s ego.

We may not like these new words or phrases but it is worth noting that an estimated 800 to 1,000 new words are added to English language dictionaries every year, so no point being a luddite as we inevitably end up using many of them. Think Blockchain and Cryptocurrency as recent examples.

Colorism...really didn't like that one. I feel the world is more interesting with all the colors of people, nature, everything. A person is just a person, I love them all. Guess I really don't see color, just new opportunities to learn more about different ideas, ways of doing things, exploring their creativity, learning about them. I just meeting new people and their color has nothing to do with anything. We are all just PEOPLE, good, bad, indifferent, funny, wise, creative, artistic, so many talents throughout this great big world. Love meeting people, learning about them, sharing stories, ideas, and color is never entered into the mix of it.
