Why on earth do people post on modern forums and Facebook to say they’ve removed something from their car and call it “delete”. It’s blinking removed or taken off.

I think I’m growing old

There is so much of it, I am feeling very old some days when I look on twitter...

Things like:-
"ima", instead of "I am going to"
Woke... what the hell is that...
and the one I keep seeing lately is Niger... how come it is ok for black people to refer to each other as Niger, but if I did it, I would be up in court in zero seconds flat..
