Obviously this sort of thing is intentional, and after a million focus groups, newscasts, and advertising statistics they found this was the best way for them to talk to keep people listening and in a buying mood.

It would be interesting to see how this bizarre affectation was developed and why it has spread so widely.

It reminds me of the video of the teen in Australia who trashed his parent's house with a party and gets interviewed by a ditzy news anchor.

It is funny to listen to her because you can see her fighting with herself to keep up the fake newspeak. Her diction starts out in bogus mode, and when the teen doesn't follow her script, she kind of loses it, regains it, and loses it again.

The bone of contention being his glasses. She can't get over his glasses, and as a result we get to see the war in her soul between the professional woman and the private woman.

There's a great moment at 2:36 where she drops the act, kind of squirms in her seat, and becomes a plain old woman challenging a man.

She doesn't really recover after that.

Haha, that "why not?" is great, she was almost crying/begging. Her unconscious female programming couldn't compute what was happening, "but every male always does what I tell him to do, why is this kid disobeying my command? Oh, there's something alluring about him but I can't put my finger on it..."

Am I the only one who thinks those apple earbud look fucking stupid?

And they're UBIQUITOUS. Idiots keep buying these in spite of comparable quality Bluetooth buds costing a third of the price.

The paper cups I use are waxed... but I have no doubt some are made with a plastic liner because it saves the manufacturer a billionth of a cent per pallet. Praise mammon!

Lined with cancer-causing estrogen-mimicking BPAs, so it's not just the soy latte inside the cup that's doing the damage...

I hate that our societies have become so debased that the word 'porn' is now used as an alternative for 'beautiful' or 'enjoyable' - Food Porn, Earth Porn, etc.

I hate that no matter how smart a woman is, she seems to be completely and utterly in-fucking-capable of not clicking on secondary links and navigating to unsafe websites the microsecond something shiny is dangled in front of her.

What is this weird site you're downloading movies from and why aren't you still yanking them from Youtube?

"But the movies work..."

Bitch, of course they fucking work, along with all the shit you're dragging with them!"

I'm not sure if there is a name for it, but the way news anchors speak. I call it capital letter vernacular. Because They Always Seem To Be Talking Like Every First Letter In A Word Is Capitalized And Holy Shit Is It Annoying. Or they'll be talking like normal until a key phrase comes up and suddenly it gets this dramatic enunciation and, again, it's like all the words start capitalized.

Here let me see if I can put on my best NPC programming bot impression:

"Tonight in lgbtbbq666 news a Local Mom is Speaking Out about the Culture Of Misogyny at the Pro Rape Fraternity her White Male son goes to, and how she is Advocating For Change and says we have a Long Way To Go. Local feminist experts say Something Needs To Change."

Something like that. Can't stand that shit, it's practically unlistenable . And that's aside from the whole blatant progressive bias and incredible twisting of reality and "why you should think this way" pieces.

You watch the news?

It has been almost 20 years since I had 'cable'.

I can't watch broadcast TV anymore. Friends don't understand why I refuse to sit in front of a propaganda box. I think they enjoy being treated like retarded children, incapable of understanding anything without having their opinion handed to them. Toss in commercials and it is a form of torture.

TV makes people stupid. I HATE TV.

I hate seeing those "deep quotes" that women post on their stories on Instagram and Snapchat. The ones that I know personally that post these, do not follow their own advice and quotes they post EVER.

I really hate the nu-male soy smile, it makes me want to punch something after seeing something like the picture. The dude with the Nintendo Switch looks like he creamed himself over a fucking video game system. All of the men look like they're all saying either "Take my wife" or "I love cock".

None of them can pull off a genuine "zany grin" they all have these sad unsmiling eyes with the gaping mouth. Pathetic.

Not so much hate as find him offensive on almost every level.

Jeremy E Sherman Ph.D.
https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/experts/jeremy-e-sherman-phd-mpp

He covers the spectrum of SJW BS, arrogance, ignorance, sanctimony...... while bizarrely and hypocritically engaging in every behavior he documents in his posts. Quite an achievement to stand out from the rest of PsychologyToday 'experts' as much as he does.

Had several experiences leaving replies to his post where he clearly did not understand what I said, assumed he did and went ballistic over that not said. Insults and unfounded accusations from him of the most unhinged sort followed. Most recently under 'There's Room for Racists in this Country'.

Then he started deleting his embarrassing and rude posts. No recognition he was wrong or rude, just memory holed while crowing about his power to do so, then blocking me from posting. Not only a jerk and idiot but apparently a shameless coward too.

Very disturbing to see so many whackjobs with state certification as 'healers' when most of them seem to be in desperate need of mental health services (and basic logic) themselves. Kind of explains the sorry state of mental health in the general population today.

Edit:
Funny how the next thing I looked at ties in.
