Jesus Christ I've never cared about anything less than whatever is going on there. In fact, it's horseshoe theory in action. It is so far from anything I care about I am actually annoyed it has reached my eyes, and I therefore do care about it. I didn't think that was possible.

Yes, the more notable thing is that, for some reason, the British decided the practice should end.

My girlfriend's ex is e-stalking her, if that's a thing. I said she should send him a picture of my cock if he contacts her again. I believe that may have actually happened a couple of days ago. Let's see if it works.

Yes, that's a reasonable take.

I don't understand how you've reached that conclusion.

What I was saying is that I have more of an issue with the knee-jerk "languages evolve" response than I have with any particular instance of a language actually evolving.

The reason for this is that it has become another thought-terminating cliché which greatly oversimplifies things but is nevertheless trotted out as if it is the be-all and end-all of linguistics. It isn't. Particularly with politicised language.
