Girl, help, the book authors are trying too hard to be "hip" with the fleeting "teen lingo" and trends again, immediately dating their works before they're even released
#eye twitching seeing certain modern slang in for real published books unironically
#tiktokian slang that is out of date within weeks
#it's a pet peeve of mine but so is modern books mentioning tiktok or stuff at all esp. when not relevant in general
#god it pulls you out of the illusion
#turns it into this very set in stone time frame rather than letting it just be or resonate on its own which is fine sometimes if natural
#you can't avoid some mentions of some things when setting it today but in these cases it's so forced
#hello fellow kidz.jpeg vibe in book form
#books
#this isn't even specific to ya books i've seen it in adult books as well
#booklr
#petty as i am i once stopped reading a first chapter excerpt for mentioning spotify by name on page 1 i'm sorry
#this other book though oh they've used online phrases and boomer insult 3 times and brought up tiktok twice it's on thin f-ing ice
#ignore me i'm petty but don't ignore me because this is a legit problem in the media industry
#don't even get me started on text speak in the dialogue or texting sections yeah
#it's not quite as bad if it's some fake variation of an app or just generic about being online but mentioning by name oh i'm gonna explode
#most times anyway
#i have yet to see it handled well
#this was about slang though so tangent but !! gaah
