1. When a nonsense word not recognized in the dictionary is used so often that it officially becomes a word.
2. When a real word is used incorrectly so often that its erroneous definition is added to the dictionary.
1. The word "Yeet" was dictionarified after people began frequently using it as a word meaning "To throw (something) perceived as useless, especially without care."
2. The word "Literally", which means "Exactly" or "Word for word", was so often misused as a word used to add emphasis to a hyperbole that the latter definition was dictionarified.
A serious issue that is not addressed nearly enough.
When a teenager acts sad or irritable, it's usually attributed to "hormones" or "Attention-seeking." What people don't realize is that teenagers can and do get depressed. In fact, depression in teenagers has been rising alarmingly fast since 2015.
Why should a teen be depressed? Well...there's many reasons.
The teen years are where life starts hitting you like a truck full of bricks; you're in High School now, and it's time to think about what you're going to do with your life. Your parents and teachers may pressure you to do well, and your teachers may not necessarily be that great. It's basically your free trial of working 9 to 5; only it's 8 to 3 (or 4) and you have several "bosses" whom you have to please. And let's not get started on puberty...
With all this going on at once, teenagers will often be stressed and confused, and a snowball effect ensues:
Stress leads to depression, and depression is often misunderstood.
Misunderstandings leads to ignorant, unhelpful adults.
Ignorant, unhelpful adults leads to deeper depression.
Deeper depression leads to self-harm.
And finally, self-harm leads to suicide.
Teenage Depression is real. If your teen seems to be a bit irritable and down, don't dismiss it as a phase.
Because if you don't, you probably won't be having any grandchildren; however, you WILL have the crippling pain of outliving your child due to something that YOU as a parent could have prevented if you simply tried to understand what your teen is going through.

Orange cats are so...distinct that they are essentially their own breed. They are known for sharing one single brain cell among each other. They are very special, very funny, and a very good pet. Plus, if you adopt an orange cat that's obese, you have Garfield.
Get an orange cat. You won't be disappointed.
A phrase jokingly said when something is done so often, it has to be a law.
If someone says "Red Robin," you are legally obligated to say "Yum" immediately afterward.
"You're completely wrong, but what you said is so stupid that I'm not willing to argue. I'll just let you be wrong."
