    Am I the only one sad because a “serious” publication allows a headline with “meh” instead of apathetic?

      You’re not alone, there are hundreds of Lemmy users who hold equally vocal opinions over details irrelevant to the point.

      It’s in quotes, so I think they made it clear they were quoting something the young people might say.

      I don’t know if they’re right that the 18-35s use that word very often, but I think that’s what they’re going for.

          Do 18 y/o’s actually say that though? I think the journalist might be taking into the trap of trying to be relevant to kids by saying shit we said when we were kids.
