    I think some major price gouging is afoot.

    A Florida priest received more than $500,000 in fines for feeding the homeless; a man in Toronto stole 91 tubs of ghee; hundreds of pounds of unrequested French-onion dip arrived at restaurants across Philadelphia; and a woman in Iowa was charged with an aggravated misdemeanor, among other charges, after delivering a family-size pan of lasagna laced with drugs to a pregnant woman in an attempt to induce a miscarriage.

    Gen Z’s 10 Most Hated Cringe Words
    Here’s Preply’s top 10 list of the most cringe expressions in America, according to Gen Z.

    6-7
    Skibidi
    Sorry, Not Sorry
    Pookie
    Wifey
    Rizz
    Nom Nom Nom
    Bae
    My Bad
    YOLO
    What’s funny is that people hate these words and still use them. Preply found that 42 percent of Americans admit they use words they personally consider cringeworthy, but only ironically. Irony has become the social life raft for people who want to participate in a trend without fully surrendering their dignity.

    What the hell is a pookie?

    I’ve heard many of these words from my teen, 8year old and my bae(future wifey) and tease them appropriately with a few of these so i can understand it.
