At the top of the hour, instead of say 12 o’clock or Noon.

Everything is referred to as “the narrative”. It’s the latest phrase.
“My bad” makes me want to scream.

Agree re my bad Gran22boys it hurts my ears.

Yes and the narrative. They're all doing it. Is beginning every sentence with So still a thing? I haven't noticed it much recently. Perhaps I am using it too😯

I love "My bad"! So succinct and quite apt where an outright apology isn't really called for.
