    ‘Genny Lec’ was bad enough but now we’ve got this. Anything serious that impacts people’s lives is now reduced to baby-talk so it sounds fun.

    Can’t afford to feed your kids or heat your home because of the cost-of-living crisis? Blame it on ‘cozzy livs’ and you’re sorted.

    Nowhere to live? Forced to sleep anywhere that will take you in? Call that ‘sofa surfing’ and it sounds California-cool.

    Still if Prezzy P pushes the nuclear button we can all sit back to enjoy the Newky Missys

    I saw "Pezzy P" mentioned on an Instagram post earlier.

    Have a guess what that stands for.

    I think you've misunderstood, Pezzy P apparently means Parrallell Park.

    You're right! I misread it. But by complete chance we've come up with a name I'm sure Putin would love.

    If you get wound up by this type of thing, there's a YouTube video floating about, of someone asking Gen-Z types what all these abbreviations stand for. Personally I don't have a problem with slang. It's always happened. Just like we went lakin art at togger. I have the bigger problem with change of actual language, e.g. of for have, or people asking if they can 'get a coffee' etc etc. No. No you can't get a coffee. You can have a coffee. They will get it for you.

    I would imagine the vast majority of this comes from American YouTube & TikTok influence. Even though they speak English.

    I think it would be a better use of energy to get irate at the Brexit and lockdown enthusiasts who caused the horrendous cost of living crisis rather than at the folk using a whimsical and mildly daft term to describe it.
