Liu Na and Junxi discuss how buzzwords spread quickly, but also quickly become overused and get replaced by new memes.
Junxi, have you noticed? Some internet buzzwords are popular for a few months and then no one uses them anymore.
Yes! It feels like they have a 'shelf life.' Once they expire, using them feels a bit awkward.
Why does that happen?
They spread too fast. Everyone jumps on the trend, and people get tired of them quickly.
Right, and new memes keep appearing, so the old ones get replaced.
Also, when words are used too much in ads and marketing, they become boring.
As a blogger, how do you use buzzwords naturally?
I use them sparingly and put them where they fit best, instead of using them in every sentence.
Well said. Language is like the tide: it comes quickly and goes quickly too.
Then let me sum it up: no matter how popular a meme is, don't force it. Using it just right is what makes it classy!
