I long for the new era when English, language and expression will again be a thing of beauty, refinement and grace

Not the vulgar guttural styling that have been influenced by screw top 40's
Why is verbal expression taking the form of the lowest common dominator
When did a lack of enunciation become something to emulate
When verbiage is lost and the vernacular of the peasantry becomes the standard you have lost a most meaningful and powerful form of expression and communication
Can you picture Mozart/Einstein/Hemingway/Jefferson saying Shizzle de dizzle of my fizzle - these type of expressions lack refinement and by no means engage the sense to further heights

I was in a store the other day, there were these kids, maybe
13-16 y/o, they were cracking up, laughing, talking.
Thats a pretty normal thing for kids to do but these kids
were SAYING LOL.
People were looking at these kids as if they were aliens but
the boys just kept on repeating LOL LOL LOL while laughing
hysterically.
I just walked on shaking my head.
