Some internet buzzwords are popular for a few months and then no one uses them anymore. 俊熙: Yes! It feels like they have a 'shelf life.' Once they expire, using them feels a bit awkward. 刘娜: Why does that happen? 俊熙: They spread too fast. Everyone jumps on the trend, and people get tired of them quickly. 刘娜: Right, and new memes keep appearing, so the old ones get replaced. 俊熙: Also, when words are used too much in ads and marketing, they become boring. 刘娜: As a blogger, how do you use buzzwords naturally? 俊熙: I use them sparingly and put them where they fit best, instead of using them in every sentence. 刘娜: Well said. Language is like the tide: it comes quickly and goes quickly too. 俊熙: 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!
