If we are having this meta-discussion, you can usually guess a person's age by which letter they are elongating. Millenial generation uses the vowel (as above) but gen alpha elongates the syllable - "longggg". Doesn't add anything to the convo just an interesting tidbit.
The only thing worse than complaining about this is being the guy complaining about the guy complaining about this. So congratulations on being second most annoying.
