anyone else annoyed that these buzzwords are all hashtagged and cross linked to other blog articles, rather than defined? #OMN, #4norms, #dotcons - you can’t just make up a bunch of terms and then use them without explaining them to your audience. Wikipedia handles this nearly flawlessly by always offering a definition on the first usage.

Hashtag #mainstreaming? Hashtag #stupidindividualism?? I feel like this is just adding friction to the experience of reading this person’s content - if they feel that have something important to say, why choose this manner of presentation?
