This is a rant.
Have you noticed that younger people tend to go up at the end of sentences? This is certainly true in the UK. It is almost as if a question is being asked. This, along with the over-use of "like", is mainly a phenomenon of the under 25 year olds.
Listening to the radio, you can often tell the age of an interviewee by how a sentence ends. Personally, I find this intonation annoying. Then, I am a grumpy old man!

Us Grumpy Old Men must stick together! I think a lot of things about the younger generation(s) are mystifying to us, but then I try to imagine what it must have been like for our parents with us growing up in the sixties with long hair and rock and roll, etc.
Enjoy reading your blog, keep up the good work!
