If it's been used for decades, it's probably stupid and backward.
LOL. God bless those who know better. There's a lot of that going around, especially among the young.
I'm finally catching up with some of the psychological literature. There's a real problem with males ages 15-32/33 right now. They appear to be behaviorally limited, frightened to death, and socially/sexually retarded. It's a kind of serious behavioral retardation that synchs up with widespread internet use. I suspect it has to do with reliance on porn and conducting large chunks of social interaction anonymously. Plus the middle class has been thinned and that income bell curve flattened, so you have a lot of poor males who can't get laid regularly. Putting off marriage until their 30's. Just an entirely different animal, propped up by the illusion that mastering some transient tech gives them knowledge/skills/depth of insight that eludes older people.
But they evade evaluation of any kind (intellectual/financial/sexual), which is why anonymity is so popular.
My late wife, with doctorates in anthropology and demography, would have loved this stuff. She foresaw the rise of rap and hip hop when they were a
glean in the LA music industry's eyes.
Deep thoughts, as they say on SNL. LOL.
