"Read that again, let it sink in, and louder for the people at the back"

Echoing Goobster's thoughts - it feels like this was bound to happen to you. I am increasingly confused by the style of other generations. I still feel like being a millenial means I'm young, but I'm not. Not anymore :(

Quippy and clunky sounds about right. Meant to be quick and clever, but also somehow 'evocative' yet easy to replicate. However I associate it with those under 35. Those approaching 50 I'm yet to encounter ever talking or writing like that.
