now becoming is the the bit that I'm really against, this has been used in the UK for at least 20 years, it's not a new thing.
I use a universal atomic clock where man has been on earth for the equivalent of two minutes and fucked it all up.

When growing up in the 00's I had a strong amount of wonderful 'street' lingo creeping in to the way us yoots spoke so atleast you didn't have to contend with sayings such as 'you're chatting bare/bear(?) shit' and 'Am I boat'.

Ya gets me bruv.

Personally, I don't give a fuck how anyone says anything as long as I can understand what they are saying.  I can't stand the word 'gotten' though.

I hate 'can i get' as well. Anyone saying it should be either deported or set on fire.

My modern day hate is preserved for people asking "Would you like a bag today?", or "Will you be having dessert with us today?".

Don't know why but these little, forced familiarities wind me up!

Or, once I have a mouthful of food, a member of the serving staff coming over and asking, 'Is everything alright with your meal?'.

I believe the controversy surrounds the use of "can" in place of "may".

in gastropubs particularly, I can't abide the waiting staff saying 'how are we doing guys? Everything ok for you?' or variations along the same lines. It's always at an inappropriate moment and almost invariably they say it when men and women are present. An Americanism too far.

What winds me up , and we'll hear it more in an Olympic years is how podium has become a verb as in 'to podium'. Hear it in F1 too. Cringeworthy.
