Don't be so sure.

I like bacon, but a lot of them there intarweb people take it to ridiculous extremes, like the spirit described in that link. 

StumbleUpon delivers me tons of pages like that.  Bacon vodka, bacon chocolate, bacon bacon....it's crazy.  They're all accompanied by variations on, "LOL bacon is teh ultimate f00d! LMAO."  It seems to be one of the new cultural things (pirates vs. ninjas, Mentos and Diet Coke, etc) that isn't that amusing, but won't go away.  It bugs me.

Don't mind me.  I'm cranky.

Well, now that Obama is our new president, I wanted to keep a collection of things that I've noticed as different or changed in this new era.  So far, I have found the following:

People literally stopped using 'literally' incorrectly at 12:07pm, today.
So far, irrespective of what you might believe, 'Regardless' is ok to use.

What have you noticed?

I've noticed that now we have a, ahem, darker-than-myself president of these United States.  When the hell did that happen?
