Nobody has a personality anymore: we are products with labels

I always feel like these "We do this new horrible thing that's taking over" articles are always blown out of proportion- sure, _some_ people talk that way, maybe it's even trending to talk that way for a significant group of people, but it's not true of everyone, all the time. To me, this trend seems largely confined to youth culture and social media.

I also found it ironic that part of the OP's argument was that nobody has personality anymore, they just have problems to solve, and this article seemed to be doing the same thing, but for culture at large; reducing it to a problem to be solved.

Yeah, this is seriously WTF. OP please read a book or go stare at clouds. "We" are not anything.

In other news "there's a whole new way young people are annoying! more at 11"

I find it entertaining and view it more as a writing device

The author obviously adds some exaggeration to get the point across

I don’t think they actually think everyone does this
