i hate to break it to you bammer, but kids have been calling it that for the past 15 or so years. it started by them all asking each other to the dance via posters. they shortened the word to save room.

I don't think this is where it originated, just surprised that it takes that long for trends to get to the PNW.

OTC meds have labels that have gotten so long that they don't fit on the bottle, so they have this pull-away label that opens up to let you read all the info. Ultimately, they have to pick and choose what's inside that fold, and what's visible on the bottle without me having to pick away at that little corner to open up the whole label.

How about putting the fucking dosage on the outside. It's the ONLY information I give a shit about.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Last week I watched someone struggle to find the finish type on product packaging that I designed. And I thought to myself …”hmm next revision I should probably put that in big bold letters.”

I hate when I go to wash my hands at someones kitchen sink and there's no actual hand soap so I have to use a tiny bit of dishwashing liquid instead.
