"who's your daddy" and the overuse of "community"
A couple of interesting articles of late related to language:
- Washington Post: “Conception of a Question: Who’s Your Daddy?” (01/04/05)
On the origins and usage of the phrase “Who’s Your Daddy?”
- Washington Post: “Instant Community: No Assembly Required” (12/19/04)
On the overuse of the word “community” to describe groups of people with similar interests, perhaps implying more cohesion than actually exists.
