Hate to break it to you but, sample size of 9, my entire friend group talks like this. We're all in our 30s.
Language changes. The construction "what's up" and its extension "what's up with ..." didn't become widely accepted until Bugs Bunny brought it into the mainstream, and yet you use it as naturally as anything else at the beginning of your message.
I don't know that it's particularly constructive to dish on this post purely on that account.

Moreover, generational complaints about use of language and communication style are solidly off topic and do not rise above the level of cliche.

How else are you supposed to tell people that their behavior indicates that their removal is a feature and not a bug? > Moreover, generational complaints about use of language and communication style are solidly off topic and do not rise above the level of cliche. There are no generational complaints. The problem is gossip culture, as indicated by the language.
