Everyone on earth: If you are over the age of 12, please stop using the word "stoked." It became a dumb cliche about 15 years ago.

Sometimes it makes me wonder do these celebs even think? Well, poor Bronx is going to endure years of other kids laughing at him.
He feels weird? How you do think his poor son will feel in a couple of years, when he realizes he's been named after a naked kid who used to catch fleas on a lazy bear's fur? Oh, that and the absolutely oxymoronic association of names…
