Banana Republicanization

The transformation of previously diverse, interesting and cool urban areas into packaged and contrived suburban sameness, one cloned pseudo-trendy chic boutique and café at a time.
Listening to Parker and Logan only poured salt in my wounds at how Banana Republicanization has completely ruined San Francisco.
Parker: Let’s Uber to a café on Valencia Street for an organic-pour-over-single-source-fair-market-turmeric-agave coffee.
Logan: Which fauxhemian café? The one at the corner of 11th? 12th? 13th? 14th? 15th? 16th…?
Parker: That new one, Clones. Besides, I need product for my beard and some vinyl from next door at Posers. You know, the place with the tastefully arranged retro dusty junk from dad’s garage.
Logan: Perfect! Isn’t it great, living in the City? I’m so glad we don’t live in a superficial, contrived place like LA.

Parker: I know, let’s wear our matching custard brown jeans, $300 sneakerboots, and black start-up t-shirts.

Republican Debate

1. An argument that starts somewhat constructive but devolves into a
dramatic display of emotional bravado.

2. An argument where no real practical difference is available at the ideological level,

so the crux of the "debate" lies solely on

how much or how little said agreed ideal needs to be applied as the percieved "disagreement".

3. An argument where there isn't any real constructive debate happening,

but rather a battle of egos, pride, and vanity.

4. An argument where attacking your opponent's character, past, family,

or friends as well as name calling or claims of not caring

take precedence over a practical view of the real issues at hand.

5. A euphemism for ranting about, disliking, or even hating something

whilst simultaneously lacking any constructive criticism.
"Mom and Dad were having a Republican Debate about proper directions on the

road trip so I knew I wasn't going to be able to sleep on the way."

"We tried talking to address our relationship problems but it just ended up
escalating into a Republican Debate every time"

"The irony was that they agreed overall but would get heated about

the particulars quite like a Republican Debate."

"He said he loved the USA more than me. I disagreed and told him I loved the USA more than him.
It was a good ol' Republican Debate."

"I argued the subtle beauty of IPAs while she preferred dark stouts

and this seemingly simple mutual love of beer yet disagreement about flavors

could quickly turn into a heated Republican Debate".

"I tried to be rational about my disapproval of her boyfriend's behavior but
ended up escalating into a Republican Debate over it."
