cbiscuit, a few points:
1. "Acknowledging a half-wit lifestyle only lowers the bar for our society." Should we pretend it doesn't exist? Should we have an authority who decides what is "acceptable" English, and what isn't, and refuse to document "unacceptable" English?
2. "We are becoming a nation of idiots." Which nation is that? The US, where I believe "bling bling" was coined, or England, where I believe the OED is published?
And if this is what proves to you that the world is going to hell in a handbasket, boy do you have strange priorities! People are killing each other all over the world (as usual), but that's OK, as long as they don't use stupid words like "bling bling", huh?
