A question of names of rankings, expressions and other stuff

I don't know if it’s just me or the rest of the world, but have you noticed lately that we all seem to be speaking in code?
Take this Blog’s rankings system by name, 0-500 is called being in the Kidde Pool, 500-1000 is called Advanced Beginner, and then I, thanks to all of you I just moved up to over 1000, which goes to 3000, and now I have the distinction of being called, a Young Buck? Please keep reading so that I can get out of this ranking with its questionable name. But I truly wonder what could be next?
What’s that, Buck? I should be a Doe, since I am female, but I am still no deer or dear either.
Who comes up with these names or ideas for names anyway?
They are on occasion not spelled properly and did they even think that some of these expressions are actually oxymorons or just mistaken for racist or that they could be wrongly interpreted in other ways?

I’m shaking my head in disbelief that we Americans have earmarks in bills and pork and that we want to stimulus everything!
Earmarks sounds like an ear infection that went really bad and you shook your head during that painful event and goop came out and left its marks all over the place, disgusting!
Pork sounds like what it used to mean like in chops that you eat.
Stimulus is being thrown around way too often in money situations; didn’t that used to mean something sexual?
I am so confused, and I do know that I do still speak English, and I truly thought that I was fluent in it since I was born in the US.
Assumptions are another human failing for us all.
We all know that no one should assume anything, you know the expression assume makes an ass of u and me, ha!
Excuse my crassness.
But what’s up with us all we knew has changed, but I do know that change has always been considered generational.
Now the word, sick, means something good, did you know that? It appears to mean good cool or awesome, how about that? Thanks to the below site:

You do know that with our world growing smaller due to international access to information worldwide we are all better for it, don’t you think?
I appreciate the Internet and all its components for me to learn by whatever means I wish to try.
The feeling of not being left out of the loop is somewhat endearing, don’t you think?
And with total access to anything we need to know is really at ones fingertips, Yeah!
Did any of you know that with just a click of the envelope at the bottom of this Blog or I do suppose anyone’s you can really communicate with me and let me know personally what you think. And I do know that I don’t have to remind you how sensitive I am to criticism so be kind or at least diplomatic.
Thanking you in advance for your voice being heard and acknowledged by me on this Blog, how nice.
On that positive note I will bid you good night to all and to all count those blessings and I will count mine too.
