a bit offended that “quiet quitting” won “most useful” and wasn’t even on the list for “euphemism of the year” (which was “special military operation”)

“touch grass” almost won “digital woty” but lost to “-dle” as in “Wordle”

“informal woty” nominations (did not win):
• the ick: feeling of disgust about one’s date
• menty b: mental breakdown

“blorbo (from my shows)” was nominated for “most creative woty”

some good phrasal template nominees:
• it's the X for me: single out the funny or notable aspect of something
• X hits different: describe X as meaningfully affecting
