What's wrong with folks? Is sounds so folksy.

Just as soon as we get rid of people saying "no problem" instead of "you're welcome." My grievance came first.

This.

Also, let's also get rid of "reach out" instead of "contact" or "talk to".

Can I add, "the ask" instead of request or need? As in, "What is the ask?" instead of "What are they requesting?" Yes, I know it is actually proper English, you still sound like a fucking tool.
