Just on HN alone I think I've seen roughly 3948538902748750897520938 mentions of emdashes when others were complaining about slop in the past 2 months. It might as well be the unofficial slop logo. Folks are treating it like a dead giveaway.

I feel like a school friend of mine has been taken from me.

The real dead giveaway is that the writing is bad.
