I recently came across https://tropes.fyi/directory which has a pretty solid set of common patterns, and I like it a lot. The pattern that always really bothers me is the one named "short punchy fragments", for example from the site “He published this. Openly. In a book. As a priest.”

It kills me every time. I automatically lose any interest in the substance and often just throw away the whole conversation!

You're absolutely wrong.

But someone can genuinely like using the word!

And “honestly” in the way it is used in this piece

It genuinely is.
