Hot take: 'demure' is the new 'quirky' and I'm already tired of it

My sister used 'demure' 5 times in one text about her new haircut last night and I swear no one under 30 actually knows what it means. Anyone else noticing this word popping up everywhere all of a sudden?

Honestly that "whimsical" comparison changed my mind, I was defending it til now.

My mom used it three times describing her new throw pillows on Facebook and I wanted to scream. It’s already the new "whimsical" and I’m over it.

Told my mom "quirky" is off limits now. She actually listened.
