Like a story can literally beat someone over the head with a theme or moral and people somehow come to the opposite conclusion?
It’s like “Tyler Durden is so manly and cool” except every bit of media feels like it’s misinterpreted like that now.

I find it so weird how people don’t just use sayings, like “punched his own ticket” or “caught the bus” or something new, and instead make a coinage that is comically crass in its grasp on language (De-alived would be more appropriate, for example).
I’m really partial to “clocking out early” but I’m totally with you on this.
I haven’t looked into this but my hunch is that since it’s very online terminology that it’s probably an adaptation of unsubscribe, hence the un- prefix.
