ATTN: Copyeditors and Grammar Fiends

all lowercase is always correct

thats right

Shouldn't that obviously be "Thank You for Shopping with Us!"?

Personally speaking, I'd lose the exclamation point as making them sound over-excitable and perhaps mentally unbalanced.

Should really be: “Thank You for Shopping with ‘us!’”

Thank You for Shopping with BIG HOOS aka the streendriver

Songs where it’s fun to say HOOS in place of the actual plastic bag.

Perhaps I will start posting in HOOS case.

DO U see?!

LET ME TRY this on for size.

TS: ALL OF A SUDDEN VS. all of the sudden

Can I use "occasioned" like this?

the publication of X occasioned the first use of some new word

Note that the new word doesn't appear in X itself but appears in a review of X.

It's grammatical enough, and "occasioned" is certainly an accepted word, so I'd say 'yes' to your question.

this usage is uncontroversially fine: if i was bored or being testy as an acitivist sub editor i might switch in "saw" or "led to" depending on context (context = nature of nearby sentences acc my picky sub self lol) viz "the publication of X saw the first use of some new word"/"the publication of X led to the first use of some new word"

gloss: if "occasioned" maybe possibly presents a micro-speedbump for a reader, i think "saw" presents none, while "led to" perhaps implies the fact you note, that the new word arrives a little later than X…

you might also use "prompted"

but your sentence is fine as is imo

Yeah, I think "occasioned" there is a little overwritten and that with a little bit of effort "led to" would be much more readable.

saw (a young person) referred to as a 'third-generation holocaust survivor'

obviously the topic is fraught, but it seems like there should be a better way to describe someone whose grandparents survived the camps

A completely uncontroversial way to say that would be "a grandchild of Holocaust survivors."

And while - as mòokieproof says - it is fraught, it does seem a bit much to imply that you "survived" an event that you did not personally experience.

I am not, personally, a survivor of the Visigothic Sack of Rome, the Protestant Reformation, the Irish Potato Famine, the Trail of Tears, the American Revolution, the Civil War, or school desegregation.

Maybe (stretching this quite a bit) I have experienced some personal effects from the Cold War and/or the Vietnam War due to my parents' participation in them, but calling myself a "survivor" seems more like stolen valor than empathy and solidarity.
