The word "before" is no longer used by today's media, in print and on the internet. It has been replaced by "ahead of." Take note of those 2 word replacing one perfectly good word---you will see the substitution today if you take heed. Prepare for "It was the night ahead of Christmas..."
Next utterances you don't hear anymore are partner words, word that express irritation or aggravation. The words are "darn" and "damn." They used to be heard regularly, reflecting degrees of exasperation. They have pretty much disappeared from usage, being replaced by "friggin" and "f**kin." The latter words roll off the tongue with much more ease.
