Apology was for people offended by an aquarium using teen slang to connect with today’s youth.

Truly a tragedy.

Teen slang? Thicc has been around online since around 2010, and IRL for even longer. That means anyone who was a teen when it became popularized is pushing 30 now.

Chloe is determined to be offended on someone else's behalf today tho

How did you gather she's offended from that single message? I don't see any words suggesting that. Perhaps you're overly defensive right now, and one might say, offended that someone sees things differently to you.
