Snarky internet cynicism was "once new," too.

Check out the abstract for an article on the Target Center at Minnesota Public Radio's website:

"Minneapolis' top priority during the upcoming legislative session will be some relief in the form of state aid for the Target Center. Once new, the facility isn't attracting high-profile acts, and it's running in the red." (emphasis mine).

"Once new"? You mean, the Target Center isn't like God, ageless and eternal? There was a time when the Target Center was "new"?

"Once new"? I mean, can't we say that about, well, absolutely everything in the universe? "Once new." Classic.
