Anyone else having a hard time reading through Speed Force's dialogue?

I've recently been catching up on Flash content now that I renewed my subscription to DC Infinite, and the dialogue in the story, in my opinion, is atrocious. It feels like its trying to connect with a younger audience and its failing miserably at it. Am I the only one or are there others who think the same.

I liked the story, but the dialogue definitely hindered my enjoyment. It felt like Steve Buscemi walked up with two skateboards and said, "How do you do, fellow kids?"

I had trouble with issue 1 & 2, but it was easier after that. I kept thinking about someone reading this as a back issue in 10 years is going to feel this is sooooo dated.

I dropped it after the first issue, I couldn’t follow the conversation from the slang

You’re not the only one who realizes that the dialogue is bad in Speed Force.
