I don't think so. For one, I Grandpa and Dad are probably related. Plus John Hates cake and harlequins, why would he showcase them all over the place if he knew that?

I'm guessing it's because they're directly related to each other.

Also, tell me you didn't just say totes. Please.

It's another word that people have changed so it's quicker to say, like 'prubs' or 'lats' (probably and later). Means 'totally'.

The English language cannot be rushed, philistines.

Tote can also be a verb, meaning "to carry," or an adjective, as in "a tote bag."  This may be shortened to "tote" (noun) and hence "totes."

... I imagine you didn't mean it like that, though?

If they are themselves from the future, I'll have one massive "I told you so" to cash in on.

It's wanton butchery of the English language is what it is.

The English language cannot be rushed, philistines.
It can. It always has, and it will be for a long, long time. This is with every language, not just English. You know -ed used to be pronounced with an audible e? So used would be pronounced "yoo-sed" instead of "yoozd". In Italian, adjacent syllables were made identical because it was easier to pronounce - so "nocte" became "notte", "somno" became "sonno", etc. The Old English "hlaf-weard" became quickly pronounced, "hlaford", "laferd", "lowered", and now it is "lord". In French, the word "aout", pronounced "oo", came from the mighty "Augustus", simply because people, over centuries, wanted to save time. The word "peach" used to be called "persica malus" in Latin, "Persian apple". People have always shortened or twisted words to rush the English language, in fact any language at all, and as long as it is understandable, I don't see the problem.
