A lot of the bigger names have made nods toward mitigating this, if only to deflect bad PR. Coachella (not exactly a trailblazer in this space but less disastrous than it used to be, all things considered) has efforts like Carpoolchella, plus cutesy on-site features like phone chargers you power by riding a bike or a see-saw.

To make it a little less cutesy, Mr. Malloy studied not only college a cappella (three "Octet" actors and Annie Tippe, the show's director, are veterans of the New York University a cappella group N'Harmonics), but also Tuvan throat singing, Appalachian shape note singing, German yodeling choirs, Balkan choruses and the work of composer-performers like Meredith Monk and Caroline Shaw.

The most significant change is the new visual style, a cutesy 2.5D look that has the appealing side effect of making the whole surreal world look like it was made out of plastic, as if Link and everyone else on Koholint is a toy and one wrong nudge of the game console could send them all tumbling to the carpet.

Brosnahan is never better than when she's tearing through this material, and Sherman-Palladino is terrific at finding new ways to tell stories about Midge both succeeding and bombing (and sometimes bombing by succeeding, in a male-dominated industry that doesn't particularly want to hear her lacerating takes on the men who will always regard her as a cutesy-faced sideshow).

A good rule of thumb for accessible design is that it's generally better designers aim for concreteness with iconography and the like, rather than be cutesy and abstract because it's en vogue and "looks cool" (the idea being a visually impaired person can more easily distinguish something that looks like a button as opposed to something that is technically a button but which looks like text).

It would be inefficient to run through them all, but just know that Postmates makes $1 billion worth of sales annually, GrubHub (which owns Seamless) was valued at $2 billion when it went public in 2014, and there is a ridiculous number of alcohol delivery startups that essentially all have cutesy names that sound like a euphemism for peeing or sexual harassment (Thirstie, Drizly, Tipsy, and so on).

Walking around 6th and East Austin, which for a week served as a graveyard of mixtapes and flyers for rappers that couldn't even aspire to be Post Malone's weed carrier, I saw a lot of posters advertising Babymetal, the Japanese girl metal band that takes nu-metal and deathcore and presents it with a hyperactive, cutesy image that infuriates many metalheads—perhaps because it feels more authentic than the same faux-rebel shit they've been spoonfed since teenagerdom.

Festivalgoers discussed the fact that Penny actually has the abortion — no last-minute miscarriages thanks to falling down the stairs — and how its perspective is very different than 2007's twin mainstream films that laughed off abortion in a cutesy, winking fashion: Juno and Knocked Up. The only recent mainstream film to dive into abortion as something that occurs with no hand-wringing is 2014's Obvious Child, a charming and small movie that will never match Dirty Dancing's omnipotence.

Her music glossy, twangy, encased in shiny resin, her voice distinctively modest and lucid, like your neighbor just down the street, Clark is as much a middlebrow queen as Kacey Musgraves, whose Pageant Material last year jolted the formal stasis of modern country, and by extension good old-fashioned traditional American values, and by further extension the cutesy feelgood blandness that occupies so throbbing a place in the national heart, by setting those elements against explicitly progressive or at least liberal content in a clever dialectical synthesis.
