is the new

I always apologize when I use this forum simply to link to cool stuff I've found online. So, I'm sorry. But you have to go check out this graphic from the folks at DIAGRAM, which I discovered thanks to Gothamist. They did a Nexis search or something on all the phrases on the pattern "X is the new Y," and built a sort of diagrammatic depiction of the results.

The color bit is the best part, but I'm quoting the most personally relevant section below. In my little world, gloomy is always the new gloomy.
