As someone who lived through the era that was desperately trying to be recreated in the story, I found the entire experience pandering. However, I thought the dialogue was an attempt at a new leet speak or future way of talking.

Same here. I'm the same age as Cline and got all but literally two of the references in the book. It was at the point that I actually felt bad for the characters, who live in a world where there is practically no original art.
But a lot of people enjoyed it and it got a little lot of people into reading, so that's a plus.
