I'm not sure about 'dorky' or even what that really means, but the 'toxic positivity' from there can be really draining and fills me with dread that this is now what you are expected to be like.

I mean I'm genuinely happy for this person, but is this really the new normal for got-a-new-job announcements? It's more like an Oscars award speech.
“Me me me [trendy buzzword] me me me [gratitude].
[positive statement with no substance] me me me [another trendy buzzword].
Me me me [statement that implies I am exceptionally successful, without explicitly stating that because that would be arrogant and narcissistic] me me me [more buzzwords].
[Token statement to acknowledge others] me me me.
[buzzword buzzword buzzword]
[insincere gratitude].
And do you know whose employee’s are the worst for doing this… GOOGLES!!(from my perception anyway). They drive me nuts. With their posts that read pretty much exactly like how you just described, with a picture of themselves next to a big G.
