Upper middle class liberals say it now to show black people how cool they are. Also can't say 'you guys' because that's offensive.

And yet, when we tell them to get back to Africa to be with "fellow people of colour" they go apemad...

I knew this neckbeard dude that unironically used the word genuflect a lot. I'm sure it made him feel like an intellectual badass that made all the ladies' panties wet, but it was just absolutely cringe-worthy.

 

[Pimpbaa]

Definitely "problematic" and "woke". Woke my ass, they are sleeping in their own little safe space fantasy world and lash out at anyone that tried to wake them from that.

I'll have to second a few things already mentioned here:

-Problematic: This is one of those words that's annoying more for the way it's used rather than the word itself. Usually, I see people use it as a synonym for "bad because it goes against my beliefs" without any further prodding. You can just say something is problematic without having to go into further reasoning and have that be that. It's intellectually lazy.

-Toxic: pretty much for the same reasons as "problematic," which is too bad because I used to actually like the word "toxic" as a colorful alternative to "negative/manipulative." Apparently the rest of society did too and decided to jump on it. It's become another lazy label to affix to anyone you want to smear.

-Cum: This word is just gross to me, I dunno. I think pretty much any other word for semen is better. Plus, it's sullied a perfectly valid and oft-used verb ("come") irreparably. I hate this nauseating word. "Cum" can suck it.

 

[Aurelian]

Utilize: Just say "use," folks. People who try "utilize" are just trying to sound officious.

Orientate: Same deal -- it's just people hoping that adding some extra syllables will make "orient" sound more elaborate than it really is.

"Bet". Yeah its a cool, hip way of just simply saying "You bet," but most people have no idea what the fuck that means when they see just that word. Stop it. It's cool, but, stop.

Or I'm just too old. Fuck it.
