Getting annoyed by some words

Post by kuchitsu »

Certain words and expressions annoy me. Often they are connected to modern internet culture I guess. When I encounter constructions such as "don't be a pleb", "*** master race", or "that rustled my jimmies", I feel like I can't relate to the person using them anymore and I want to close the page.

I don't really understand why this is happening. Is it some form of perfectionism? Do I have very high standards when it comes to the beauty of speech? Am I just a grumpy old man hating on everything that's new? Why do I give these people the power to annoy me?

Your mind is just bored of its own pleb mediocrity, so it regularly invents all these fake external irritants that rustle your jimmies and stuff.

I don't care when these words are used here and there, but reading a text with abundance of such words make me stop reading whatever is written:

tiem
fuk
bak
nat
enaf
sum
agre
hev
oke
teh
cuntry
tropic
dident
disliek
duno
poar
peopel
understandabel
anderstand
veri
realli
apparentli
compleetli
clearli
actualli
properli
presumabli
amusingli

etc. (this is just an excerpt from one conversation)

I guess someone will now write a 500-word-long paragraph using just this kind of words.
