I hate the word 'Consumer' or I mockingly call it 'CONSOOMER'. Because that's to imply everyone in the world is just cattle, but with wallets. We're no longer customers. We're consumers now. And a consumer's purpose is to consume shit, whatever is put out there. Got money? Shut up and consume, it's what corporate interests and capitalism itself thrive on. Consume and consume.

I had a girl tell me to eat her cunt and I immediately disengaged. Cunt is a great fun word as long as it's anything but a vagina. There are plenty of other words she could have said that day and I still would have blown her

Yummy. It inflicts 20 points of psychic damage every time I hear it used unironically whithin earshot. Other than that, no particular reason.

When people say "I'm obsessed with..." or "I'm so here for that." or any variation of these.

Rental property owners, especially corporate apartment building owners, referring to their property as units. It completely dissociates it from the notion that those are people living in there.
