I dunno, I’d really love to start calling people I don’t like “the eye of satan’s butthole” and/or “sauron”. I’ve also always loved the word “turd”.
I’m rather partial to “rude-ass,” “Unsubstantive,” and “Douchkazoo” (ironically, because I think appending ‘douche’ to various words only holds merit as a mockery of other insults’ absurdity) myself.
On a slightly more serious note, I really do think it’s uncool how casually people are basically accused of having a mental disorder. I really didn’t want to use the word “accused” because it’s really strong but I couldn’t think of another better word. But I’m kind of like wow you called her depressed/bipolar/OCD that’s cute cause you know people don’t actually have that problem and have to deal with it. And don’t even get me started on the “you should go kill yourself” shit. But that’s just me complaining about things I have little control over, and as the rest of my family would say I’ll “just have to deal with it”.
Because my biggest pet peeve is people using words or phrases without really appreciating their meaning, I hate it much more (not more than the ‘kill yourself thing,’ naturally; just the other things) when people describe themselves as having OCD (also when they use OCD as an adjective but that’s sort of minor).
OCD, as a disorder, is when you repeat actions or make them hella meticulous as a way to distract yourself and block out thoughts you don’t want to be having. It’s definitely not ”I like to have my pencils straight on my desk because it looks nice.”
Calling a predisposition towards aesthetic nicety ‘OCD’ is really disrespectful to people who do have the disorder; it’s equivocating:
- the often abhorred daily routine under which they unwillingly suffer
to:
- a trifling matter that you don’t even really give a shit about in any significant capacity.
