'Woke' sounds extremely stupid to me
Not even sure what this term means

Testing...

It means to be awake (specific in relation to issues concerning racial justice).

But if you're a white person, it's probably best that you don't use the word, at least according to (white) New York Times journalist Amanda Hess: "The conundrum is built in. When white people aspire to get points for consciousness, they walk right into the cross hairs between allyship and appropriation" (i.e. whatever a white person does, it's destined to be wrong).

'Problematic'

Admittedly, I use it a lot, but it annoys me. Basically it's a euphemism for 'we can't have nice things anymore'.

Everyone, (including people out of college or higher than blue-collar class) using the F-word in every single sentence, in fact using it so much, that it loses all meaning.

You see, I take all my F-bombs, and store them away for when I'm reaaalllly angry about something *smiles impishly* (I don't get super-angry very often) and then use them when the time is right, and they have the impact I'm hoping for.

Oh, I was just saying “f-bomb” is a modern expression I despise.

"Butthurt" even though I sometimes use it.

reply

[–] snepts (11123) 5 years ago

Yeah, I used to see that a lot here, especially in the Trump threads, all these dickheads equating the mockery of this presidency as a bunch of people being "butthurt." What a stroke of genius !

Really? is also my #1 hated expression.

reply

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Really?

I probably say that too much. Using it at all is too much I imagine would be your reply.
