What word or term annonys you? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Please don't think I'm here to complain about rizz or skibidi toilet etc. Thats all fine by me.

The term I dislike strongly is 'eeeh' before you make a statement disagreeing with someone. (This is over text only). Now maybe I've been pavloved bc it's always used by someone disagreeing. But I'm happy with people disagreeing with me normally its just the 'eeeh' or 'erm' that annoys me.

So what's a random term that annoys you?

PS. Saying "eeeh actually 'eeh' is a perfectly fine term" would be a ridiculously easy joke and I will judge you for making it. And I know atleast one person will. Especially bow that I've said all this.

Aight. I'm glad your anecdotal experience in life is indicative of mine and what I've interacted with, seen, and read.

Iono why I tried interacting with a hex user in the first place. It always seems to end up in derision and self-labeled omniscience.

Nobody cares about settler anecdotes; not when very recent mass-market slop (I have no respect for A Song of Ice and Fire; especially not after the "Grimdark Low Fantasy that FUCKS"/"fantasy for people who would rather be watching the Sopranos" adaptation) provides a much more likely outcome for why this phrase is back in the zeitgeist than a poem from the 1800s.

Amerikans don't read poetry anymore as it is; if they even read at all. Midwesterners, man; I'd rather talk to a full-time coastal elite than some of you crackers

Thank you for proving the point.

Proving mine just as easily, smuglord.

Don't you have a timeshare in Florida or Arizona to be scuttling your way toward like the snow-lice you are?

"Anecdotal evidence" lmao. Yeah bud the historical analysis and the reference to trends are super anecdotal. Sorry for not providing you with leagues of documents in what I thought was a chill civil interaction.

Aight.

rage-cry <- You. I cannot imagine getting this butthurt over a casual conversation.

Iono why I tried interacting with a hex user in the first place. It always seems to end up in derision and self-labeled omniscience.

If you meet a person who stinks, then you've met a person who stinks. If everyone stinks, then you've stepped in dogshit - Dalai Llama. The Llama also told you to look inwards and be less of a redditor. Also to drop this weird faux-conversation tone you've suddenly adopted in an attempt to appear above it all. He said it's cringe.

Anyways here's the poem with a significantly different meaning of sweet summers child - because of course it is. The meaning of sweet summer child only makes sense within the universe of GoT. https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=mGQSAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA52#v=onepage&q&f=false - It is here referring a lovely breeze, a sweet child of the summer.
And whoops what's this? https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=Sweet%20summer%20child&hl=da Oh wow would you look at that, it sees a drastic increase alongside the release of the first season of GoT. Odd. Huh. I'd go into the interesting reasons for why the first usage doesn't line up with the series release or the first book, but you're being a whiny little pissant so now I'd rather not and hopefully annoy you some more.
Fuck you
