I really dislike people saying "nah" instead of no. Something about it comes off as so rude, probably all the passive aggressive usage of it.
Also when people say "my guy" after a passive aggressive comment, makes me want to smack them.
Furthermore, people using "It's almost as if..." to start their pointed one sided comment on something. This is just a snarky framing device I despise.
"Chud" is funny, but its use as a one and done dismissal of the right wing is annoying, lazy leftist branding.
Lastly, using the word "folks" to address a crowd or group. Only when done by West Coasters who don't have an accent, for some reason it is grating to my ears.

More and more I don't think any of these people actually watched C.H.U.D.

The kicker (spoiler for 1984 film) is that the homeless people are being eaten by other homeless people, who have been mutated into the CHUDs by the illegally-dumped waste in the sewers. So, like, "chud" is anti-persons-experiencing-houselessness rhetoric, guyx!

It's a fun little movie, too. Ask @AnOminous ; John Goodman was in it (briefly).

Unsurprisingly I have similar feelings about the play/film Gaslight.
 
Probably been said before but "inclusive". Especially because this really misses the point of what it means.

Take kiwi farms, notorious for being critical of islam, trannies, furries, ect ect.
THIS ALL SAID, you aren't INSTANT BANNED if it comes out you are an islamic transexual furry, so one would think kiwi farms IS inclusive by definition. Except people use "inclusive" to mean you suck the dick of those groups.
 
Hearing Team Fortress 2 described as a "hero shooter" makes me irrationally angry.
I hate hero shooters like Apex, Siege, and Overwatch where there is a constant slew of “super speshul” characters with their own “personalities” and vaguely unique gimmicks, but I like TF2 where there will always be 9 distinct classes with personality and clear niches. Calling it a “hero shooter” is almost insulting as it tries to lump TF2's timeless class-based system with other games where new updates constantly change things.

When Overwatch came out, it wasn't uncommon for people to recommend TF2 if someone couldn't afford Overwatch or just wanted a free alternative. I don't think anyone called Overwatch a hero shooter back then, though. It was just a competitive FPS with colorful graphics, which was unusual for the time.
 
Not a specific term, but it's potentially demoralizing -- and annoying -- when people who push BS claim that rightly being irked by such BS is "seething" or the like. When it comes to "woke" BS, it's an attempt to "gaslight" or "socially engineer" to buy that BS.
 
My mate recently came out of a relationship and his ex was pulling the whole ''Narcissist'' card, gaslighting as well. Can't fucking stand it, it's like people learn these words from social media and give themselves a tally chart on how many times they can use the words in a day. Hearing the phrase Mental Health as well annoys the actual fuck out of me, I hear it and my ears twitch like a cat.

Also 'social media' annoys me too, I'm not on anything so I associate the platforms with just degenerate normies arguing with each other about shit that doesn't even matter.
 
Seems there's an increase in people claiming being convinced of something disliked is "brainwashing", and it's not just with SJWs.

Just because someone calls being convinced of a view "brainwashing" doesn't mean it's "brainwashing" nor that the view isn't true.

I'm sorry you sat through hours of a shitty game or movie. I'm not dropping it because it's too hard or too deep, I'm dropping it because it's a genuinely shit game/tv show.

That just means you suck corporate dick. For girls it's also techbr/asian businessman cock or they shit in a cup for arab elites. But yea good for you I guess for making 30 TikToks a day and reminding people to buy product.
 
Kind of an unpopular opinion, but:

I am tired of everyone spamming the terms woke and DEI over and over again. Every time I go check on anything GamerGate related, I just see these two terms mentioned ALL THE FUCKING TIME with a near 100% presense rate in anyone's description of a "woke" game. Don't we have better terms to describe niggerfaggot games?
