I want to take back ‘Retard’. Because I want it to apply to things that are infuriatingly stupid, instead of it being used as a derogatory term towards special needs people.

    I’d redefine “woke” as “I’m going to blame this all on you, but really it’s me. Your issue doesn’t affect me directly, but I don’t like it and I can’t explain why, I can’t even explain it to myself. But I don’t want to discuss it or understand you. I just want to shut down this conversation because it might expose my lack of thinking past my own nose and empathy, because ughhhhh empathy.”
