I’m a gen-Xer and I wish I was a boomer like my parents: they lived their whole life in peace, while I won’t leave this dirtball without witnessing crazy fascists and crazy religious nutjobs start world war 3.
Call it dogma and tribalism. Religious nutjob is a compliment to those that value piety. Calling it words they must look up and ponder in dumbfounded stupidity has a sliver of potential to motivate curiosity and self reflection… I’m speaking from empirical heuristics here.

Oh my, that is the worst one I have had in a long time. Maybe it is the beer and 10:30 at night but I totally forgot about this one and was reading both definitions dumbfounded for a moment. Wow, getting old sucks… That’s the one I’m settling on. Hopefully this stupid-feeling moment is memorable for a few years at least. Thanks.
I managed to use obsequious, opprobrium, and schadenfreude today. Then you blow me out of the water with this one. Touché.
