"R U TRIGGERED" and all its subvariants were radioactive toxic waste and turned a valid and important psychological concept into bullying vector that for a time had nearly universal acceptance.

I still see vestiges of "le epic bacon" out there but it's mostly confined to aging :grillman: types and some :up-yours-woke-moralists: cultists and a few contrarian carninist edgelords that want to "trigger the vegans." Yes I know all of the above have a lot of overlap.

    No matter how annoying it is I think 'gross loser V cool jock' is an eternal template.

      If it isn't eternal it does have at least a century or two of precedent. https://i.redd.it/9nyj8j2mv1mz.jpg
