“Myself” used instead of “me” - eg, “Come talk to Ann or myself.”
Even worse, Myself used as the subject in place of "I".
I think I need this one explained. People are saying, “Jane and myself went the store.”???

I hate the use of spicy to mean “painful.” I have heard it in fitness classes and also at the dentist’s. “This is going to feel a little spicy now.”’dumb euphemism

Oh, or, I went to a famous BBQ place recently and they asked me lean or moist, and I ordered lean because I just cannot say moist, even though I wanted moist. Today I went to Raising Cane’s and had to order from a guy who was pretty cute, I wanted the three finger combo but there’s no way I could say that to him so I panicked and ordered a kid’s meal. Similar, during COVID I went to Walmart to get toilet paper, and they had a setup where you had to ask an employee and they’d get it from the back. The employee was this completely gorgeous man, and I could not bring myself to ask him for toilet paper, so I left.
Grow up.
It's obvious PP has some anxiety/social struggles.

I'm really tired of the phrase "it's giving..." As in "it's giving desperation" or "it's giving fierce." I hear it a lot in fashion/culture journalism and it's giving ... me a headache.

Why can't you just say comfortable? Why is everyone speaking like a toddler? Also: yummy. Are you two? Is your vocabulary that limited?
Agree. Add to that “uncomfy.”

People over use words like "gross" and "disgusting"!
