some people get bad ptsd from poo poo op. Its a bit worse than a pet peeve. but yes some people use "trigger" for things that aren't triggers because they like to be victims. i hope this settles things

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: this sovereign citizen stuff might be closer to the truth than we are willing to admit.
it's my goal in life to "trigger" as many whiny bitch millennials as humanly possible.

I had to explain to my wife what triggering was and as I was doing it (as with most internet things I try to explain to her) it hits me how loving stupid it is.

whenever you explain anything from the internet you should promptly realize 2 things, A) that its stupid and B) that you should not explain internet things irl

I just heard "trigger" with it's internet meaning yesterday on NPR. Some girl was talking about how women feel social pressure to attend parties or something

My Grandpappy gave me a call earlier and was rambling on something about trigger and pet peeves from when he was a kid. Coincidence much?!?!

Anyway, he's pushing seventy now, so I think the whole trigger "used to be" bizzo from the OP might be a bit off there.. well, unless OP is real old too.


e:Nevernind. Just went and found out what Pops was actually waffling on about earlier, so it wouldn't sound like I'm bullshitting... and his trigger pet peeve yarn revolved around...

It's probably been used when talking about PTSD issues for a long time--an event that triggers flashbacks, etc. I feel like "trigger" went from just being part of a sentence to A THING that everyone must tiptoe around on the internet because :qq:

Some warnings are definitely good to have, like if your article is about to have a graphic description of rape/murder/etc. that could really gently caress with someone with PTSD. Or, hell, could just make people super uncomfortable. But don't expect me to give a poo poo when your parents don't respect your kintype and it was triggering and you hyperventilated.

I got friends with PTSD okay :mad: That's what happens when you hang out with all the most hosed-up people :(

Of course, that all applies to real, grown-up websites that rely on grown-up ad revenue. Good thing SA lets us all be 14 again and aggrogator will stand by us to the very end!
