Words I try to avoid saying these days: - Guys - Crazy/Insane - Retarded - Lame - Suicide Nice to try to not cause people grief.

@atommorgan I think in general I'm just trying to be more precise in the words I use. -
wait, we can't say crazy now? Like "yo this kid just fell off his bike, that shit was crazy"?

I try to not pretend I know what can trigger bad memories for someone. I can just use more precise language.

Isn't that the most subjective thing ever? Anything could theoretically be a trigger for someone, somewhere.
-
Theoretically yes. In practice bell curve rules the world, and avoiding what's easily avoidable works.

There is never a guarantee your words won't upset someone, but it's easy to decrease that probability

Just like unit tests: they're not supposed to catch all errors in universe but should be reasonable
