    Is that where you aggressively seize the picante sauce?
    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

            My wife once defined "check your privilege" as "a really, really passive-aggressive way of expressing envy."

                From wiki,

                "Over time, the cumulative effect of microaggressions can lead to diminished self-confidence and a poor self-image, and potentially also to mental health problems such as depression, anxiety and trauma.[17][19][21][22] Many researchers[who?] have argued that microaggressions are actually more damaging than overt expressions of bigotry precisely because they are small and therefore often ignored or downplayed, leading the victim to feel self-doubting rather than justifiably angry, and isolated rather than supported."

                Chik-Fil-A is causing liberals trauma by continually existing.

                    Yeah. Me too.

                    People should give fair warning before using that phrase.

                        Are you an aggressive patriarch or a microaggressive patriarch? Microaggressive patriarchs cause more trauma in their victims.

                          The only time I ever hear about terms like this is when some idiot gets offended by them.

                            The idiots aren't offended by this because they're idiots.

                                I think people are amused by this, which is the proper response.
