A similar-meaning word dat overly-critical/righteous people wag a disapproving finger and/or cluck their tongues about if you utter it.
Before you come down on someone too much about seemingly-unacceptable word-choices, be sure to consider whether you sometimes use sinonyms yourself.

Someone who makes a detailed history-study of da human race, and then publishes his findings dat are laced with regretful remarks and penitent statements regarding our deplorable behavior over da past millennia.
Da Bible seems to gloss over --- and even sometimes glorify --- accounts of horrendous violence and debauchery; what we need to do is find a good anthrapologist to carefully go through it and re-work its text to show how disgracefully da described characters truly acted, express how sorry he is about said wanton misbehavior, and lay out specific advisories about da drastically different ways dat modern readers should perform in order to "be better than dat".

A.k.a. "courtesy scratch"; it involves your helpfully scratching someone's back in a spot where he has difficulty reaching himself.
Giving someone a supplementary scratch is indeed a very nice gesture, but da prob is dat you cannot know where it itches on your friend's back, and so you may hafta do a good bit of "up/down-left/right" trial-and-error scratching till you finally hit da right spot.

Refers to a "consideration for sleepers" action whereby --- in order to briefly look at something from the doorway of a pitch-dark room in which you know that one or more other humans are seeking a little shut-eye --- you first open up your own eyelids extra-wide to allow yourself maximum visibility, and then perform a super-quick "on-off" action (one-half-second at the absolute maximum) with the room's light-switch, so that you are able to check on whatever you needed to know (such as that there is nothing on the floor between you and the sleeper's bed, and thus you can safely tiptoe forward in the dark and crawl in with the slumberer without tripping), but minimize the disturbance of the sleepy person(s) by not having the ceiling-lamp lit long enough for him to even be much aware of it.
Considerate dude who's staying overnight at his girlfriend's apartment: I always use the "single-strobe light-flick" prior to re-joining Tiffany in her bed after I visit the Little Boys' Room during the night, just to make sure that neither of her cats has decided to stretch itself out on the floor of the bedroom. It avoids any unexpected "yowls in the dark", plus Tiffany tells me that she seldom even notices my brief room-illuminations, so that's a good thing.

Sarcastic term for when someone with "sticky fingers" embarks on a wildly-rampaging "seizure" of other people's stuff.
When authorities searched a dwelling that was jam-packed with stolen merchandise, the lead investigator eyeball-rollingly remarked to his companions that the place looked like the proceeds of an epikleptic fit.

Supposedly they've located da remains of Noah's famous work of master carpentry, so he must have had exceptional arkitecture skills to create something dat lasted for untold millennia like dat!
