cunt

The granddaddy of all swear words, in America we're weirdly offended by this word for some reason, whereas the Brits and Aussies know that it's no more offensive than any other vulgar word. Some people say it's inherently a slur against women, which is just silly, it CAN be a slur against women if you're a misogynist shitbird who just uses it that way, otherwise it's just another swear word and we Americans need to get over it.
Literally it's a perfectly good slang word for the female genitals, figuratively it refers to a person (of any gender) who is SO unpleasant and awful, that lesser swear words just won't do, and thus it serves a legitimate linguistic need and we should all stop being such cunts about the word cunt.
In Scotland they practically greet each other by calling each other cunts, why are we so uptight about the word cunt in this stupid cunt-ry?

shitbird

More specific than just an asshole, douchebag, dickhead, etc., a shitbird is someone who is extremely selfish, entitled, and narcissistic, and does ONLY what is most convenient for THEM, with absolutely no regard for how it makes other people's lives worse and fucks up the social order. They believe that ALL rules, laws, and social conventions are inherently oppressive, and rebel against all authority simply for the sake of rebelling against authority, even when said authority is 100% reasonable. The shitbird's life philosophy is "My enjoyment above all", and frequently say "You're not the boss of me/You can't tell me what to do!". They do things like drive recklessly, cut in lines, throw trash wherever they want, and whatever else they feel like, with no guilt whatsoever. They think "freedom" means "complete anarchy". Other words for shitbird are "libertine" and "sociopath". Like pigeons who shit all over a statue, the shitbird just likes to shit all over everything, and leave other, decent people to clean up their messes.
People who didn't follow mask and vaccine mandates during the COVID pandemic, because their own personal comfort took priority over not killing people in their vicinity with a deadly virus, are shitbirds.

Internet Badass Syndrome

An affliction that causes people to say things to people over the distance of an Internet connection that, if they ever DARED to say to a person in a face-to-face conversation, would likely result in them getting knocked on their ass and maybe a trip to the hospital, but behind the safety of their monitor where nobody can physically touch them, they can behave like complete and utter shitbirds with no consequences, because as we all know, the Internet isn't real, of course, and the person you're mouthing off to isn't a real human being, with emotions of their own.

It is closely related to the similar affliction that causes people to become total sociopaths when behind the wheel of a car, where they are similarly safe from physical retribution.
If the technology were invented tomorrow to make it possible to punch a person in the face over TCP/IP, Internet Badass Syndrome would vanish almost overnight, and the Internet would be the most civil, polite place ever.

Big Pharma

A disparaging term for the pharmaceutical industry, which is obviously the source of all the world's evils, is 100% full of greedy, unethical fucks, and never, ever does anything good, because modern medicine is a complete scam. Ironically, people who spout this crap, most likely take an Advil when they get a headache.

Note that occasionally, pharmaceutical companies DO engage in unethical behavior (and usually get caught, and pay massive fines for it), but to listen to these people speak, it's the entire industry's default mode of operation, all that they ever do, and there isn't a single honest person in the entire field.

Very much less commonly, if you know someone who works in the pharma industry, and is job-searching, you might hear them say something like "I would prefer to work for small pharma rather than big pharma", but this is very much not the popular usage, 99.999999% it's just some idiot.
Big Pharma is a scam, there's a pill for EVERYTHING these days! I would much rather go back to the days when people died of easily-treatable illnesses, and the life expectancy was 40!

woo-woo

(Sometimes shortened to just "woo") A catch-all term for all the non-scientific, magical-thinking, mystical bullshit that human beings the world over believe in, that should have been dispensed with a LONG time ago by anyone with half a brain, but annoyingly still persists into the 21st century. Includes tarot, astrology, crystal vibrations, fortune telling, reiki, alternative medicine, ghosts, Ouija boards, palm-reading, seances, homeopathy, and all other similar flavors of total horseshit. Importantly, does NOT include religion, because religion is a whole other, higher echelon of irrational thinking that is its own separate category.
Dumbass: I aligned my third, fourth and seventh chakras on the cusp of Taurus and communed with my dead ancestors, who told me that you will have good fortune in the coming year. Now give me your money, please.
Rational Person: Get out of here with that woo-woo shit.

horseshit

Horseshit is a form of nonsense that is subtly different from bullshit, in that bullshit is something that the person preaching KNOWS is nonsense, but preaches anyway (disingenuously), whereas horseshit is nonsense that the person actually fully believes, because they are stupid.
When Joe Biden says that he cares about migrants, that is bullshit. When Trumpers believe that Biden stole the election, that is horseshit.
