taekai

The pairing between SHINee's Taemin and EXO's Kai. Take the 'Tae' and the 'Kai' to form 'Taekai.'

If they happen to be at the same event, one will find his way to the other no matter what it takes. They are often confused as a couple and neither has outright denied or acknowledged it. Instead, Taemin enjoys revealing nearly everything that happens between them, with or without the intentions of making everyone suspect that they're more than friends.

A: Did you see the way Taemin tiptoed and closed his eyes like he was going to kiss Kai?
B: Yeah. When will Taekai accidentally kiss?

euphemism treadmill

The process by which a pejorative term is replaced by a more politically correct term, only to over time be corrupted and used pejoratively itself until a new term is introduced, upon which the cycle repeats itself.

So named because walking on a treadmill gives you the illusion of going somewhere, when actually not making any progress. Basically a form of political correctness masturbation.

The best example of a euphemism treadmill is the word "retarded", which was originally adopted as a more apt and kinder alternative to previous medical terms such as "moron", "imbecile", and "idiot".

"Retarded" is currently considered a pejorative insult, so new terms have been invented such as "special needs" and "intellectualy disabled" , which will in time become pejorative insults themselves. Thus retarded SJW's, downie parents, and the self-righteous will always have something to bitch about.
