Trigger

A trigger is an experience that causes a person to recall a traumatic moment in their life. Often misused by assholes trying to belittle people's horrible experiences.

Tina: Hearing people talking about dogs hit by cars triggers me because I saw my dog die that way.

Neptune's trident

One of the Holy Grail sexual acts. This involves one man and three women. The lucky man will have one woman on his penis and one hand in each of the other two women. This makes him look like Neptune's tri-pronged trident.

And like everything nautical, the whole thing smells of fish and is very slippery.

Nick: "I scored big the other day, I hit on three chicks and they did Neptune's trident with me."
Dude: "Way to go my man! You IS a sex god!"

Triggered

A trivialization of the psychological term for the effect wrought on an individual when items or events remind them of trauma they have suffered; an attempt to smear the holder of an opinion which with one disagrees; a simple-minded reply to any evidence which one has been told is fake news.

A: Climate change , by altering world weather patterns and sea levels, among other effects, threatens to cause traumatic dislocation and famine.
B: Triggered!

trigger

Trigger. Noun. 1. A small device that releases a spring or catch and so sets off a mechanism, especially in order to fire a gun.
2. Something which causes debilitating flashbacks, intense emotional and physical reactions, and even hallucinations in individuals suffering from PTSD. These can sometimes require emergency medical response and hospitalization. Those suffering from PTSD generally get treated through CBT and DBT to better function in society and live more normal lives.
3. Tumblr's synonym for "Anger" and "Annoyance". Tumblr is a place where people pretend to suffer from PTSD and other mental disorders and then claim to be "triggered" by things such as free speech, responsibilities, criticism, and reality.

Hey Dave! Could you take a look at my rifle? The trigger is jamming and I am no good repairing things like that.

Our neighbor Bob is a veteran, so we respectfully decline to shoot any fireworks on July 4th. He watched several of his lifelong friends die and is partially deaf from an explosion. Hearing anything that sounds like bombardment is a trigger for the poor guy.

Anita was triggered by a post online about the health benefits of sex which only mentioned heterosexual and homosexual sex, making no reference to cross-species intercourse. Because xe considers xerself a badger-kin, xe felt discriminated against and decided to rant about it on Tumblr.
