euphonium

a low brass instrument with 3 or 4 valves that can be played in treble or bass clef. hardly anybody knows what it is so euphonium players often get tired of explaining it. they are usually the least ignorant section in low brass and the smallest and most talented section in the band.

band director: can someone please explain the coda to the trombones!?
euphonium section: we can! we can!

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.

euphoric

A feeling of intense existential peace and happiness. Can only be felt if you:

Have watched an accumulated 300 hours of Richard Dawkins and/or Neil Degrasse Tyson debates on youtube
Own a fedora*
Have a favorite MLP character
Have been in at least 200 religious debates in no less than 10 online forums

*If you have/considered having a feather in your fedora, you may reduce the amount of required youtube religious debates by half.

"My heart is heavy. This cause offers no respite, but my body grows tired and weak.

I look down at my hand. It is swollen from years of carrying this weight upon myself. The weight of knowing I am the only barrier between the future of humanity and the wretched, corrupting nature of religious thought. But looking deeper I see something more. In my hands I carry the very essence of the Universe. I exist not because of the will of a man in the sky, but by the majesty and wonder of the Universe.

I rise from my chair, my body illuminated by the light of my monitor. Putting on my fedora, I give one last tip to the fine life I've lived. As the pain shoots through my arm, I bask in the glory that is my own existence and intelligence.

In this moment, I am euphoric. In this moment, I transcend."
