Theory of Constructed Idioms

The idea that common phrases ("it's raining cats and dogs," "break a leg") are miniature cultural constructions. Their meaning isn't literal, but is built and maintained through shared use within a group. To an outsider, they're nonsense. To an insider, they carry condensed cultural knowledge and solidarity. Idioms are proof that even our most casual speech is built on layers of shared, invisible agreement.

Example: "I told my British colleague I'd 'touch base' later. He was confused—was I playing baseball? The Theory of Constructed Idioms kicked in: that phrase is a constructed piece of U.S. corporate-speak, building a sense of shared, casual urgency. My literal words were meaningless; the constructed, agreed-upon meaning was 'I'll update you,' which only works if you're in that specific language club."

Wicked racist idiot

A wicked racist that is an idiot. A guy who sexually abuse, and rape men because of their ethnicity, and encourage that man’s ethnicity to sexually abuse, and rape men of his own ethnicity. Converting male sexual abuse victims into child molesters. Also, like to used prejudice towards certain ethnicities about what men of another ethnicity did to his own people of a different ethnicity, even though his own people did the same thing to people of another ethnicity, or more. Basically, a douchebag towards another ethnicity because of his people’s wickedness to that person’s ethnicity trying to make themselves look good, and innocent.

Wicked racist idiot: (rapes a man of a certain ethnicity, and raise men of another ethnicity to sexually abuse, and rape men of his ethnicity of his ethnicity, but only that ethnicity, but not all ethnicities. Even, if it was all ethnicities. He’s an idiot).
