taboo

adj. Prohibited and violating social custom or sacredness, and thus not to be spoken of or disturbed. If someone mentions, defiles, or profanes something taboo, they likely will be frowned upon, shamed, or cursed.

n. A subject or entity which is taboo.

Taboo subjects such as racism and murder are widely considered inappropriate and evoke strong emotional responses.

The taboo of anti-Semitism has been ingrained in my mind, so I am annoyed by it being used as a plot device in so many movies.

Gamer Taboos

Gamer Taboos are the backbone of the average gamer's life. If but one of these are broken, the gamer will never live up to his previous peak again. The Gamer Taboos are as follows:
1. Gamers may not speak to women
2. Gamers must avoid basic hygiene at all costs
3. Gamers may not traverse within 50 ft (~15 meters) of grass, unless financially necessary (Family related instances are not allowed, unless you are Vin Diesel in the flesh.)
4. Gamers must go to sleep at a time past midnight
5. Don't use Reddit (Use of Reddit for valuable information is allowed.)

Gamer 1 - "Ayo, brb. I'm finna take a shower."
Gamer 2 - "Nah bro, don't do it; that's one of the Gamer Taboos."
Person 1 (Formerly Gamer 1) - "Hell naw, that's gross as hell." *leaves*
Gamer 2 - "smh my head."

Taboo

Usually an unspoken rule or a word, that is forbidden.

Mark: "i usually shit in public restrooms!"
Everyone is quiet
Bob: "you are probably the first person to say it out loud, it is a taboo you know?"
