Avoider 

A person who does everything within their power to avoid taking accountability for their life and decisions. They'll expect their lives to improve magically through no effort of their own, have an acute and outspoken sense of toxic entitlement, and blame circumstances out of their control, society, or mental health, for their bad fortune while actively avoiding all actions that would lead them to betterment. The typical avoider will live with someone vulnerable to their alleged plight and leech off them, creating a manipulative, abusive and/or at least parasitic relationship that loops each time a solution is suggested.

Avoiders become aggressive when advice is given to them, no matter how convenient or simple, as anyone with a differing view or options is painted as not trying to understand them but causing more stress instead. This is done as a shield, and often recalled for the express purpose of acting out a guilt trip. As they often have no real income they may be found begging and manipulating their friends for money, then bragging about how well they're doing, until the funds run out. Avoiders are unwilling to change and should, in turn, be avoided themselves.

Avoider: "I'm so depressed. Nothing is working out for me."
Friend: "We had a 6 hour talk with a recruiter willing to set you u-"
Avoider: "Wow I can't believe I'm in such a state and all you can think about is work. Whatever. Bye.."

Conflict Avoider 

Somebody, (typically a female, but in rare cases a "homophobe" male) who is so terrified of conflict and desiring of consensus, that they can't say anything that might result in someone thinking negatively about them. Their fear of saying “no” regardless of the truth results in a “life in the closet” and the constant stress of whether they should venture out or continue to live with the internal unrest. Conflict avoiders often times seek a weekly haven, typically religious but occasionally male bonding activities, where they don’t have worry that they might lose a vote if they say something insensitive.

Rick: “Hey Jeff, I don’t feel like spending my own money on tickets to the game – can I have yours?”

Jeff: “Oh sure Rick, you can have one of mine and don’t worry about the money, I’m sure you’re good for $1000 and will pay me back when you can”.

Rick: “Yeah, sure, call the office, and I said I wanted “tickets” as in 4, you dipshit”.

Jeff: “No problem Rick, I really didn’t want to go anyway and my wife would really enjoy me spending the day at home”.

Rick: "what a pussy that "conflict avoider" is. The dipshit just gave me 4 tickets to the game and he can get in line behind the other dummies I'm never paying back."

Is your wife coming to the beach for Labor Day? No. She just came back from container store, so she’ll be working on arranging and sorting every item in our house this weekend. She’s an organizing avoider.

plague avoider

A person who tries to avoid getting or spreading SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19 and Long Covid/PASC) through methods like improving ventilation, using HEPA filters, wearing respirators, keeping up to date on wastewater data and case numbers to decide whether to increase or decrease precautions, and self-testing. Being a plague avoider is also known as being covid conscious, or CC for short. In the first few years of the COVID-19 pandemic, avoiding the plague was perfectly normal, but plague avoiders are now in the minority and are often harassed or mocked for the precautions they take.

I'm the only plague avoider at work and I'm the only one who hasn't had to call in sick lately, but my boss doesn't seem to understand how those things are related, so he keeps trying to get me to stop wearing a mask.
