Where a person decides to target another person for reasons which may, or may not, be obvious. It may be a work colleague who decides to undermine and belittle a co-worker, or it could be a person who makes it their objective to slander the reputation of a 'friend' or associate. Essentially, it is a targeted attack against one person, for reasons that are not necessarily tangible. Trying to find someone to target and humiliate.

A search for something that isn’t real, or proven to be real.

Searching for something that will never be found because it does not exist.
Originally used in midieval times to search for people who were thought to be witches. “We’re going on a ‘witch hunt’”... But since we now know that witches are not real the term has evolved to mean to search for something not real.

An activity usually undertaken after parades, parties, carnival nights and gigs involving a small group of friends going around looking for sex-crazed teenagers in the bushes surrounding the said area.

Especially effective in small country towns where you can make a game of finding and humiliating the town slut.

Feel it rising ..

Tensions all time high ..

lol what’s so funny is someone trying to look calm, unbothered and doing a half decent convincing act when they clearly are bothered as they continue to do something they know upsets someone else ..

On purpose

Daily

Week in

Week out

Like creating a problem .. and instead of avoiding said persons house actually stand outside go past many times a day looking in …

Yep I’m the witch …

Obviously

All eyes on me .. as usual

I have said this kinda upsets my karma

Saying this escalates said behaviours I know

Yet say nothing and it’s like admitting defeat in a sense…

Depressed people are easy targets …

Get witched out proper easy

Bit of a shame I guess when that no longer flies

Warrior spirit .. from times and ages you can’t begin to imagine … so doesn’t faze me just really fucking annoys

Which is why the witch hunt continues to this very day …

And beyond most probs … peachelicious …
Witch hunt .. yay ..
