A severe malady of the throat/lungs caused by the over-use of euphemisms. More serious than emphasisema --- a somewhat-similar but less-acute/chronic coughing/wheezing condition caused by habitually speaking urgently/loudly about unimportant topics --- it is generally only treatable by diligently avoiding all forms of "meaningless adjectives", even the "milder" or "imitation" phrases.
Although euphemisema is a serious disease, it is still morally-preferable to using actual swear words, since this can cause even more horrid effects on those within earshot. Therefore is it less selfish to"take one for the team" and get sick yourself , rather than searing others' tender eardrums with a perpetual potty-mouth.
