You Are Not A Goddamn Chocoholic |
|
It pisses me off to no end when I hear people talking about how they are ' chocoholics'. The word makes no sense, it's annoying as hell, and the people who say it obviously dumbasses. The word should be wiped from people's vocabularies and people that still use it should be beaten.
First off, the word itself is stupid. Chocoholic comes from the words Chocolate and Alcoholic. They were combined, and thus you have the word chocoholic. The only issue with this is that Alcoholics are addicted to Alcohol. Therefore, chocoholics should be addicted to chocohol. Are they? No. Following that line of thought, even if it were the proper word, which would be even less attractive, chocolatics, that would still imply that they are addicted to chocolate, which 99.9% of the world is not.
It doesn't end with chocoholics though. You hear variations of it all the time. I've heard laughaholics, jokaholics, and even cokeaholics. The people that I hear this from are usually cockaholics. See, that usually would have been a pretty funny joke, but the fact that it's like chocoholic makes it unfunny. Damn.
When I hear somebody say the word chocoholic, and I hesitate to call it a word, or any variations of it, I get angry. I tend to hit people, break things, and yell out curse words. Sure, this might not sound much different from me when I'm not enraged, but I make it much worse.
It's slaughter of the English language. The Brits created the language and the Canadians perfected it so that it would be used as a means of a communication, not as a means of pissing me off. Next time you think of using the word chocoholic, just don't. |
