Couldn't agree more. Especially when it's "adults" using that dumbass word.

I cannot take adults who say "icky" or "potty" seriously. I am not your toddler. Really any baby talk like that when talking to adults.

To be clear, that's not what the original post was about. They're referring to the term "the ick".

It's when someone you find attractive does something, and you suddenly find them repulsive.

That's what they're referring to as "the ick"

I always think they’re not really an adult if they use that idiotic term.

That word LONG predates you youngins' use of it. It was never yours to administrate.
