Joyless Old Van Yells At Cloud:

Can we please go back to "stan" and stop using "simp" b/c that word literally feels like nails on a chalkboard.

It feels like having my mouth stuffed with chalk.

I hate it. Make it stop

It brings to my mind the image of a chimp or an imp or essentially a "primitive" or savage animal and just has that mouthfeel of being a degrading word.

I guess I haven't seen them used similarly, though a lot of the usage of the word 'simp' I've seen is from trans men using it ironically.
