I think it’s a bit different when the word has been totally abandoned for the previous use. I don’t know anyone who uses ‘lame’ or ‘dumb’ to refer to people with those disabilities. It’s practically an archaic meaning at this point. Gay is still most popular as a reference to sexuality.

Tom Segura nailed it.

if straight women got bleeped when they said “dyke” I’d have a way easier time dating 🫠

just run up to a hot gal with a fake microphone like “TRIVIA POP QUIZ WHAT’S THE WORD FOR ‘an embankment for holding back water’!?”

“[bleep]?”
“correct thank you ma’am have a nice day”

“dyke?”
“correct! question 2 are you single and/or dating?”

original meaning: “waaaah I got trapped into thinking a person of the sex I’m not attracted to is hot and now my genitalia is making me feel weird!”

new & improved meaning: this person dressed not as their assigned-birth-sex is so hot they could literally trap me Looney Tunes style by being distractingly attractive 😩

I may be happily ignorant, but what is the “f-word” and “t-word”?
