re: #70 publicityStunted

It was a perfectly fine word before these people went and ruined it ;)

Hee.
It’s still a perfectly fine word.
But history has a way of giving words an additional emotional meaning, as well as its dictionary meaning, and we all are subject to it, and end up avoiding certain words.

Like “discrimination”. It’s perfectly fine to be discriminating and discriminate between, say, bad music and good music. But we avoid using that word, always.
