If you think fandom is comparable to an office, you might not be as mature as you think you are. What's more, a lot of fandom/internet words sound juvenile or cutesy. Feel(s), doggo, fave, sexytimes, nonny, plotbunny. Hell, as stated upthread, there are people who think squick sounds twee and childish. There’s no winning.

Squick does sound twee and childish.

What's this about there not being any winning? Sure there is. The way to win is not use juvenile words and phrases.

Look, even you yourself acknowledge the way these terms sound. If people want to use them, fine, but they shouldn't act offended when others think they come across as immature, particularly since that only adds to the initial impression.

DO give a non-twee alternative term for squick then, come on, don't be coy.
(Also, way to go using twee as if that isn't just as bad lol.)

"Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." - C.S.Lewis
