I swear to god...

If I hear or see the term "clapback" one more time I am going to put myself in future history books.
What is wrong with "retort", "rejoinder" , or "smart assed snarky comeback"?
Jesus Christ. I can't believe I have to hate a term that sounds like a chronic std.
As we said in the day....fuck me runnin'!
That is all. I think I need my pill. I am Oooot!

I agree with your assessment of what it brings to mind.

Can you tell me? Because this is the first time I have heard or read the term "clapback" in my life. I am not joking.

Never heard that one.
Working in the lab at an Sexual Health Clinic, I called those who kept coming back with the same illness "Repeat Offenders".
