Butthurt
Butthurt is an emotional state consisting of frustration, angst and a general attitude of "IT'S NOT FAIR!". As you may have guessed, nobody wants to be butthurt, to the extent that the word is itself an insult, meant to indicate that one's opponent in a debate is hysterical or immature.
Signs of people who are or are soon going to be butthurt are:
- A DM whose Railroading has gone wrong.
- Players receiving a "Rocks fall & everyone dies!!!1!!one!"
- A DM whose players "don't understand" their "story".
- Anyone whose character got caught in a trap that is save-vs-death.
- A Chaotic Stupid character called out on their "LOL I stab paladin so randum" bullshit.
- A paladin who's about to fall because of a "baby or the mother?" moral dilemma.
- A Tau army on an urban/space-hulk battlefield. Double points if fighting Tyranids or Orks.
- Furries. "STOP THE FURSECUTION!"
- People who hate the latest edition of any rules system.

- changing a pen-and-paper game to be more like a video game.

- People who repeatedly embarrass themselves by not knowing the meanings of the words they are using.

Trivia
- An even earlier example of butthurt occurred during the American Civil War when Hard-drinkin' Grant and Pimphand Sherman handed the South can after can of assrape, resulting in what "South Will Rise Again" bitches call Lost Cause--which is actually just butthurt that keeps on hurting even to this day.
- Earlier still would be the butthurt experienced by the Israelite people when they complained to Moses about wandering through the desert and dying, as opposed to being bitch-assed slaves/whipping boys in Egypt and dying.
- This butthurt became one of the earliest examples of the "Jews love to complain" stereotype: "I don't think he knows where he's going. No, don't shush me, Sheila, I'm saying it. YOU'RE LOST, MOSES! There, I said it! I'm stopping right here and opening a deli!"
- The dinosaurs' collective opinion of meteors. Whiny reptiles.
