DID YOU KNOW that the verb "skeet" dates back to the early 1800s? It was a dialect word that first meant "to move quickly," then "to squirt or eject fluid FROM THE MOUTH," you perv. We didn't make it a sex thing until the late 20th c. And now it's how you post here, whether you like the word or not!

Highly educated speakers can alienate people with language policing (which is different than change), but I think the vast majority of people aren't going around yelling at people who agree with them because they "chose the wrong word". The words become real or imagined symbols of alignment (2/2).
