Overused Words I hate Part 2

Gaslighting.
Getting sick of this one; apparently we are all gaslighting each other these days.

It's not even a good metaphor since it really means nothing to anyone anymore. Other metaphors like "up the creek without a paddle" gives some kind of idea what it means.

Many people are consciously or subconsciously being gaslit or gaslightning others so it's not strange that it's often mentioned. But especially younger people have confused what it is. They think anyone being rude is gaslightning.
