Fucking hell, I hate this word with a passion and how it's used as a cheap insult, but really "cuck" is the only thing that springs to mind. Someone takes a dump all over you but not even that makes you less eager to say panegyrics about them? Very strange.


Maybe he just doesn't care that much. Inconvenienced, evidently, but to stake a personal dislike towards a human being for this seems unwarranted.


Did you even read the article? In his own tweet he says he's "super pissed", how could you possibly conclude that "maybe he doesn't care that much"?


Because I can differentiate between being upset over something, especially something that is a minor inconvenience relative to other things that can occur in a man's life, but not being upset to the extent where I dislike those responsible for it.

I mean seriously, stop for a moment and think if "I don't dislike the guy who runs the company that inconvenienced me and I think things may turn out okay" warrants the association that the person who feels like this would be sexually gratified by his wife sleeping with another man.


Just admit that you didn't read the linked article.


Please, no. “Cuckold” already has a meaning and it’s not this.

I know it makes me sound like a crotchety old man to complain about the changing nature of language but I’m not going to start helping it along.


Cuck is a good word for this case, but perhaps “addict” is better?
