Via PigDogFecker (as we in Ireland would say), who cites d-squared, comes this lovely idea…
If I started using the term “anti-Semitic” as a general term of undifferentiated disapprobation like “lame” or “gay” (as in “god, those trainers are pretty anti-Semitic”, “The first few series of Friends were quite sharp and funny, but it got really lazy and anti-Semitic toward the end”, “I don’t know; there’s nothing specific about Shoreditch that I don’t like — it’s just a bit anti-Semitic”), how long do you think it would take to catch on? And what sort of reaction would I get in the meantime?
Well I like it.

I like it too. Another good one would be ‘Islamic’, used randomly. As in, ‘I love Mini-Cheddars, they’re like totally Islamic’ (you’re not going to believe I came up with that example off the top of my head, because I notice I have used the word in the sense of ‘Moor-ish’ — clearly nothing is random, it’s all Islamic).
