I think, as mentioned, the term is "galling."

The article includes "-fhardening" as well. I agree that it's most likely to be -fhardened though.

That would be flaying. But in a medical context I think excoriating is skin removal... it's just not being used literally here.

The term you're looking for is "barratry".

I thought the usual term is "desugaring"

I think you meant "whetting". :)

Also, "felling" => "feeling".

Based on the picture, I'd guess "exhausting."

Some call that "gouging".

Not appropriate for every environment, but I've heard "refucktering" used to describe this.

That's called "vulching" among folks I know. (If you aren't familiar with it, the word refers to "circling like a vulture" -- at least in this case. A quick search turns up different uses of the word which are similar but not identical.)

I might describe it as a rapid descent into Flanderization.

rhizome | karma 18082 | avg karma 1.64 · | 2020-10-22 23:41:24+00:00

"Disgorgement" is the word I think you're looking for.

Yeah, a more apt term would be “flattening” or something.

"Nutpicking" is a very satisfying (and much easier to type) term for this phenomenon.

thedirt0115 | karma 348 | avg karma 2.17 · | 2018-11-08 18:44:05

I've heard that called "refucktoring" :)

gjvc | karma 13019 | avg karma 3.95 · | 2014-08-12 13:12:23

"frictions" is the best way to describe this.

> headfull?

Wonder if there is a good term for this. I have been jokingly referring to this as 'headed' and headless as 'beheaded'.

I think the technical term for this is "cherry-picking".

’orrifying.
