    I’m a bit concerned about shitshit being so popular, despite never hearing it. Am I out of touch, or are the children wrong?

      As an out of touch person, I have a possible explanation for this: have you ever said “shit” repeatedly as something goes wrong? I imagine some people would write a story where that happens and write it as “shitshitshit” and not “shit shit shit”. But outside of that situation I have never seen or heard “shitshit”.

    Some of the near zero but not zero combinations don’t make a lot of sense to not just be zero.

    Like dumbbag, scumhat, dipclown… I don’t know about you, but those ones colored as “thousands of uses” doesn’t seem right to me. Unless it was open so far as to search for those words used back to back and not specifically attached in any way as implied.

    But yeah, there are so many combinations that seem way too far into the orange to make sense to me. I’m curious to see the actual numbers the graph was built with.
