all of you go to hell

And you wonder why i am boggled at times

These are called contronyms! A word that is its own opposite.

Why the fuck do these exist

One theory is that the sarcastic use of the word became exceedingly prevalent and because another dictionary definition.

Are you telling me that we were such sarcastic shits it literally changed our language.

Literally is another example now.

So if you can’t see the images, here’s what each of the words and their descriptions are.

Chuffed: either “delighted; pleased; satisfied” or “annoyed; displeased, disgruntled”.
Egregious: either “outstandingly bad; shocking” or “remarkably good”.
Nonplussed: of a person, either “surprised and confused so much that they are unsure how to react” or “unperturbed”.
Perused: to look at or read something either “in an informal or relaxed way” or “in a very careful way”.
