I've been hearing it for years. I use it occasionally at work because it is often very fitting for our environment. I'm also older than some of the folks I work with and they think it is funny and most haven't heard it until I corrupted them.

No one I know IRL uses this word. I think it's actually a pretty stupid term.

I've only ever seen it on the internet, usually on snarky blogs or message board posts. I think it's vulgar because, well, I'm finding I can't quite type out what I always thought it was referring to. Maybe if I said the prisoner who dropped the soap was butthurt. Apparently I went too far with my assumption, though. I've heard the term chapped since I was a kid, as in "that really chaps my a$$." To me, that just meant irritation similar to having a chafed rear. I took butthurt to mean more than just chafing, but now it makes sense that I was wrong about that. Now I feel simultaneously like a prude and a horribly inappropriate person. Umm. Well, slide over on the bench and make room for me because that's the image I get too. Not the dry skin of butt cheeks.
I've only ever heard it online.

I hate it, I think it's stupid and I would never use it. I see it mostly here, but a few times I have on facebook. No one I know IRL says it. If they did, I'd roll my eyes and think they were either 10, or a very annoying adult who I needed to get far away from.

Stabby? Haven't heard it before but love it! And I'm one that avoids Fab, Prezzie and doesn't even say MickeyD or Tarje Tarjey for Target makes me very stabby. Like want to punch in the face stabby. And I don't know why. Maybe because it sounds like the person is trying to be prestigious or something. I tend to say MacDoh rather than MickeyDs but that's because one of my gym teachers who was a Frenchman always said that, so it became the go to term in my circle of friends. You have to say it with a Quebecois accent though or it just sounds stupid. I call it Rotton Ronnie's.

To me it is no different than saying "pearl clutcher" or "getting your panties in a bunch". We all have stupid sayings we use, and I don't judge anyone for whatever terms they choose to use

It's been around forever. Probably since the 80's/90's. I used it then and I still use it today.

I'm not offended by things that I find stupid. I just find them stupid. However, after reading some of the comments, I see that someone I respect very much and think is a very cool person uses it often. LOVE her...still think it's stupid. I guess I better get away from her fast though, per my previous comment.

That's because you are so obviously a much better person than I am!
I have no issue with the other saying you mentioned.

I think the term is funny. It's not all that common where I live but a friend of DH's says it so now he says it. I always wonder what qualifies something for "butthurt" status.

I am just a cranky old lady, but I do not like that phrase. I think everyone above has summed up the meaning nicely, but I think there are other, less vulgar ways of expressing the same idea. I've never heard it used in real life and I don't want to. I hope my students don't ever start using it in the classroom either. I will be giving them a quick lesson on synonyms if they do. I prefer to be vexed when things don't go my way. Personally, I never considered butthurt a vulgarity. And of all the things teenagers say, this isn't even on my radar as a hill I'd die on. (and as a parent, I'd probably have a few words for you if you wasted class time trying to instill your morality or the language YOU personally deem appropriate on your students...some things just aren't up to you)

I am sure I will not be popular here and that's okay. I know people are just expressing their opinions but I do feel a bit chastised for expressing my thoughts. There is a standard of civility I expect of my students and I think that absolutely is my responsibility as a teacher to establish those standards. It is part of my job. I don't believe that time spent setting expectations for classroom behavior (including appropriate language) is "wasted". It is critical. As I said, I am a cranky (but kindly) old lady. I am also a highly effective teacher based on annual ratings and student performance. I don't approve of my students telling each other to shut up, talk about farting and poop, or use put downs. We speak to each other with respect. If a parent finds that controlling or stupid then they may take it up with the principal and I will gladly listen with an open mind. I suppose these may seem like my own subjective standards, but I do think that many years of experience and professional training give me some insight on appropriate standards to set for ten and eleven year old children in a school environment. These standards are not based on arbitrary decisions or pet peeves on my part. Once I set the expectations my students don't use these terms because they respect me, each other and the learning environment we create together. I'd never assign a student negative consequences for saying butthurt but I do gently remind them that there are other, more appropriate words to use to express the same idea. I understand and accept that people may not agree with me in this matter but I don't appreciate the implication that I am wasting student learning time or imposing my own petty standards.

I've never heard the term. What's the context? Not used around here--at least not by anyone I know in 3D or online. ....I guess that will change since I just heard it here for the first time.

I live in Southern Alberta and hear it quite regularly. We even had some family drama over the weekend where my MIL said someone was acting all butthurt for no good reason.

Bravo, Miss Jules, bravo! I'll sit right next to you on that unpopular bench. We should have more teachers like you setting an example for our young ones when it comes to respect. For themselves and others. Again, bravo!
