I kind of feel like "privileged" is starting to get used to the point where it's losing all meaning.

I mean, I'm economically privileged to have a job that I really like and that pays for my (non-working) MP3 player and to buy milk (and to have a computer to post all this with). I'm health privileged to not have a headache all the time like some people I know and to be able to drink milk without lethal allergies. And I realise that and I'm grateful for it in my prayers, but I kind of don't want to turn my Man That Was a Bad Day rant into a discussion of the finer points of privilege, especially as the word is often associated with white privilege, which I have, but then we're back to your original rant.

TL;DR: I like petty better because it's less political.
