Today, while home from college for the weekend, my sister started whining about how I keep using "big fancy college words" and making her feel bad. My sister is 27 and teaches elementary school. The word I used was "ludicrous." FML

See, there you go again, using words like "elementary" and "weekend" and "school". Your sister is absolutely right. You really need to tone that shit down, professor.

My response would have been "it's ludicrous that you don't know what "ludicrous" means." If she can't figure it out from that I have no hope.

to be fair you don't hear many five year olds walking around saying ludicrous

You might if they, or their family, listen to the rapper's music.

“Ludicrous” is a slightly large middle-school word — a big, fancy college word is “strepsirrhinis.”

Another college word is "beer."

Apparently, you didn’t go to my high school. We learned “beer” and how to use that in a sentence. “Beer!”
