FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK, what the fuck, come the fuck on.

I can't remember the word. It's been bugging me for the last 30 minutes or so, I've searched google, I've tried remembering associations, but no, I just can't remember it. I remember what it LOOKS like, but not the word itself.

I guess I'll ask you niggers for help, because I have no other ideas at all at this point.

The word, to some extent, means "redundancy", "tautology". It's the word you say in a a shitty internet conversation in this context:
A: This internet conversation is shitty.
B: "Shitty internet conversation? That's a WORD_I_NEED.

Another example:
A: The Republicans are idiots.
B: You're speaking in WORDS_I_NEED.

FOR FUCK'S SAKE, help me out, it's a very simple, borderline overused word. I just got stuck.

I can't really think of any words that have the same meaning as redundant or tautological. Maybe dogma / rhetoric?

You retarded fuck. An oxymoron is a sentence or saying that contradicts itself. Jesus.
