Nov 19, 2018 at 0:52 | comment | added | RJo | This answer accepted because "pejorative" is a negative connotation so could fit the "something or someone" contexts in the question, versus "metaphorical insult" which would be specifically directed at a person (see @Sven Yargs answer and comments below). For the curious, Merriam-Webster has an an example of "normal" being used as a pejorative in a sentence. See merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pejorative | |
