butthurt
Oversensitive about criticism
Butthurt describes the state of being disproportionately offended or upset, especially over minor slights or criticism.
The term implies the wounded party is overreacting or being childish about it: He's still butthurt that nobody liked his idea.
Originally internet slang, now widespread in casual speech.
Can function as a noun: All this butthurt over a video game.
