Not really sure what you're saying here. Did you mean to use the word "juvenile"?
- atchoo 4y ago"Febrile" is basically a UK Politics meme after being used by journos to describe the "atmosphere in Westminster" during each crisis of the week.
- akiselev 4y agoIt's also a word most people learned thanks to the fictional Malcolm Tucker character in The Thick of It (Season 3, episode 6 when he's yelling at Ben Swain)
- narcindin 4y agoProbably [facile](https://www.thefreedictionary.com/facile https://www.thefreedictionary.com/facile), here meaning superficial, reductive, or weak. Edit: Actually probably what the UK ppl are saying
