Who else here is tired of the word "behaviors"?

I'm sick of the psychologists using the word. In fact, I challenge them to even give us a definition to it.

What's a "behavior" after all? Waking up in the morning? Making myself a cup of coffee? Stolling on the beach with my girlfriend? What, pray tell, is a "behavior"?

Go to the National Institute of Mental Health website and talk to these people and these overpaid Psychologists throw the word around like popcorn pooping in the microwave. Yet they will never tell us what they mean by the word "behavior[s]". I suspect it's because they don't even know what they mean when they use the word. "Do you engage in this "behavior?" "What "Behavior" has led to your dilemma?" "It's a known fact that these behaviors lead to the result..."

"Behaviors" is the favorite word of the Psychologists, yet it's also a word that they are the least apt to define.
