      why do people put the extra X in there? indolence?

      My best guess is it’s become a sort of linguistic meme, poking fun at incels who’d ramble on about things like “looks-maxxing”.

      Or maybe it’s a combo of that and “min-maxing” from gaming communities. The extra X makes it more maximum. LOL

      Taxing, faxing, relaxing…
