I never understood what “passive aggressive” means. Sounds like a catch-all phrase to me.

No, passive-aggressive does exist. ;-)
Example: My wife gets right in my face and screams at me! I do not respond or whisper a response. That drives her bonkers. ;-)
You can’t stab a watermelon in a passive-aggressive manner.
(Holding knife in a non-threatening manner) “Come on, watermelon, you know you want to sit on my knife, just roll on over here, it won’t hurt a bit”
“Hey honey, it would sure be nice if someone could pick up this watermelon and drop it on my knife here”
“Honey, I think the watermelon is trying something sneaky. Don’t you think we should do something with this knife I’m holding here”
