Re: LSSU releases its 2009 list of words and phrases to be banished
I liked the carbon footprint (atoms with their shoes off), nominated 5 times (seriously, who gives a **** if you were nominated 5 times, you didn't win jack ****.), and the <3 (less than 3?). The commentary on those were pretty funny.
And why isn't epic on there? I'm sick of that word. |

Why isn't "epic, rofl, omgwtflolbbq, gtfo, PWNED, OWNED", on there, and yet they have <3? They're the most annoying acronyms and internet phrases on the face of the planet. And now people start to say them in real life, too. "oh em gee that gave me lols"
Has to be a bunch of old farts writing this, they never have a clue..

I would add "Now, More than Ever" and "Joe the Plumber" to the banished list.

Re: LSSU releases its 2009 list of words and phrases to be banished
To be honest I find this list incredibly pompous. Who the hell can go around thinking they are important enough to dictate what I should and shouldn't say? This list changes no one's opinions. No one is going to read this and see <3, and say "Oh that little heart is out, psh it's so last year anyway." I mean come the **** on if someone wants to say a word/phrase let them say it.
Sure over the history slang has "evolved" back 30 years ago everyone was calling things groovy or far out. As opposed to today's kids saying epic or something along those lines. New slang terms seem to work their way out every day. Some committee at a university I'm pretty sure I know absolutely nothing about says a phrase is or should be done is just ridiculous. Stuff like this pisses me off because every single person that put in one of those retarded little comments about the words and phrases to be "banished" probably values their own opinions so high that they wouldn't even listen to you if you tried to reason that what they are doing is absolutely absurd.

My second question is, how do you banish a word? Do they have a secret police force that hunts down and destroys all records of said word?

This wouldn't banish words off the face of the planet, but it should teach people a lesson. Just substitute people eating with people saying a word or phrase.

I never heard of said "MONKEY"
I hear "(Descriptive term) as (insert random swear word or obsenity here)" everywhere, that should be banished. example: "DUDE! like that was gay as balls" My school is full of this. |

i agree with almost all the words they chose. i am so sick of hearing them. same with the internet slang. i use it occasionally, but its stupid to actually hear someone say it aloud.
