Andrew Broadfoot Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I don't have one however, my old roommate hated the word "Tallywacker". So, that's what I named my wireless router so he had to see it when he connected to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdude Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 "Amenities" and "beverage" instead of "drink". Of course, the former is mainly used by smarmy real estate agents, and the latter by flight attendants. Perhaps they think that "beverage" sounds more elegant.

RedScare Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 "Hip", "hipster", "foodie", and "chef driven restaurants". There are no more hipsters. There are only douchebags who imagine themselves as hip. Hip people set trends...generally without trying to. Douchebags frantically search for trends to emulate in a desperate attempt to appear hip.Oh, and then they tweet and blog about it.

Subdude Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 To me the most cringe-inducing of all, worse even than "iconic", is "veggie". I'll grant you that little children can probably get away with it, but no adult should ever talk that way. It's like calling cows "moo-moos".

No unfortunately it's still around. By now that blasted box should be pretty small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
