Banished words


A self-styled defender of the Queen's English, Lake Superior State College annually releases a list of words to be banished from the English language. Here's this year's list.

Unfortunately, checking their archived lists, it looks like most of the terms and words that have been banished have not actually vanished.

We'll have to see if this list goes viral. If the American people appreciate its wow factor, then soon everyone will man up and be googling it and Facebooking it to their BFFs. But if there is no a-ha moment, then it will be an epic fail, and mama grizzlies will refudiate it. I'm just sayin'.
