    I heard an 70 year old woman misuse 'Pop Yo Collar' like 'Kick Your Ass'.

    I've been hearing some people say "what happened?" in place of "what did you say?" There was this one guy who used the phrase all the time in his faux ghetto accent. I always wanted to yell, "nothing happened! Just pass me the damn stapler."

    "Real talk."

    The phrase doesn't bother me, but its misuse does. I've been seeing people tack it onto the end of texts and stuff, like it's the new "lol."

    And speaking of LOLZ, why do people put a LOL at end of everything. "Woke up late, still need to shower, LOL." Or, "Drank too much and now I'm uber hung over, LOL." None of that stuff is worth lolling to.

    I can't stand "real talk"...especially when "for real" still works better.

    Real talk!

    I don't mind it. Not many people in my circle use the term unless the situation absolutely demands it. And then, I only think of Kellz. But I do agree -- for common, everyday use "for real" is going to get the job done. Overuse of even the most on-point slang words will wear them out like a pair of jeans from Old Navy.

    I will say that a lot of energy and weather reporters have started to toss around the term "monster" in front of the just-started "hurricane season." Unfathomable man-made disaster notwithstanding, let's not put the cart before the horse, if you are picking up what I'm putting down.

    Oh yeah, can't stand when folks use the term "dro"...when they clearly don't even know what it means, i.e. not every weed even slightly better than bricked Mexican dirt weed is dro. Hell, not even every top flight weed is dro for that matter.

    Never liked a bong being called a "bubbler" either.

    Every time there is a bad piece of economic news, it is prefaced by "surprising" or "unexpectedly". "Housing starts took a surprising downturn," "unemployment numbers unexpectly jump." Its been like 18 months of recession, how can it still be a surprise?

    Really just means "unexpectedly missed expectations," i.e. Home starts were expected to rise 3 percent from last year's shit-tastic desert of a housing market but only rose 2.3 percent! Oh my god!

    Of course it means it missed expectations, that would pretty much be the definition of "surprising" or "unexpectedly" wouldn't it. The question is why, after 18 months, people haven't lowered their expectations?

    I am so sick of hearing hipsters describe everything as "amaaaaazing."

    "Oh my god...I had an amaaaaazing omelette at brunch yesterday."

    This has been near the top of my list for close to a decade, beginning with, "How was your semester abroad?"

    "Amaaaaazing, I got drunk and/or got ethnic."

    The point I was trying to make is that it's a pretty narrow range of estimates and the real data, for the most part, falls within that range. Not sure if the news channels do the best job is expressing that to the audience. It's not like the analyst community, or whoever is doing the estimating, is that far off.

    Cosign on "brilliant" -- that word means nothing if you have any hint on a British or similar accent.

    "Saving "finna" and ditching "dope?" That's intrepid, god!

    It appears to be fading already but the term "wet" for something good as in "Those shoes are hella wet." what a fuckin stupid slang term.
