Polar vortex was my pet peeve last year. For almost 70 years, all I heard was “dip in the jet stream”. Who knew??

[martin_fierro]

BAE caught me slippin'.

[Smokin' Joe]

SWAG=Scientific Wild-Assed Guessing. Has for years.

[rockrr]

How charming, a new crop of little fascists.

[MeshugeMikey]

how about MACACA?

[albie]

Words that should be banished...Pelosi, Reid, Schumer, Obama, Boehner, Clinton, Warren...

[Yardstick]

What?

I’ve just started using “foodie” as I’ve begun making a serious effort to improve my cooking skills and now it’s banned?

I reject this censorship.

[Lazamataz]

Curiously, My bae — who is a foodie — hacked the skill-set required to take a SWAG at the polar vortex.

[UCANSEE2]

I want to ban anyone who wants to ban anything.

[lee martell]

This from the demographic that doesn’t know to from too.

[Eddie01]

Also on the ban list: conservative, christian, truth and God.

[yldstrk]

“Bae” is more acceptable to me than “baby”, which I never understood. Why call a grown man “baby”?

[windcliff]

No swag for you.

[onedoug]

“Swag” is the uniform stuff one gets playing high school sports. I’m in my fourth coaching season, and I’ve got lots of swag!

[Cvengr]

I nominate “BLUF”.

[TruthWillWin]

Add “win win” and “at the end of the day” to the banned list.

[dainbramaged]

They could bury the word “dude” for all time.

[Jamestown1630]

Does anyone know when/how the term, “I know, right?” originated?

It’s creepy how the first couple of times you hear something like that it takes you back; and then, insidiously, it becomes “normal”...

[Georgia Girl 2]

I hate Polar Vortex. Bring back Artic Express! :-)

[seowulf]
