    Phenomenal (lmao) & Hubby Hubby Hubby (lmao)
    Every time I hear "phenomenal" I keep thinking of that sketch from The Muppets...

    Phenomenal...doo doooo doo-doo-doo....
    Phenomenal...doo doo-doo doo...
    Phenomenal...doo doooo doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo doo-doo-doo doodoodoodoodoo doo doo doo-doo doo


    I always do that. Always. With phenomenon, too.


    Now I shall have that wretched tune stuck in my brain, rattling around endlessly.

    I am guilty of using the word "awesome" far too often.

    "Hubby"

    I despise that word...I have a HUSBAND...

    "Deets"

    If I wanted "deets" I would go to the store and purchase a few bottles of OFF! bug repellant with deet. If I want DETAILS I will specifically ask you to tell me details...

    Not even sure why those 2 words bother me, but they do!

    HATE

    Such a negative word - everytime someone starts a post with "I hate......" cardio, eggs, vegetables, exercise........ I just cringe

    Time to start using positive affirmations rather than the H word - you might get much better results that way.....

    Well we are 3 hours 15 minutes away from 2012 here in New Zealand - so here is to a fabulous 2012 for you all!

    In my house I made the rule that you were not allowed to say Hate as it is a very harsh like there is no changing your mind but we can say dislike which to us means there is room for improvement.. I may dis like doing jumping jacks but i do them and they have grown on me.... If i hated them then that is it.. there is not going forward .... it also has the word like in it which helps my theory...:)

    Haha...I see some of my own bromides here. I'd like to hear words which you LIKE to see in response to your statuses. Guessing it may be a shorter list.

    Totes. That one just pisses me off.
    On the same topic, why have we all given up on the English language? Is it *THAT* much more difficult to eschew text-speak and just use real words and realistic, if not proper grammar?

    Kthxbye!

    Freedom of speech homie/homegirl

    I appreciate the support no matter the source or their means.

    I understand not everyone has the gift of gab, no need to forsake the linguistically challenged.

    I say not ban any words, and un ban prior words.

    On the grounds that language is what seperates use from animals, this stuff is sacred.


    Maybe im just a weirdo, i dunno.
