    If it originated from a reality television show, a pre-teen, avid video gamers, or is a portmanteau of two words that were created on a reality show, by a pre-teen, or by avid video gamers, then I hate it.

    If it uses numbers with similar shapes as letters, I hate it.

    If it is in 'text message lingo,' I hate it.

    If it is the word 'like,' I hate it.

    If it is the name of a band that is not a word recognized by the Oxford English Dictionary, circa 1980 [just to be safe], I hate it.

    If it is the word 'duh,' I hate it.

    If it is a word purposefully misspelled to take on another meaning, like 'dawg' or 'noob,' I hate it.

    If it is the words 'baby bump' used to describe a pregnant woman's uterus and the surrounding proximity, I hate it.

    If it is the word 'epic,' I hate it.

    If it is an acronym for a phrase that is just a borderline-retarded way of expressing carpe diem, I hate it.

    Text lingo...yes. I can't stand it.

    It's one thing to TYPE "OMG" but to actually use it in a sentence...just ridonkulous. <---that one, too. Yes, I've heard it a lot recently. I thought it had retired.

    Basically, I just wish "tubular" and "boss" or "radical" would come back. Those were the days. ;)

    Absolutely instead of sure, ok, or yes

    Awesome when describing things that are good, but not awesome.

    Any phrase where you are taking the Lord's name in vain. I don't know, it really gets to me.
