Banned Words of 2008

Jennifer McClelland | RSS | 0 Comments

Lake Superior State University has released its “banned words” list for 2008. This year’s list includes 15 entries and they are:

green (as in “going green”)
carbon footprint or carbon offsetting
maverick (I suppose this means Sarah Palin impersonations will have to cease?)
first dude
bailout (I’m sure you’ll all still hear this one plenty of times on this blog)
Wall Street/Main Street
monkey (really??)
<3
icon or iconic
game changer
staycation
desperate search
not so much
winner of five nominations
it’s that time of year again

There were around 5,000 nominations this year, too bad “Joe the Plumber” didn’t make the list.
