Banned Words of 2006

I’m rather disappointed to see that “truthiness” made the list. What with it being a new word and all. Still, most of the list I have to agree with.

I thought this one:
NOW PLAYING IN THEATERS
started being overused after that incident with PeeWee Herman. :eek:

So if they ban Chipotle what should I call smoked Jalapeños?
:rolleyes:

“The pepper so powerful that none dare speak it’s name.” A bit wordy, I’ll admit, but it has that certain advertising pizazz that’s so lacking these days.

Yeah, but then they would bust your chops for false advertising.

Dang. I was waiting to hear Melissa Block try to pronounce PWNED.
