“Sexy kinda.” It was originally from that 7 up commercial with the truck drivers. I started saying it, then \*\* everyone \*\* at my school started saying it. Now, I just want it to go away! ---

I’m going to get flamed for this, but “let’s roll”, needs to roll away. ---

bling bling. I’m not too hip, so for all I know it’s already on the way out. I hope. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Rico \* > \*\*My bad. \*\* I was mortified when this actually escaped my lips while speaking to a customer the other day (I do technical support). I misdirected her in our troubleshooting and said “Oh, sorry, my bad… can you go back to Start/Settings…” Ugh! ---

All of these sayings are new? I’ve been hearing most of them for a few years now. I agree with the “Let’s Roll”. ---

Over the past couple months, people at my school have been saying “Mawh!” in a tough, gritty tone, possibly to express feelings of…nevermind, I have no idea. It’s strictly an interjection–I’m yet to hear it used in a regular sentence, and it apparantly has no meaning. ---

I second “jump the shark.” Drives me nuts. Also, can’t stand the snotty “m’kay.” ---

“I’m all about the _\_.” “I’m all about the new Lord of the Rings movie.” “I’m all about getting a beer.” “I’m all about buying a new car.” Oh, how I hate that one. ---

My bad really bothers me. So does bling bling. “Action” also bothers me. As in “Look at the snow action.” ---

Another phrase that bothers me is “Goldurned” can’t people just grow up and say god damned? ---

Oh yes…and **what the peck**. First of all, _heck_, which is the word being replaced here, the word being made less offensive, isn’t even a frigging curseword. So let’s see…censoring something that’s perfectly okay? I’m going to black out any elbows that appear on television. ---

This one has been in use for years but it is increasingly being used in the media and even here at SDMB: **slippery slope**. ---

When did “bling bling” enter the vocabulary ? Sounds like the noise that slot machines make, to me. But I’ve never heard anyone say it. \*\*\*\*whoosh \*\*\*\* ! c’mon, let me in on the joke. ---
