Been there, done that, got the t-shirt.
by the way, has anyone heard ANY of the phrases that Dr. F. listed?
“No, you got the wrong number. This is 9-1-2.”
OK… Too much information!
Sure…although the correct quote is “…and two hard boiled eggs.”
HONK!
“and one duck egg.”

“Politically Correct.”
As an impressionable young man during the '70’s, when I first encountered the term/concept, I naively thought that it would be a good thing that people could be pressured by a new set of social mores to refer to their fellow humans with a bit more sensitivity. Unfortunately, the concept was allowed to morph into a caricature of itself, and later was co-opted by the forces of evil to serve as a general-purpose tool for avoiding any serious discussion that might lead people to conclude that the goals and tactics of the political right wing are not what America is really all about.
Of course truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense.
Mark Twain
In that vein:
‘So, I’m not Politically Correct!’
Invariably used to justify acting like a total ass.

LOL.
OMG.
Get a life/clue.
He/she/you/they just don’t get it.
You say “cheesy” like that’s a BAD thing.
“dr. fidelius, charlatan”: hmm, i think that means he could have been kidding.
“Chalupa” is Spanish for “canoe.”

What, me kidding? Never!
…well, hardly ever…

M.K., isn’t surreality in the eye of the beholder?
Sealemon, I’m tired of LOL too, mostly because I belong to an e-mail list with a member who uses it as quasi-punctuation. Too annoying for words.

“That is so gay/queer/homosexual!”
It’s become such a common phrase among teenage guys that they don’t seem to realize how derogatory it is, or how it promotes homophobia and whatnot. Hate it.

Canthearya: Yeah, I used to use the LOL acronym, as well as its cousins LMAO and ROFLMAO. I still use 'em in chat sometimes. I just get tired of seeing them used constantly.
I’d rather see a “Ha Ha” or two.
A phrase that really needs to go: “Can I be honest with you?”
You say “cheesy” like that’s a BAD thing.
“know what im sayin’?”
Except its more said like: “know’m’sayin’?”
grr.
Being the sensitive guy I am I prefer to use the term “heterosexually challenged”. As in: That shiny, silver shirt is heterosexually challanged.
I feel a murderous impulse toward any speaker who uses the word task as a verb, who thinks outside the box, who does lunch, who touches base, and above all uses get into bed with as a synonym for do business with.
