I am tired of hearing people say "slippery slope." It just sounds, oh, I don't know, lazy. Like they're just using a buzzword instead of thinking about what really needs to be said. Same with "notes." "Oh, the pasta had these wonderful woodsy notes to it." Very yuppy, very I'm-so-hip-I-know-the-buzzword-for-it. What words or phrases are on YOUR hit-list?

Thats so gay, I hate that one so much, very derogatory toward gay people. What is means is gay = stupid I have a friend who's Jewish and a lesbian. She was visiting a friend of hers, I won't mention where, but in that friend's community "That's so gay" was a very common phrase. So my friend talked to her friend about how offensive it was to her, and her friend talked to her family, and they agreed they'd try not to use that phrase around my friend. Later on, one of them used the phrase, "That's so Jewish" in exactly the same way, not knowing my friend was a Jew. Anyway, yes, the use of such words pejoratively is awful and I hate how commonplace and accepted the phrase, "that's so gay" has become.
