Here are some words at present I could live without in the English language. My middle son has worn them out with his constant use.
Awesome
Stupid
Sweet
Spaz
Dude
Awkward
As in: "SWEET! That band is AWESOME! You're a SPAZ,DUDE, if you don't like them. It's so STUPID and AWKWARD that they aren't touring in Knoxville."
Am I raising a surfer or something? What's come over that child?

I so understand you desire to remove them.
This morning I was about to delete your blog from my favorites. I have had so much trouble when I go to your page. Do you have music loaded? I don't know what it is, but the last 6 times I've come to your page, my browser freezes, and I have to shut down everything. It is maddening. It has only happened on your blog so I am wondering if there is somehing like music loading that takes an incredibly long time that causes this problem. I love reading, but have avoided it because of this problem. I have no idea why this second try it didn't happen, but I was so glad I was able to comment. I did a search to find your profile to see if you had an email I could try, but didn't find anything. Anyway, I hope you can figure out the problem so I can keep reading. Has anyone else mentioned this?
I have the solution: groovy. 2008 is the year I'm bringin' back groovy. It's a great word, and appropriate response to nearly anything. How could such a great word have ever fallen out of favor? (Of course, according to my kids, the very fact that I'm saying it makes it the uncoolest word ever.) But I've recruited a surpising number of supporters. Help me bring back groovy, and maybe we can crowd out some of your "five".
Dear Truth,
Noone has mentioned this before. I don't have music. I am sorry it's so difficult. I don't even know what I could do to fix it, being slightly computer illiterate. If you ever want to email it's:
truevyne at aol dot com (no spaces, of course).
Kat,
Groovy it is!
Maybe its because our computer is soooo slow..its contagious ..
I forget ..did you mention the word "Sucks"? because it would be so awesomely sweet if he never said that one again.
B
Buck,
When you use the word "sucks", it so, like, awkward and stupid. I didn't want to put a cuss word on my blog.
hahahah! this all sounds familiar. sweet. sweet. sweet. sweet. sweet.
so, i started to say "sour". and opposites to whatever the adjective is for the day. big b and i end up finding ourselves laughing together.
i'm with kat - let's bring back "far out"!!! like totally. (do you remember "gag me with a spoon"? that one is a riot!)
