I had a girlfriend who used this one almost daily. She really felt like it justified every stupid [censored] thing that happened. Sweet girl, but not much of a thinker.

I can't stand this one too. It has an ugly and disrespectful way of trivializing bad things, sometimes right to the face of the person the bad things are happening to.

"Gold". It's beyond overused, and, given the intended meaning, it's virtually always incorrect in its application.

This answer is an extreme cop out that gives way to the sort of self-pitying "oh well" sort of thinking. We are all outraged at this.

adjective: "crunk", "tight"

adverb: "totally"

verb: "fail"

tone: ironic (usually puncutated with a lot of LOLs, OMGs, or totally awesomes, but it's supposed to be ok since they're used in an ironic fasion)

noun: "blogosphere", "donk"

phrase/sentiment: "You have too much time on your hands." um, whatever. go back to watching friends.

On a side note I think the adjectivial (is that even a word?) use of the word 'ninja' (EG That's a f4ckin ninja line) is quite 'legit'.

"chillax", "ginormous", "Chrismukkah", and any other goddamn phony compound word these assholes can come up with.
