Why do so many people begin a post on this site with the word "so"? That adds nothing to the statement and sounds like a female character in a sitcom commercial.

It's important for them to make everyone aware that they don't care.

I've been amused for a number of years, by Lake Superior State University's annual list of banned words. It's released usually right at the end of each calendar year. This year's -

People just wanna be "cool".

The one that drives me bonkers is :Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?".
I HATE THAT with a passion!


(Disclaimer: Remember watching cartoons and there was a little angel on on shoulder and a little devil on the other? It's early and the coffee isn't ready so it's the "red guy" with the reply...)

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? (Or for the southernish population, Whuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut?) How could you say that?? It's used everywhere. I guess at some point it'll morph into "Huuuuuuuuuuuh?" It's also annoying to my ears. My granddaughter came home from daycare and used that (ahem) wonderful phrase and I looked at her and said "What in the world?" (figuring I could try to cut that #@&^ off at the pass) She gave me this blank stare then her eyes kinda lit up. So for the last month or so she has been using "What in de worrd?" in her best 3 year old voice. Way better.
