I never again, want to hear the words Onesie, Selfie and ice bucket challenge in 2015. New year, new words please. What words, terms etc irk you? Maybe none of course. Maybe you're nice and easy going.

I love 'Cwches' which of course is actually Welsh and not new - just so wonderfully descriptive.

[PankySmooch]

I loved all the 'banter' puns....Banter Claus, Eric Bantona, Banton De Beke, Archbishop of Banterbury to name but a few

[kylesmum]

Peter Banterlow....pretty poor but it's a start :)

[kylesmum]

Bant and Dec :)

[PankySmooch]

[kylesmum]

Hahahaha....Brownie/Scout points there :)

[marval]

I hate it when people especially non-english folk start an answer with "for sure." I have never used that expression.

[kylesmum]

Good for you :)

[glenbar]

How I do agree with you and why is everything "amazing" drives me mad.

[janbee]

The overuse of the words amazing and awesome. That cheesecake is amazing/awesome. That goal was amazing/awesome. His/her boyfriend/girlfriend is amazing/awesome. Those boots are amazing/awesome.
The only time these words should ever be used are a) when viewing The Grand Canyon and b) when discovering a cure for all cancers. As it is, they are bandied about so much, they have become meaningless.

'Educated guess' ?????

Some really good answers here boys and girls. Thank you all so much for your contributions. All much appreciated.

We're certainly going to be well and truly fed up with the words Election, deficit, debt, Economy, previous government, immigration, EU, before too long., You'll be hearing all those trotted out ad nauseam up until May... and beyond, no doubt.
