Getting sick of people saying "meta" all the time and not understanding the definition.

Baby bump :mad:
Nothing against babies or pregnancy, actually the opposite, I think those two words make pregnancy sound trivial and negative.

Heres a meta hack: I was going to be edgy and give an awesome sauce tip, but that would've been an issue that society would've felt was next level at the end of the day, which wouldn't have been as progressive as selfies on twitter of baby bumps, so I decided to just tell you guys that if you want something to be trending, share it with your friends!

Please tell me someone got all of that. lol :D

PS: I used all of your worn out words.

'Christian - ese'

this is a word that we hadn't heard until this site,
we find it de-meaning and not at all edifying....

Illuminati, back a few years ago it used to mean a specific thing... Or if you said it, someone knew exactly what you were meaning by it... Now a-days that word can mean anything from Govt. Conspiracy, Hollywood, to there being a magical unicorn in coca-cola bottles.

Also the word liberal pushes my buttons because merriam-webster defines it as "one who is open-minded or not strict in the observance of orthodox, traditional, or established forms or ways."

Community. Ugh, we're all part of a community now!

Literally. Always used incorrectly -- my head will literally explode next time I hear that word used incorrectly.

Uber. Although that word seems to have passed fashion at this point, I think. But it was uber overused a few years back.

Well lah dee dah dah day. You're just lucky I didn't include in my list all the profanity words. Then your bragging rights would've plummeted. Splash! Unless you would have dared to spell each one in your paragraph.

I am sick and tired of hearing the F word, especially from kids.

Yeah. Blegh. Can't handle that either. Especially if (for example, here in Belgium) they have no idea what they're saying. I mean, toddlers basically are using swear words too, like the F word and stuff, and they have NO idea whatsoever what they're saying. Ugh. Brats :p
