I'm ready to play "Ban the Word" or "Ban the Phrase". The object of the game is to identify words, terms, or phrases that have been overused to the point of obnoxiousness in recent days or weeks.




OK....it's Friday. I'm going to a movie, but for those of you who prefer to party, here are a few words to ban from your vocabulary if you plan to get soused (& NOT drive, off course!!)

These are impossible to say when you're inebriated:
Indubitably
Innovative
Preliminary
Proliferation
Cinnamon
Specificity
British Constitution
Passive-aggressive disorder
Loquacious Transubstantiate
Nope, no more booze for me
Sorry, but you're not really m type.
Good evening officer, isn't it lovely out tonight.
Oh, I just couldn't. No one want to hear me sing....


P.S....Dawnie.....shut-up....

"Loquacious Transubstantiate"

I don't think I can say that sober!

YES! I CARE! But I only care about the fashion commentary, which apparently they're cutting this year. Really disappointing. I like all the pre-show shows, on E! etc, with catty remarks about the clothing and hair and jewelry. After that's all over, I go to bed.

Wow - who knew that Friday Frivolity could cover such a wide array of subjects - looking at my monitor at all these frivolity posts, along with the real ones, almost makes the brain dizzy enough to say TGIASSICTTCO! (any guesses?) I will decode it at 4:00 CST.

So, if humor (or a joke) is posted to a non-humor thread, what happens?

OK guys, I believe the title to this thread is "FRIVOLITY". Political discussions should be under a different header! ....



If there is anything more frivolous than party politics I've yet to discover it!

Like 90% of this country. Most people pronounce it that way. It's easier to say.

I am actually looking forward to the Oscars, I just hope they don't turn it into a political forum, ( the winners I mean).

Ok I'm a little behind, but here goes:

I second the nomination about Reality TV

It's New-clear how hard is that. I think it's the "u" that throw them off

TGIASSICTTCO - Thank God I Am Still Sobber .... I didn't get any farther than that because I couldn't think of a good reason...

AS for the BAN, how about - "I like really.... ya know" (I thought this had gone out with the 90s but I received an Incident Report last week filled out like this)

I CARE! It's the night when dreams come true. Spoken by a mom who's son is always one rent check away from living in his car while he follows this dream. This is the Oscars, this is Hollywood...I hope the show goes on and stays glamorous and glitzy and does not turn into a political forum.

Perhaps the word Frivolity needs to be explained to us everyday posters, including me, as I thought the meaning was:

Quote:


Fri*vol"i*ty\, n.; pl. Frivolities. [Cg. F. frivolit['e]. See Frivolous.] The condition or quality of being frivolous; also, acts or habits of trifling; unbecoming levity of disposition.


n 1: the trait of being frivolous; not serious or sensible [syn: frivolousness] [ant: seriousness] 2: something of little value or significance [syn: bagatelle, fluff, frippery] 3: acting like a clown or buffoon [syn: buffoonery, clowning, harlequinade, prank]




The deleted quote was surely buffonish, correct?

Perhaps I should apologize for my, and posting, buffoonery of all things - a frivolity thread!
