Words/Phrases I Will No Longer Say

totally
you should totally ___________________  
sumpin' sumpin'
so-and-so loves him some ____________ 
my bad
awesome
cool/that's so cool
no way (but "NOOO" in mock or real horror is still ok)
get OUT! (but "shut the front door!" is ok)
you can't be serious/you've gotta be kidding/for real? (but "for realz" is ok, though i think it's got a fairly imminent expiration date)



i encourage you all to join me in purging your daily vocabulary of words/phrases you've used since junior high. it's time to freshen up our convos. i wanna hear more "shut the front door!" when i walk the streets. exception: i can still use words from this list in my writing if i can make it sound ironic.
