Hatewatch made it on nominations for most useful? I blame SAO.

SAO was the first thing that popped into my head after reading it .

Lot of Republican embarrassing sayings up there. Legitimate Rape, Self-Deportation, Marriage Equality and whatnot. They were on the wrong side of all of those.

I hate that "hashtag" thing. It's just used way too much.

Plus, it seems to have spawned a "whose random, banal thought will be on everyone's phone for about 5 minutes" trending thing. Or the other way around.

I dunno, whenever I hear some say a sentence, then try to encapsulate the whole thing by saying "#somethingorother", I just can't help but roll my eyes.

 

[Phat Michael]

I hate during "tweet wars" when people use hashtags for no reason.

@Yourmum - Nah you are an idiot #Burn #GotYou #Eatshit.

like that kinda stuff. its ridiculous.

There is a coffee shop in my city called "Yolo". I wish to disembowel myself, choke on my own gurgling matter, and experience my mind turning into the void black state of death. Or, alternatively, not go into that coffee shop.

If it were called #coffee I might have to go with my first choice, mind you.

I can honestly see the "#" prefix becoming the new "i" prefix.

It's really surprising that #Twitter caught on considering how #cluttered and #confusing their messaging #system is. @Baraka in the White House

feels: slangy shortening of “feelings” (20)​

Fuck this list. I love feels.

Parenthesis aren't the same at all. Hashtags are like a list of related mini-thoughts or concepts you tack on at the end of your main thought and furthermore they can literally be anything. Also they serve as a categorization device which was the original intent of them as they are tags. #awesome #21stcentury #englishftw #bestwordever #excited #parenthesessuck

(I'm exited for the awesome English word that reflects the 21st century. Oh and brackets can do the same thing just that you have to form actual sentences that don't leave the reader bewildered)


(tags are can be useful though, just maybe not in sentences and they should anyway link to the actual context of the tag, like a news article)



Btw. the German word of the year is "Rettungsroutine" (rescue routine, describes constantly applying rescue solutions for the EU economy)

Interestingly, YOLO won the kids version of this German voting...

 

[blame space]

if anyone ever says "that feel" to me I'm going to commit murder.

 

[zroid]

is "hashtag YOLO" the phrase of the year?

 

[Photosynthesis]

This makes me feel old. The fuck at some of those words (beardruff? really?).

 

[Count Dookkake]

Gogovich is the real word of the year.

 

[SystemShock2]

-(po)calypse, -(ma)geddon: hyperbolic combining forms for various catastrophes (115)

Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse Now was way ahead of the curve on this one.

The American Dialect Society demonstrating the differences between Americans and the English. They picked a twitter term, we picked an apt description of politics.

Fuck this list. I love feels.

So how is the a acronym YOLO used in a sentence or in a conversation? Never even heard of it until this thread.

"Man I drank too much last night. Oh well. YOLO!"

 

[BurnOutBrighter]

"Man I drank too much last night. Oh well. YOLO!"

Yeah it's more like an exclamation rather than something you use in a sentence.

 

[canoli2006]

"Man I drank too much last night. Oh well. YOLO!"

That's lame. Can I punch the person in the face after the exclamation?

 

[Photosynthesis]

My friends use it when we know we're making bad decisions and want to point it out.

"Let's eat two entire pies in a sitting. YOLO."

Nobody cared once that guy was caught fapping in the street.

I know that... Emotional response. Bro.

 

[Keru_Shiri]

I would hit anyone who used the word "phablet."

This.

Except all of our bad decisions are alcohol-related...
