Change.
Carbon footprint.
Bailout.
Main Street.
Man Made [issue - event] I can't think of the word, it replaces Terrorism.
I fight the Global War on Terrorism, but can't call it that.
GWOT (gee - wot) rolls off the tongue easier....

The following terms have jumped the shark:
- Jumped the Shark
- Learn me (thing)
- That'll buff right out
- Swine Flu
- Give something back
- Kayne West
- Glenn Beck
- anything on TV whatsoever having to do with NASCAR drivers that are not busy driving during the program

“Piece” as in, I’ll take care of the financial piece while you get the logistical piece squared away. The term gets upgraded from passé to infuriating if the individual holds out one of their hands in a cupping fashion as to symbolically hold the piece.

I'm surprised, no one has said this:
ANY word ending in ISTA.
This seems to have replaced words ending in AHOLIC.

Adding an i to your new product.. iPod, iPhone, iSnuggie

Dare I say.. Miata?
Possibly the E36 M3/Berkeley/etc. word replacement thing. You know how annoying that makes searching for E36, or Berkeley information on GRM?

starting in about 2001 everything was EXTREME...First bikes/skateboards/rollerblades, then it spread to other sports, then clothing, then eventually even your yogurt could be extreme.
In an Unprecedented Economic Downturn, Hawt Extreme yogurt on Mainstreet is an Epic Fail.
