2009 Word of the Year Lists, Part II

Lake Superior State University has a different take on "Word of the Year" lists. Each year, students at LSSU review a list of words that has been nominated "for Mis-use, Over-use and General Uselessness" to form a "Banished Words List" for the future year.

Following are some of the entries from the 2010 Banished Words List:

SHOVEL-READY
CZAR
TWEET
STIMULUS
TOXIC ASSETS
BROMANCE
CHILLAXIN'
