nouveau cuisine (as well as the fact)
"To be perfectly honest"
I like these words as they provide fodder for humour. How am I going to feel superior unless someone else uses daft words.:D
I have a soft spot for "epic". I feel I was in on that one at its miscarriage.
epiphany, when used in place of Eureka
'Worklessness'. Sadly it's probably going to be the word of 2011, but it grates on my nerves.
I agree with all of them (except using Google as a verb), especially "epic," "fail," and "I'm just sayin'," even though I say them all sometimes.
And, I know what you mean, Prendrelemick. I felt like I was in on "fail" and "epic," but now it's just overused fratboy talk.
"Monetized" -- Not on the current list, but maybe in previous years? Hearing "monetized" is like the proverbial fingernail scratch on a blackboard.

You're leaving?
"I've got nothing against 'goodbye' - I just wanted a way to say if friendlier, temporary"
Abyssinia?
I agree with Julio Appling on the "I'm just sayin'" phrase.
When people use the phrase, or its relations, "I don't mean to be rude but.." or "I don't want to cause a fuss but..."
Yes you do.
