Word makes me want to yak–I’m talking technicolor yawn here. No, really, I’m down. But I’m having hashbrowns, so pass the ranch.

Phew. I was worried some of my slang would be on this list, but I’m think I’m in the clear.
I do want pancakes now though.

@Courtney, I say word like it ain’t never goin’ out of style, so I feel ya sista.

Sidenote: I am having a lot of fun replying to these comments with the most rockin’ cheddar slang I can think of.

I say as if like every day and I’m only a few years out of high school =P But I also say rad and peace out, so I’m pretty lame.

My teenage daughters have also informed me that “Represent” is right up there with “word.”

Apparently “shyeah” has been replaced with “pshkah.” I’ll have to ask them “what the crow” that means.

Thanks for the chuckle!
