The Phase that I thought was most unusual, was when standing in line to have dinner at a Country Club and someone said to me Full Time, I said excuse me twice because I didn’t understand what she meant. No, I don’t work full time. No wrong answer, do you live here full time. I usually start a conversation with the weather.

While we're at it can we ban:

"Hey batter, batter, swinnnggggg, batter." (baseball)
"Hit'em, get him" (football)
"Shhhhoooootttt!" (hockey/basketball)

I like it better during the pandemic when there was no fan noise #sarcasm

In reply to No problem: my coworker from 1994-1997 hated that expression. The day she told me, it stuck in my mind. I must have said no problem, followed by I'm sorry at least four times.
Agreed - awesome and now perfect have been most definitely overused.
A few other contenders: iconic, curated, absolutely, it is what it is.
In the wings: Not my circus, not my monkeys.
I've been keeping a list for many years. Cool goes in and out of fashion!

You don't hear "Ba Ba Booy" or "hit em with the hind" yelled anymore, just the "get in the hole".:ho:

However, I don't hear "you da man" as much these days. Maybe because they are "woke" people and believe the player is non-binary.:ohdear:

So true about it being yelled out when there's no possibility of it, or before the swing is even done. It always sounds like somebody 'thirsty' for getting heard on TV.

Like and Literally. . .

If you like, literally like this thread, you might want to Google “Lake Superior State University Banished Words List” where you will find LSSU’s lists archived all the way back to 1976. It can be fun, and a little nostalgic, to look through the old lists.
