Words I'll Never Say Again. . .

Amy Fagan

Thanks to both the V.P. and Presidential debates and a relentless onslaught of migranes, I am removing the following words from my vocabulary:

Maverick

“Betcha”

(winking)

Any form of the name “JOE” – Joe Six-Pack (Joe Beergut?), Joe Plumber, Joe Camel, Joe Schmoe. . .Schmoe. . .If I meet someone named Joe, I shall call him “Mister Smith.”

Main Street

Wall Street

Easy Street

 Fired up!

References degrading to pigs: Lipstick-on-a-pig, tits-on-a-boar-hog, silk-purse-out-of-a-sow’s-ear, pearls-before-swine. . .it’s done.

Politics of Fear

BINGO

(winking)

Gotcha – in reference to journalism. . .or anything for that matter.

Referring to mothers as “Ball-Moms” of any kind. HOCKEY MOM, SOCCER MOM, FOOSEBALL MOM, PINNOCHLE MOM. . .it’s done. Mothers in this country should be defined by more than what sports their kids play. . .

STRAIGHT TALK

(Please note that these are random phrases that popped into my head and have no bearing on any one candidate in particular. . .I’m just putting these words into my lock box, along with “fuzzy math” and “the internets.)
