Talked about this list with my wife yesterday (Lots of traffic on I-75 between Chattanooga and Gainesville), and I never realized how much "baby bump" irked her (having never heard the term myself). The term "occupy" has been worn down to a nub, admittedly. Can't say the word "mancave" bugs me, though.

Can we kill phrases like "follow us on Facebook/Twitter" and "student of the game",  while we're at it?

Surprised "I-366" didn't make the list. </dead horse>

Given the value of social media in marketing, the former can't happen.
