2009 Word of the Year
the word of the year goes to "unfriend." as in to take people off your friend list in sites such as facebook, myspace, etc. (btw, remember friendster? i feel like everything is just another version of friendster) i guess it is fitting because it's all the rage now with those sites.
-some other words that made it:
-intexticated (texting while driving)
-sexting (sending sexually explicit SMS or pics using cell)
-freemium (business model in which some basic services are provided for free)
-funemployed (referring to people taking advantage of newly unemployed status to have fun or pursue other interests)
-choice mom (person who chooses to be a single mother) - i call this the fuglies...
-deleb (dead celebrity) - many of those this year
-tramp stamp (referring to tattoo on lower back, usually on a woman) - personal fav
