And then there are the mis-spelt thread titles. Three currently on the first two pages, not counting deliberate malapropisms and abbreviations.

"Potests in Egypt": What could that be about?
"treawall / climbing blog": What's a 'treawall'?
"Guidebook beta request Tuscon Area": Must be one of those new sport climbing areas.

prolly. It's f*#king probably...like its probably likely you don't know that "prolly" isn't a word. The phrase "you know?", a speech tic that many people seem to have, said perhaps a dozen times in a single sentence, prolly will get on my last nerve.

I am completely sick of hearing the admonition "take care of yourself." It has a certain "f**ck you, don't bother me" ring to it.

what can one possibly mean by that directive?

awesome

"Thank you." "No problem."

"Thank you." "No worries."

"Have a safe trip," (real meaning, "I hope your plane doesn't crash")

Fir instead of for or four.

Runnin, goin...

More and more people are dropping the "G".

Why do we pronounce been as ben instead of bean? The English pronounce been as bean but we Americans say ben.

It's all good

Usually means things are really f*(&d up somewhere along the chain but we're not allowed to acknowledge it.
Can you imagine the rejoinder:
Like H#ll it is!

I can't remember the last time I said I can't
