preventative - Just happy I never heard preventate.

Organic Cotton
Organic food of any type.
Hillary had a funny one the other day. A female racer intended to do a practice lap with some HC ad on the car. It had to be taken off because it would have been an illegal campaign contribution. (Any paint or decal on race cars has to be paid for.)
Later Hillary said something like "there are two gears, D for going forward and R for going backward."
The racer quietly pointed out to her that Indy Cars do not have a reverse gear.
She did not point out that all the turns at Indy are to the left.
Or that if you keep going left you end up back where you started.

"model"
Every thing is "modeled" these days. "Business model", "weather model", "model the behavior of... ", "sales model", "the bla bla model", "model the bla bla".
This goes along with all the stupid MBA speak people use (many of the words and phrases have already been covered) to sound smart or hip (apparently hep).
"splitter" is very near the top of my list, too.

I had to look up 'hella' in the urban dictionary since I've never heard anyone use it. Looking at the meaning I'll agree with the folks that are sick of it. It's "lame".

Conversate.
Usage: Hip hop approximation of "converse". Ex- "Me n my bichez conversatin' on the phone."
Just skip the rappin' and tattoo "I'm a f*#kin' idiot on your forehead".

I'm gonna have to jump on the "like" bandwagon too. And add "you know" for good measure.
"And then, like, you know, we like went to the 7-11 for a big gulp. You know?"
I'm supposed no one has mentioned 'nucular'(new-kew-ler) for nuclear. I don't really know how to spell it as it's not a word and consequently doesn't have a spelling.
And the next time I heard the word "stonker" (or see it on or in a magazine) someone's going to be eating a tire-iron sandwich.
