World-Class “It’s been used to

describe everything

from service to

eggs. (Honestly saw

that in a restaurant

in Florida!)”

To Perfection “It’s an excuse for a lack of imagination.

Still too often used to make a restaurant

or entree sound good

without wasting

adjectives.”

(Jay Clark)

Business to the

Next Level

“What? You mean

‘upstairs’?”

Killer “Killer should be killed. Let’s help it find its

way six feet under.”

(Melanie Kissell)

At the End of the Day

“Unless you end this

phrase with ‘it gets

dark’ or ‘I go to

sleep,’ I just want

to scream,

‘ULTIMATELY.

The word you’re

struggling to find is

ULTIMATELY.’”

(Ken Wilson)

Icon

“These days,

everyone is an

icon, and

everything is

iconic.”

Take This Offline “In other words, ‘I’m about to look stupid in front

of others’ or ‘This topic is an egregious waste of

everyone’s time.’” (Eric Eisenberg)

Solution

“Arrrrrgh!”

Awesome

“So many things

cannot be

awesome or they

wouldn’t be

awesome.”

(Meredith Blevins)

Out of Pocket

“When I hear, ‘out of

pocket,’ I think of a

hamster that’s gone

missing from the

pocket of a kid who

brought it to school.”
