One US university have mastered the fatuous art of flippant frivolity! Wait, what?
Following laughable tradition, Lake Superior State University in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan have listed ten words and phrases they deemed misused, overused and useless for 2022.
"Wait, what?" topped that list, a decision that officials defended by stating that the two four-letter words should "not go together under any circumstances".
The other nine offending phrases included "no worries", "new normal", "you're on mute", "asking for a friend", "supply chain", "at the end of the day", "that being said", "circle back", and "deep dive".
The university have published the list since 1976, citing the need to "uphold, protect and support excellence in language".
This is, plainly, an exercise in ludicrous goofiness.
