Don't say it in front of me

There are a few things I never want to hear again. Ever.

5.) Git 'er done.

I can't stand the phrase. Just because some dumb inbred hick said it, doesn't mean we all should. When I see a preview on TV for a Larry the Cable Guy routine, I change the channel, even if it isn't on yet. Saying the phrase causes your IQ to drop significantly.

4.) Moist.

Yuck. It sounds moldy, wet and stinky.

3.) On the real.

On the real? Yeah, for real.

I've only heard one person say this and it is only said to annoy me now because I said it bugs me. But what does it really mean? It must mean that whatever this person is telling me is reality. No doubt about it. I better believe what this person is telling me because not only are they telling me something serious, they took the time to make up a weird way of saying it.

2.) Off the hizzy.

Translation: Off the hook. This is usually used in the context of, "that party was off the hook." That means it was a good party. I prefer, "My, that was a joyous shin-dig, I'd better do that again." But I don't think it will catch on.

1.) Fo' Shizzle

Translation: For sure.

One friend turns to another, "Hey are you going to that off the hook party?" The other friend says, "Fo' shizzle." The next friend says, "On the real?" And the other friend says, "Yeah, Git 'er done!"

I'm not entirely negative, there are words and phrases it would be nice to hear more often or at all.

5.) Clamp it.

That's a good one. It's the nice way to tell your friends to shut up.

4.) Psych.

The first time I heard this I was in the second grade. Time to bring this one back. It is versatile. You can use this word when tricking your friends into almost giving you a handshake and making someone believe they won $1 million and then quickly take it back.

3.) Whoomp there it is.

Another classic. The musical group Tag Team struck gold when they released this phrase. It sort of means, you didn't think something was going to happen, but whoomp, there it is.

2.) You fill out those jeans very nicely.

Who doesn't want to hear that? Apparently certain parts of anatomy are in.

1.) You win.

I want to be told this while on the Price is Right.
