Survey Time!! Banned words of 2011?

So Lake Superior State released a list of "Banned Words of 2011":

- viral

- epic

- fail

- man up

- refudiate

- the American people

- I'm just sayin'

- Facebook/Google as verbs

I'm kinda screwed because I use "epic" in every other sentence. But what word or phrase are you completely sick of people using?

    I'm just sayin'. Literally. It's even worse when people use the word "literally" to refer to the most unliteral things; like when they say "I was so scared I literally jumped out of my skin".
