1.'good times'- bad grammar. for the love of god, quit stealing the heading from some myspace page and get some originality.
2. 'bat shit'- often used to describe someone/thing that is crazy. excuse me, bat shit, also known as guano, is very useful. call me bat shit and i might take it as a compliment.
3. 'my bad'- bad grammar strikes again. yes, you are bad. and you're even worse for using such a poo-poo sandwich of a phrase to convey an apology. if you want to say 'i'm sorry' , say it. 'my bad' just doesn't cut it. i'll be even angrier if you use this phrase on me.
4. 'what's crackin'/poppin'/hangin'?'- i'm sorry, but my daily affairs do not crack, pop, or hang for any reason at all. i'll settle with 'what's going on?'
5. 'OMG'- just say it, damnit. I have enough acronyms making thier way into my vocabulary and I dont need another. Whenever I hear this phrase, all i can imagine is a twelve year old myspace whore bitching about not getting her period. And i like it when folks use the lord's name in vain.
6. 'that's a bummer'- yes, it certainly is. thanks for stating the obvious. But what exactly is a bummer?
7. 'douchebag'- okay, that's just plain revolting. stop putting dirty pictures in my head.
8. 'Laugh out loud/LOL' -instant message phrases should NEVER, ever, be used in any conversation outside of the computer realm. Not even the acronyms. Not only is it unoriginal, its also way too nerdy for any respectable conversation.
9. 'Like fire'- you can pretty much apply this phrase to anything. However, its almost never used to form a coherent simile. 'You're bright like a fire' is a good way to use this phrase, 'That's awesome, like fire it is!' is not.
10. 'That's hot'- not only has this phrase been used relentlessly like a $5 crack whore, it conjures up the image of Paris Hilton. When I think of Paris Hilton, I want to kill myself and anyone who uses this phrase I immediatly compare to this disgusting, useless piece of shit. Spare your dignity and use another phrase.
This is worse than when some guy kept going off over and over in a thread because some said they had a good trip on weed.

1. Can be grammatically correct, if you talk about a few different times, then it's grammatically incorrect to refer to them as "good time"
2. Bat shit or ape shit as most people around here say. Big deal, some people say "holy cow" but those don't even exist.
3. "My bad" Sometimes you want to point out something you did without apologizing. I'm not gonna apologize for some spilled grape drink on MY counter.
4. what's crackin or poppin: I don't use these, but can you honestly say you've never asked someone what was up? it's the same thing.
5. and 8. OMG ROFL. Some people ARE nerds and aren't bothered by it, and use these acronyms in daily life (or even try to say the acronym as a word) to let you know what kind of person they are.
6. Someone got that already
7. Douchebag is funny. Get over it.
9. Like fire: who cares? is there slang that you use.. any at all? ever?
10. That's hot: well, it could be, it doesn't conjure up images of Paris Hilton for me tho, because I don't watch entertainment tonight everyday and read the enquirer.
