Snowed in yet? Cabin fever yet?

Here is a link to a "blog" (Hooray! Word of the Year!!) on Information Week. The discussion is of words that people want banned (or at least to go away quietly).

Pretty funny. This is part 2. I was unable to find part 1.

What words do you wish would disappear?

I'm very tired of the following:

security (overused and abused)
blog (such an ugly, ugly word)
liberal (has lost its definition)
