SAULT STE. MARIE, MI-- Like grains of sand falling through an hourglass, so are the days where you can submit a word to be banished slipping past.
Every new year since 1976 Lake Superior State University has issued an annual “List of Words Banished from the Queen’s English for Mis-Use, Over-Use, or General Uselessness.” Nominations are gathered throughout the year and the list is released December 31.
Previous banishments include My Bad, Free Gift, Hack, and Polar Vortex.
