piling on:

"fail" as a noun
"my bad"
"noone"
"awesome" ususally with 'dude' attached
"all good"
"all that"

I think the following are not so bad, even cool:

"Epic"
"Tight"

What do you call an Irishman with rabbits up his ass?

Warren.

...that Dreamhost is running a Twitter competition, a condition of which is that you must not use the word "fail" in any tweets. Apparently the word has become so ubiquitous in online discussions that the boys at Dreamhost have decided to crack down.

"THE DEATH OF FAIL!

I’m not exactly sure how it started … I guess probably failblog … but it has annoyed me TO NO END when those hip, snarky, oh-too-clever-to-come-up-with-their-own-schtick, kids on “teh internets” use “fail” to mean “failure”.

Just like lolcats, it was kind of clever when the whole thing started, but now, three years on, when there are over 100 tweets a minute with “fail” in them, IT IS JUST PLAIN PATHETIC.

It’s about time somebody put their foot down."

Pity they didn't nip "my bad" in the bud.

...listening to headbanging caterwauling on his *iPood*?

We irishmen don't fancy the baseball, laddie. It's fooball me boy, and we've nae hats.

Heh.
