Michigan university releases list of words that should be banned

Posted: Updated:
ATLANTA -

It's time to double-down and take some terms off your bucket list.
    
Those sayings all made the 38th annual list of words that should be banned from the English language. Other phrases included kick the can down the road, fiscal cliff, trending, and boneless wings.
    
The tongue-in-cheek list comes from Michigan's Lake Superior State University.

Can you think of any terms or phrases you'd like to see banned from the English language? Post your comments on our FOX 5 Atlanta Facebook page, or tweet us @GoodDayAtlanta
