Montreal restaurant brawl caught on tape

Posted on January 5, 2012 | Comments Off

Revellers at a Chinese restaurant rang in the New Year with a booze-fuelled brawl that caused thousands of dollars in damage.

The brawl broke out on New Year’s Eve around 4 a.m. at the New Dynasty Restaurant in the downtown Chinatown district.

A Youtube video shows 50 black and Asian patrons smashing each other with chairs and beer bottles, leaving the restaurant’s carpets stained with blood. (NSFW language)

Most Hated Words of 2011

Posted on January 4, 2012 | 5 comments

Every year, Michigan’s Lake Superior State University asks people which words and phrases have been so overused that they should be essentially banished from the English language. The school just released their list for words that should be banned from use this year.

Here’s the list.

Amazing
Baby Bump
Shared Sacrifice
Occupy
Blowback
Man Cave
The New Normal
Pet Parent
Win the Future
Trickeration
Ginormous
Thank You in Advance

I would add “epic,” “fail,” and “throw under the bus.” How about you? What phrases and words do you hate?
