Banned Words and People for 2019

banned words and people 2019

What a horrible year, right? Why can’t Trump just die so we can let the refugees have a nice soft bed and a hot meal?

Meanwhile, we’re not totally helpless. We can complain about words and word usage. We can vow not to use them in 2019, and like on Peewee’s Playhouse, we can scream really loud if someone says any of them.

new normal
wellness

folks (instead of “people”)
gender fluid
toxic masculinity
fake news
eatery
turmeric
manosphere
insta-worthy
gah
ally
self-care
helicopter parents
hook-up
best self

I can’t remember if I’ve done this before, but let’s also ban the people we don’t want to hear about (or from) in 2019, okay?

Beyonce
Halsey
Roger Stone
Ariana Grande
Kanye
Monica Lewinski
Lil [Anybody]
Cardi B and Offest
Tiger Woods
Clint Eastwood
Virgil Abloh
Childish Gambino
Mark Zuckerberg
Camila Cabello
Sheryl Sandberg
the Trivago guy
the My Pillow Guy

I know I’m forgetting about a million people and words.

Help me out.

  1. Madam Restora says:

    You missed Trump off that list. He should be at the top. In caps.

  2. Sister Wolf says:

    Connie – My pleasure!

    Madame Restora – Well, I did mention him in the beginning. He would be first on my “Needs to Die” list, followed closely by Mitch McConnell.

  3. Dj says:

    Folks
    Collusion
    Recuse
    Witch-hunt
    Ever, as in The best Xmas Ever!
    Cool, especially when one is over 25
    Base, as in trumps base
    Chyna
    Russyia, trump pronunciations
    Trumpian
    The Left
    Christian
    Thoughts and prayers
    Epic
    Hug

    All the conservative blockheads on CNN

  4. Jane says:

    Sorry, I meant Rain Dove

  5. Melissochka says:

    Influencer
    Doggo
    The feels

  6. Marla Griffith says:

    Butt hurt, I hate butt hurt.

  7. Beannie says:

    Amazing list. Could I please add Kombucha, Scooby and Keto?

  8. Sister Wolf says:

    Dj – Oh my god, “base”, I am so sick of the fucking “base” thank you! I see you are done with all the Trump-related words and so am I. I just want to hear, Guilty, motherfucker.

    Jane – Hahahahahahhaha

    Melissochka – I can’t believe I forgot “influencer!” This shows how senile I am. Does “doggo” just mean dog or what?

    Marla Griffith – Yes, that one is disturbing. But I used it recently to demean someone, thereby demeaning myself. Please forgive, it was just a one-off.

  9. Sister Wolf says:

    Beannie – Kombucha, ew, hate!!! What is Keto?? I stand ready to hate it.

  10. Bunny Beagle says:

    Thank you for including self-care. The absolute hatred I feel for that term is shocking.
    Just take a bath, do your nails, put on a mask on Sunday night and then get on with your life. No need to post your ‘ self care routine’, barf. I see these Instgram accounts dedicated to ‘self -care’ and I want to scream. Our grandmothers called it ‘personal hygiene’ and on occasion ‘ mom needs to shut the door and take a little nap’ . ‘Self care’ just sounds so navel gazey. See it make me nuts. You may have include this in past listed but ‘my journey’ and ‘ standing in my truth’ or just ‘ my truth’ can skedaddle too.
    .

  11. Beannie says:

    Keto is an abbreviated term for adopting the no carbohydrates style of eating so your liver is stressed into Keto-acidosis and you burn fat. Food wankerism.

  12. Suspended says:

    If we’re going to do ‘Kombucha’, we definitely need to add ‘Scoby’.

    People still haven’t moved on from Curated, Pop and Literally. When will this ever stop?

    Gwyneth Paltrow
    Twitter
    Wellness
    Yeezy
    Netflix
    Cardi B
    Minaj
    Woke
    Appropriated
    Brexit

    Not a very inspiring list, but annoying, none the less.

  13. Romeo says:

    Are we done with having to deal with “gluten free?” I know people with Crohn’s and other genuine illnesses have to worry about this but can everyone else stop it and move on to something new? I’ve recently heard that you can shut down your liver in order to burn off calories. Apparently this process is called keto and Kato Kalin will be publishing his version of this revolutionary lifestyle any day now. There will be videos featuring Billy Blanks’ version of the keto kraze as well.

  14. mark-E says:

    Since I now work outside of academia, people have warned me to stay in my own lane. What a fucking stupid, horrible term: staying in one’s own lane.

    I’m quitting if anyone ever says that to me again.

    Also, can we stop talking about sneakers?

  15. Dj says:

    Taking a knee, and any variation.

  16. mark-E says:

    Hack.
    Life hack.
    Here’s a life hack for you: fuck off and die.

  17. Melinda says:

    Witches of Instagram
    Elon and Grimes

    shit hits the fan
    shelf life (when talking about women)
    tech bro (lets come up with a new, sleazier term)
    bromance
    I’m okay (translation: no thank you)
    Starting a sentence with “So. . .” ( like you’re picking up where you left off)
    Yaasssssss!

  18. Debbie says:

    Lil [Anybody]
    MADE ME SPIT OUT MY COFFEE!! LOL!

  19. Bobo says:

    Hello Sister Wolf! Love your writing, love this blog.

    I nominate OVERWHELM as a noun as the absolute worst word of 2018. If people were saying that before this past year I didn’t hear it. I’ve been hearing it lately and I hate it.
