Words that should be banned from VST

I probably spend more time on here than I should, but as I read some of these posts, there are certain words that just simply shouldn't be used...Try working some of these into a normal conversation and see if you don't get a giggle.

broth - ever use that word in a conversation? I laugh every time I read "I had some warm broth." I cook for a living, and not once have I ever made broth. Soup, yep, stock yep, broth...uh..no..

Bougie - Didn't even know what this meant, and still don't. (Don't wanna know either) Word shouldn't be used in mixed company. When people start comparing their bougies, I think those posts should be restricted to the men's room forum.

Surgerversary - Again, WTF? Can't we use normal english? You had surgery on X date or a year ago I had surgery. I can't go down to the Hallmark store and get you a surgerversary card.

Onederland - Where is this place? Is this in Canada? Again, try using that in a normal conversation. I'm sure you'll get some confused looks.

Feel free to add your own favorite banned words....

(btw, for all you out there that had your sense of humor removed with your stomachs..this is a little Saturday night levity.)

Onederland? What, you don't know? It's just south of Yukon Cornelous' place on the north pole.

Onederland is just past the losers bench along your WLS journey to Goalweight ;)

Onederland is where you can bougie on your sugerversary & celebrate with some warm broth! Don't you know anything!! :-D

Takingcontrol that was a creative post!

This is a case of not understanding something, being afraid of said unknowns, and trying to make others not use them. All of those words are staples in either the surgery, or the celebration of our journey. Good luck.

Oh, & NUTs are OK....but I'd refrain from Pcp!! Just MO

btw...what is a NUT?
