I really like the word "brouhaha," and use it a lot. I picked it up years ago when I used to follow hockey religiously. There are many brouhahas in your typical NHL game.

One of my favorite words is "fubar" - it just seems to sum up the situation so completely! And it describes my workplace on a daily basis.

It's in the dictionary! It's a word!

Just for that, here is your punishment, the world's most embarrassing song to get stuck in your head:

Blinded by the light,
Wrapped up like a ______,
Another roller in the night.

OK, the most understood word in the entire world in virtually every country and language is, well, OK.

It was invented by a bunch of upper middle class boys in Boston who were fond of pretending they were immigrants and inventing what they pretended were immigrant mis-spoken or mis-written attempts at English. Anyway, OK was supposed to an immigrant's initials for All Correct but he got the letters wrong and they were, thus, OK not AC.

Supposedly the word missing is only deuce which meaning is two in French. And nope that didn't get stuck on my head

Didn't quite get what's the music problem, there's far worse... And that one is...

Many people know it and many hate, and it's considered by quite a few the worst song ever made... Yup you guessed it, it's...

FRIDAY

Never saw such dreadful lyrics and lack of talent... Although that stupid thing gets stuck on our heads too easily, it drives me nuts.

It really is a viral video because it really is a contagious virus.

Well guess I had to take that out of my chest

sorry guys

It would make sense yes. Even here in Portugal we use it quite often, almost anytime we want to confirm something
