apr 18 2010 ∞ oct 19 2014 +
- hero - because it's vague, overused, and often an inappropriate word choice
- passion/passionate - overused to the point where it loses its meaning
- reach out - instead of the simpler and more descriptive "talk to"
- i feel like - instead of the more accurate "i think," particularly in academics
- vehicle - when people pronounce the "h" it makes my skin crawl
- "way to ___________" - condescending
- good hustle - because it means absolutely nothing and reminds me of the horrendous soccer moms (and girls) of my youth
- hey there - instead of "hi" or "hey" or "hello." unnecessary addition of a word, and condescending.

- visual studies - taught me to apply literary/critical analysis to images. this class changes the way you see the world.
- constitutional law - nationally renowned professor; plus, it teaches you the realities of freedom and checks and balances in america.
- art history (various) - because it makes you sound smart at cocktail parties. and you get to look at beautiful things.
- intellectual property law - fascinating to me as a writer and child of the internet age.
- religion - classes about religion, not classes indoctrinating you in a certain theology. because the more you know, the less likely you are to be manipulated (not that faith is a bad thing, but religions can manipulate).
- history - any history. because those who ignore their past are doomed to repeat it...
