The word "twerk"

[Sloane]

Needs to just die. It's all over the news, it's all over my FB newsfeed, it's here. I'm hoping now that all the moms on my FB are using it, it will lose it's cool immediately. 

ETA: this isn't a personal attack on those here using the word, it's just a comment that I see it at least 9, 536, 453 times a day.

do you know that that dj jubilee was singing/video-making about twerking in 1993?

Lol, no, I had no idea. My DH being a large DJ Jubilee fan probably should have enlightened me. I suspected it had been around forever.

Omg. Please don't let it be like "tweet".

I can't believe people are still so amused by working "tweet" into a conversation that they can't help but smile a little after they say it. IT'S BEEN AT LEAST FIVE YEARS. THE NOVELTY IS DEAD.

I had to ask my oldest earlier this week what the heck that meant. I've been hearing it everywhere but rarely have time to watch videos of any sort, so I really had no clue. He tried to show me. It was funny to see a 13 year old boy trying to do that. He made me promise to never tell any of his friends that he did!
