What slang has crept into your vocabulary to such a degree that you use it without even thinking about it? I don't mean when on the internet, I mean in real life when actually talking out loud to other people. For me, it's "cool." Picked that one up when very young, still use it without even thinking about what I'm saying. It annoys me, but oh well. I'm conscious enough of it that I can stop saying it in inappropriate situations, so no big problem I guess. There are other slang terms I use, but they are not as fully integrated into my daily vocabulary.

oh yeah i use cool all the time now. another few is i tend to use the word Owt alot and then theres the obvious nah which i probably over use

[Darkwatch]

Cool is part of my vocabulary now as well, though I do believe it is no longer slang.

"'Sup" has become a common occurrence.

Otherwise I'd have to record myself to find out what I use.

[Raymond Luxury Yacht]

Owt?

[Giles]

Owt basically means anything. e.g "you guys up to owt tonight" similarly for nowt. Ive been living with northeners too long

All my friends spend way too much time on the internet, so internet shorthand has kinda crept into our spoken conversation. And being a Saffer, some of the more descriptive (colourful if there's rugby on) afrikaans words have insinuated themselves into my everyday language, the most common being 'lekker'. That and the zulu word 'eish', neither of which I can think concise translations for. There's tons more ('sup, yo, dude, sweet etc) but they're fairly common as far as slang goes.

Don't know if words like 'cool' can really be considered slang anymore, they're pretty ingrained in the english language. I think 'cool' specifically has been around for the better part of 50 years now.

bawbag, bawsac, and bawjaws.


What?

[Jusentantaka]

sexual? dozens and dozens, my favorite being penising - had a friend who had a friend who would say "Bend over and I'll show you ..." to any insult... fuuuunnny shit ensued from that.

I also say bitches a lot. And I call pretty much everything dildos.

[Illuyankas]

Awesome. I've made an effort to cut down on it and I still use it too much. Also dude, 'What is up' as posh as I can make it, and fuckbin.

I also overuse bitches. As well as the word itself.

fuckbin? fuck. bin. I like it. Now to find someone to test it on.

[bubba]

I tend to use the word "Fucktard" while driving way to much.....I blame these forums for it's introduction into my vocabulary.

[RodeoRanch]

"Awesome" and "eh" are my linguistic crutches.

Ditto.

'Waus' enters and exits my vocabulary seemingly at random. Something can be pretty waus, in which case, it is nice, but you can also say flikker op, waus, in which case you tell the crazy idiot to fuck off to the asylum he came from for some extra involuntary sodomy.
Kutten is also a favorite verb (vagina-ing, or a rather better direct translation, slitting), but that one is commonly used. Dudette is a personal favorite, as well as an overly extended 'niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice'.

When on the forums, I use awesome a lot.

All the common ones (cool, sweet, dude, etc.). Fucktard I got from Red Vs. Blue. As a Canadian, I obviosuly say "eh?". Fail and other things originating from the interwebz (including all manners of acronyms), too. I didn't think awesome was a slang word. I'm not sure as to whether ditto is or not. Are they [not]?

I can't think of any others at the moment.

In college, I was somewhat feted and ridiculed for saying "What the crap?" often enough.

Now, I say "y'all" pretty durn frequently even though I am an Asian-American who lives in the northern U.S.

Oh, and "durn". I blame Lonesome Dove.

[Vengeance]

While driving I tend to use "fuckabunnyrabitinitsasshole" well I used to I have been told that I can't any more as Bunny's are cute. Also "fuckingkumquat" is another great driving one. Oh and "WIN" that is from here...

Nothing more awesome than an asian cowboy. or cowgirl. Not that I have any remote, possible, at all, ever, experience riding a horse while wearing a handkerchief around my neck. Never.

"Ain't."

I heart it.

Likewise. I blame You other drivers for requiring an accurate description of their driving and obviously limited intellectual capacities. Very loudly. Often accompanied by arcane gestures.
