I didn't use words 7, 9 or 10 in 2014. I did use 8 to ask what it was. May start saying bashtag to annoy my best friend though, he'll hate it.

The word i've heard most in 2014 is "No".

Occasionally combined with "thanks" but not always.

Regarding 8. I can't believe anyone can still call white privilege 'alleged' anymore?

Other then that, what an interesting list!
