#24: The Word "Redonkulous"




In the aughts, every group of friends included one person who continued to use the word "redonkulous" long after it was cool* to use the word "redonkulous." These people are all now.employed as celebrity commentators for US Weekly.


"Hey girlfriend! Me and Skyler went to see Herbie: Fully Loaded last night! The ending was straight redonkulous!"
" (sigh) . . . "
"What?"
"Get out."
"What? Why?! What did I say?!"
"Just . . . get out."



*The only time it was cool to say "redonkulous" was a brief but memorable three week period between April 15th and May 6th during the spring of 2001.
