8) Sass squad
I must admit, I haven't been keeping up on the lingo of the youngsters. Most of my knowledge of pop culture comes from Laffy Taffy wrappers and YouTube clips of the Bad Girls Club.
So maybe my savvy readers can help. When I came back from Toronto, everyone in my office was saying the same insipid catchphrase- Haterade. Example:
"Could you guys quiet down, I'm on a long-distance phone call."
"Sounds like somebody drank their Haterade today!"
Over and over and over. My question to you is, have you ever heard this bon mot before or is it a creation of my office? I don't want to ask a co-worker and seem like I actually care. Before you know it, I'll be joining them for Jager shooters at J.J. Foley's and dishing on who gets sucked off in the records room. Gross.
Side note: When looking for the Bad Girls Club website, I came to the homepage of the Oxygen Network. All of a sudden a woman was talking to me openly about her vagina. Then her vagina started talking like Mickey Mouse. Gross.

"haterade?"
whoever came up with that needs to be beaten with his/her own shoe.
if i were you, i would simply let it fall from my brain like episodes (or clips of episodes) of 'hogan knows best'.
Haterade?
... never heard of it. You work at a very strange place. I would quit. If I were ever offered haterade, I would say, "no, I don't do drugs."
I pity you in your horrid, horrid office environment. I think if anyone at my office said that in an un-ironic way, they would likely be slapped.
In other news, I fully intend to use this at the marketing meeting tomorrow (ironically of course) because I am that lame. :D
Seconding Marissa's emotion.
I think "Haterade" has been around for a good 10 years or so. My condolences, friend.
good grief...sounds like a 5th grader type of lingo...sad, so sad. I am unaware of the current rambling phrase of children/people over the age of 6...the most popular I hear is the "jeez-O-Peez!" phrase. My apologies for the over-friendly vagina girl. Ew.
april- Maybe it's all the rage that's keeping the little bugger in your tum.
kyle- you've still got it, buddy.
marissa- these people annoy me but they do laugh at my jokes so they can't be all bad.
seventh ward- that's a big lie, but I did find this
pra- I hope none of your students know that you're familiar with the word 'vagina'
