Michigan university releases list of words that should be banned

Posted: Updated:
ATLANTA -

It's time to double-down and take some terms off your bucket list.

The tongue-in-cheek list comes from Michigan's Lake Superior State University.

Can you think of any terms or phrases you'd like to see banned from the English language? Post your comments on our FOX 5 Atlanta Facebook page, or tweet us @GoodDayAtlanta
