Words that absolutely, postively must not be said this next year:
temblor
This word gets beaten to death every time we have an earthquake big enough to make the news.
decimate
This word is only legal when noting that out of every ten of something, one of something gets done in...instead of using it as a synonym for destroy, which is usually it. Better to use annihilate, if you're going to go all melodramatic.
