NEW YORK - LEXICOUGARPHY

Well what do you know? It's already that time of year, when the OED tosses a bone to people who say stuff. The food nerds got "locavore." The nerd nerds got "bacn." The bee nerds finally got "Colony Collapse Disorder." Some weird film nerds got "Mumblecore"(at least it beats fucking "Slackavettes"). And look! Here's a little sliver for us. "Cougar." Only a scant year after its total recuperation by everybody gross, cougar is now in the dictionary. We considered throwing a little coming-out party like the proud parents we are, but really it'd probably be smarter to focus our energy on 2008's entries. We're racing douche chills and douchebumps. Bets can be placed in the comments.
