We've been using "munter" in every day conversation for a lot longer than Outrageous Fortune has been gracing our screens....

I would have gone for for "ohforfuckssake" based on the number of times I have said it when looking at newspapers this year.

But the word "unbundled" is such a load of consulting arse (I think I used it at least twice in my time as a "little c".)

Still,…

Merc – do you perhaps mean the word of 2004?

I'm just happy someone nominated 'Hubris'.

I suppose it's too late to nominate (and coin) "Brashiness"

Everyone who really knows, knows, 'idiot', as in Napoleon Dynamite was the word of '06.
Vote for Pedro and all your dreams will come true.

Munter?

He's up there in second place, but doesn't everyone love Aurora?

I am a little disappointed that "unbundled" was the word of the year – does anything related to Telecom really deserve to win any prizes. I mean, come on, Richard.

OTOH, i think w00t!, with the proper marketing, could win every year:

The Democrats retook Congress – w00t! (2006)
W00t!…

I was going to go for 'bouncebackability' but as usual, was far too disorganised and, ultimately, late.

Great NZ Holiday? Bah, humbug.

One of the downsides of working for northern hemisphereans is that when they are snowed under and cold, they want us to feel the same, and product release that I'm working on is set to 3rd January.

Seriously.

For all those customers who feel that…
