Not that they were particularly 2008-ish, but they held some meaning to me this year for a variety of reasons.
Monkey: Use it combination with other words to create even better phrases, like the always utilitarian bad monkey; grease monkey; Wall Street monkey; love monkey; and cubicle monkey.
Mac: Because I'm just so fond of Apple products at the moment.
Bailout: See handout or cop out.
Neener neener: The perfect retort when you can't think of anything smart to say.
Coalition: Never has a single word freaked out Conservatives in Canada as much as this one.
Green: It still amazes me that there are people who see this as a bad thing. How can the greening of our planet be bad?
Another word of yours that is having repercussions....I realised when Jess asked me why eye boogers play hockey in Calgary....Heidi
