The 72 Worst Internet Sayings, Ranked

The Internet has given us a lot of great things. Wikipedia comes to mind. Maybe email and online shopping make your list. I don't know (or really care).



But the Internet has also created a lot of terrible things, and most of them are words. And some, like Gawker editor-in-chief Max Read, want to put an end to this Internet speak.



Read sent a message to Gawker employees on Thursday laying out new rules for the website's language and banning Internet words like "epic," "win" and "OMG."



That's a good start. But there are a lot of other Internet words that need to go. So many, in fact, that we've decided to rank them in descending order from "just sort of annoying" to "anyone who uses this word dies." Without further ado:
