Trendy words

Chipotle.

I've come to hate that word. It's a roasted jalepeno pepper, fer pete's sake. But yuppiedom has taken that word and made it the 'in' thing, like they did to 'fajita'. Remember when every-freakin-thing was fajita-this and fajita-that?

Paradigm. Habenero. Meme.

People make me pro-nuclear.

98% of those chipolte weiners would run screraming like scared little girls if they tasted a real pepper.

Sad but true, which is a real shame because I love using chipotle powder in my cooking.
Same with habaneros, too...
Hubby and I aren't chipotle weenies, though--trust me. Even our 14-month-old son loves five-alarm chili!

Mmmm. I eat roasted jalapenos right out of the jar, but I've never heard/seen the word "chipolte."

I used "meme" in a recent post.
Please don't ban me. :)
