              I've only heard T-bone used when talking about auto accidents.  But please, what's wrong with adversity?  Doesn't seem like it should be in the same category as twerking ...

              When it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run.  The only thing that matters is how we have loved.

                Although the launch of Obamacare prompted predictions of a health care apocalypse from the Intellectually bankrupt and partisanship on steroids chattering classes in the Twittersphere, Obama's fan base of Mister Moms's responded with plenty of selfies enrolling in plans for the first time.  See #Igothealthcare.  Despite all of his efforts nearly being T-boned by the problematic rollout in October, President Obama essentially twerked at the Republican doomsayers predicting a  doctor-ageddon of physicians leaving the profession in response.

                        I never want to hear the word twerking again... I don't care about the other words, Although selfie  has a connotation of ridiculous in my mind, so goodbye selfie as well.

                          But where is "adversity"?

                            Adversity is a noble word and it doesn't deserve to be on a list that includes twerking.
