I just reached for the firewater, hoping for some retroactive amnesia.

I would never say "Kleenex" unless I were referring to that specific brand of tissue (much the same way I refuse to say "Xerox" unless I'm photocopying using a machine manufactured by that company).  In any case, I prefer a handkerchief.

Band-Aid or "adhesive strip"?

 I use the phrase 'band-aid' for all manner of things.

Well, I actually use Band-Aids, but I'll 'fess up:  I do use that trademark name generically.  A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, right?  Got to keep 'em guessing, after all.

I don't like the word group.  I just don't like the way it sounds.

Edgy.  When used to describe something out-of-the-mainstream, not when used to describe someone who feels troubled or uneasy

Awww, but I love indie pop. I don't think Oasis is indie pop.
