Default 2015 Word of the Year: -ism

In recognition of the towering intellects at Merriam-Webster I share with you their 2015 selection for word of the year:

-ism

Let not this non-word's un-wordly nature exempt it from dutifully fulfilling its role as that which it is not. When words regularly are used to mean precisely those things which they do not, it is fitting that we should acknowledge such a bane to reason in celebration of our continued perversion of language and rational thought!



What is you favorite -ism?
