More phrases that should be thrown out or revived:

I long for the day when people (usually of the male persuasion) no longer answer emails with “Yup,” and “K.” As Walter Kirn pointed out on Twitter, it is a form of passive aggression that comes off as casual. But I mean really, perhaps write, Okay? Are we losing all our words around here? Did they get left outside in the rain or something?
Also would love to resurrect the phrase “green around the gills” for someone who looks a little sick. I mean, what the heck does that mean? That is why i like it.
