The New Oxford American Dictionary's 2009 Word of the Year can trace its origins back to the 17th century. The word: "unfriend." Christine Lindberg, senior lexicographer at Oxford University Press, says the Oxford English Dictionary provides a citation for "unfriend" from 1659.
And if you are a "social media-ite you already know the word. You know what causes people to pull the unfriend trigger too. We all know the people who feel you have to know their every move;
- I just woke up,
- Toast is in the toaster
- Great sunny day
- Toast just popped up
Or the shameless self promotion version;
- Showing Houses to great clients
- Considering three choices
- Writing an offer
- Faxing an offer to the listing agent
- Negotiating the offer now
