Some Words that were Born the Same Year as I Was… And Yours, Too

Agony aunt, ATM, blood & guts, colonography, domestic partner, garbology, misery index, smashmouth, and sub woofer, are now some words that make me a little more honored to have been born the year I was.

What a great use of the Internet by Merriam Webster:  This website that lets you see what words were born the same year you were.
