Just heard a commercial on talk radio telling people about a gym where they could "get their sweat on".

This indicates that the phrase 'Get your _blank_ on" has reached saturation point, and needs to be elminated from the english language.

Agree? Disagree?

Ebonics should be banned.  Slang is one thing, pidgin English is another.

Here are my rules:

When it makes it's way into advertising or children's toys, it's time to put it to rest. At Walmart, I saw a toy car with spinners and a way to hook up your iPod in the trunk, so that you too can be ghetto fabulous.

I kinda like it...

When I go to the bar I say "time to get my drink on".

Very very 2004.

And saying that your "celly is blowin' up" when your wireless phone rings is also entirely played out.
