THE GLOSSIEST GLOSSARY OF FABULOUS FAKE VOCAB Maybe your vocab's out of vogue (please stop calling things 'rad'!) or maybe you're embarrassed you didn't know what your workmate meant when she told you about her 'desk-burn' (an uncomfortable injury sustained during in-office sex). Either way, you need this sexy, sassy guide to today's trendiest terms.

Packed full of the words and phrases that are just becoming popular, or that should be, this is your gorgeous glossary of the cleverest words you've never heard.
