Totally unrelated, I had hoped "ish" died. For the unaware, the youths 10 years ago were using that as a substitute for "shit." It is a dumb new word because it already exists and means "approximately" or "slightly" as a suffix. So dopish is slightly dopey (slow/dumb). Yes, I subscribe mostly to words evolving. I don't like this case specifically. </tangent>
Ha! Intellectually I completely agree. This particular term has recently worked its way back into my social circle's lexicon because we all have young kids and are trying to swear less. I'm not sure I have ever used it in writing before, and I guess I never will again!
