nitpick of the year :A couple of new terms that were over-used in 2010

Editor's note" Person of the year was already taken so I figured I'd do some nitpicking instead.

I'm sure they're many others, but two terms that are sort of new and came to be over-used in a hurry during 2010 are "in space" and "moving forward". The first one is a term that I must have heard during this football season at least twice in each game. That is not remarkable in itself, but what's surprising is that this term just recently replaced "open field" and is already being used by just about every sportscaster around. Whereas in the past we would hear "That was a great open field tackle. It saved a sure touchdown!. Now, we get something more like " That was an incredible tackle in space, it sure saved a touchdown!. What do you mean "in space"? Doesn't that just about cover everywhere in the Universe?

The other one "moving forward" is usually heard on all the cable news channels. You'll hear things like "Well, it's going to be interesting  to see which issues the White House will focus on moving forward". Couldn't they have just used the word "now" or "this coming year"? I think we would have still gotten the gist of it.  Did I spell gist correctly? If you look at any word for too long, it starts looking like it's misspelled.
