Totally agree with "bae" (I usually see it in lower case, and referring to a person so it means "before anyone else"). And also cra-cra (also seen as "cray-cray"). Ugh. Get rid of them!

"Cra-cra"... the dumbing down of humanity continues.

I can easily do without "swag" and "foodie" as well. Still a cut above "twerk", though.

Swag is the worst. Don't forget YOLO.
