List words and terms that you would never have expected to come out of the mouths of educated folks, but are now commonly accepted as proper English.
Here's some for starters:
Throw shade
Haters/hating on someone
'Don't go there'
Dissed/to diss
Represent/representing

No worse than hearing people say ginormous and other made up words or saying "Wtf" or "lol"

None of those are accepted as proper English. You're an idiot for suggesting that.

Ne'er to shirk
Ne'er to bolt
To your mother at home to stay.

These are all words and phrases I've heard come out of the mouths of white folks on CNN, NPR and Fox.
