getting snarky about rad

there is a word i keep seeing in the blogosphere and it's driving me crazy. that word is rad. i mean really, WHO SAYS THAT anymore?

however, there's another one that i like. snarky. it's often said in a political context. as in: "you gotta love twitter for all the real-time snarky comments about sarah palin."

but rad, rad was SO OVER in 1984.  and yes, i'm being snarky about it.
