Refering to "sports" as "sport" is becoming distrubingly common.

"brilliant" and "cheers" have been going around for a while, and are maybe starting to fade. "uber" is further along in its decline, and I'm glad
"taking the piss" is awesome and I hope it becomes big |

When I first moved to England from Canada taking the piss was the one saying that took me the longest to get use too. "Sorted mate?" was another. Then after a few years I moved back and still used a lot of them but I got mocked for it constantly so stopped and now when I try to say them when talking with friends from England I sound like an idiot since my Canadian accent is so strong again.

I like the term "geezers" that The Streets uses a lot in his songs, I am trying to make it cool slang in the U.S., but I doubt it will succeed.
