Everytime I see or hear adjective "hip," I think of the Flintstones. Cretinous character sounded like Joe E. Ross: "Oo oo I'm hip I'm hip!"
Example of wordpadded statement: "I was born in the month of November and at the present time I am 53 years of age."
My fave wordpadding terms: "month of X" (just say the month), "X years of age" (just say the age), "at the present time" (just say "now")
