Or hate Leica just because......😉

I like to interface with my database which is in cyberspace.

You are sooo outdated. Cyberspace ist out. Nowadays you do cloud computing so everything is in the cloud.

Did I mention that I can't hear the buzzword "cloud" anymore?

when did we get a sense of humour?

I thinks its fairly obvious that if we continue to live here then we must have a sense of humour :bang:

I had one "boss" who began each message with "Folks."

Then his two boot-licking toadies began to start their messages the same way. I refused to drink the Kool-Aid, so when the layoffs came around, guess who got squeezed out of a job.

I sometimes wonder if I shouldn't have been kissing his ass like my two sniveling colleagues. Hindsight is not often better -- it just keeps you up at night.

I HATE messages that begin with "Folks."

I agree with the OP, but would include "film camera" too. What I find distasteful is the idea that digital technology has to replace other technologies.

"This word. You keep using it. I do not think it means what you think it means."

Inconceivable!!!

Poor Kool Aid - Jim Jones used "Flavor Aid" - Kool Aid forever stigmatized!

Definitely 'key' when used to describe something other than a metal object used for opening a lock. . .

Key light?

Keystone?

"Anybody want a peanut?"

Irregardless

Ooohh, I hate that!

Also, "should of" or "could of" instead of "should've" or "could've."

Or hate Leica just because......😉

"buttery smooth".

Disgusting, really.

[Sparrow]

I don't care which way I swing

I'm none too keen on proactive and "going forward". The language of consultants. However, like or loathe, we have to get used to the fact that once a word or phrase is in common usage, we're stuffed., init.

 

[Sparrow]

Downsizing, as in "you're sacked"
Smartsizing, as in "you're sacked"
Rationalisation, as in "you're sacked"
Modernisation, as in "you're sacked"


Consultation, as in "you're sacked, but a bit later"

Oops. That told me.

I'll have to revise - I hate the word 'key' when managers use it to mean "quite important". Especially when it's over-used during a really dull company briefing!

PS - Thank you for all the information on your site, I've learning quite lot from it 🙂
