    Words You Are Sick Of Hearing

    Or phrases.
    With me,it's "comprehensive".

    Using "message" or any of its derivatives as a verb, such as, "I'll message you", or "He was messaged".

    The word 'up' when it immediately follows 'rise.'

    What? You're going to rise down?

    How does that resonate with you?

    I've got a manager who loves the sound of his own gums flapping. Everything is buzzword bullshit. How does that resonate? How about a hit you in the head with this aluminum baseball bat and we talk about how it resonates?
    s'all goof.

    This is true. We much prefer to compare the Meerkat !
    ( that's lost a lot of people so a link is in order!)

    My contribution: "caring for staff". This phrase, when used in it's usual
    context has nothing whatsoever to do with actually "caring" for staff.

    The word 'controversy'

    So over-used, and often it's just nothing important, especially when used by the media.

    Our HR Dept at work have nothing better to do so they come up with really crap sayings, at the moment we have Respectember hopefully that will be followed by Gofuckyourselftober.

    And I hate any word that starts with "i" as in ipod, itunes, iphone and of course ipad. Apple's overadvertising here is driving me nuts, I wish their products lived up to the marketing hype

    Especially when it goes "If you or a loved one have suffered injury, illness, or death, please call...."

    -- which parses down to "If you have suffered death, please call."

    I always wonder if that's still a toll-free call, dialing from the afterlife.

    Reverse mortgage..........

    to me it's a scam to steal homes from older people,or rather their heirs.Why do you have to be 62 or older? What if you are 40 with a home that has a ton of equity (inherited,ect)?
    The reason? A 40 year old will probably live long enought to pay back the mortgage.
