When people use bandwidth to talk about anything but data transfer.

 

Had a coworker tell me he didn't have the bandwidth to take on an additional project. Wanted to tell him to get a new modem. 

 

My better half is an IT Ops Officer and she hears the Army Corp misusing/ coopting IT words all the time. I probably get the hate from her. 😁

Despite my initial post, my tribal drive compels me to join.

 

Definitely "woke", regardless of political or cultural or ethnic identity or motive

 

"confabulate" in any context

 

"generational" which in stadium threads has come to run an ambiguous range from pretty good to truly awesome

 

JIzz, jism, ballsack, babe, jocksniffer, rack, boobs, and others of similar nature, which every time I see or hear them reminds me of how quick and easy it is for many supposedly adult males to transform into adolescent morons for a moment 👹 (prove me wrong😁)

 

 

Someone opened a huge can of worms 🤣

Adult males see "jism".  People that see "jism" turn into adolescent morons.  Therfore adult males are adolescent morons.

Do we have a "Words you Love" companion thread to this one?  I think we might.  We definitely should. 

And idioms. You don’t love words if you don’t love idioms. They’re often absurd and make direct translations hilariously confusing.

"Gas-lighting"

 

Always heard it, had to look up the meaning. I don't like that word.

You don’t hate the term gas-lighting. You’re just in a weird mood right now.
