Buzz word

 

[Modeps]

"And Again..."

 

[WannaFly]

I'll have to definately agree that the ginormous word automagically is simply worse then combobulated.

EXTREME

extreme this, extreme that. all those marketeers that continue to use that word so liberally should be drug out into the street and shot, or at least stoned to death with their own products.

 

[imported_Strang]

Are those really buzzwords? None of those things (outside of the word "buzzword" itself) are even nouns.

So far this thread is about annoying turns-of-phrase in a sentence or annoying adjectives.

Especially when they tag 'Extreme' after their Radeon 9200se cards.

Making it "XTREME" is even worse.

Segway is ONLY a brand. The word is segue.
