I have a new most hated word: AUTOMAGICAL

The spawn of the devil. The first bit of corporate-speak that I ever heard, and I've hated it and every soul sucking buzzterm since.

"take ownership"
"synergies"
"core competency"
"right sizing"
"going forward"

Nothing would give me more gratification than utterance of these terms becoming legal justification for homicide.

the OP made me hold in my hysteria to the breaking point, then the first reply made me lose it! LMFAO!

Lol, "low hanging fruit" that's the worst. "Value add" can be annoying as well. I use automagically when I'm explaining something to someone I know is still green on the topic. It's a silly phrase that just seems right with technical talk. Right up there with Bogosity and Magic Smoke. All are very techincal terms used in IT.

Automagically

Synergy
Value-Add
Visionary
Proactive
LEVERAGE (!)

Just about every business/tech buzzword that's had the sh1t beaten out of it.

And yes, Medicine Bear is a riot.

Low hanging fruit? I haven't been hit with that one yet...

Enable is getting some mileage around here, but not nearly as bad as "champion", as in "to champion an effort".

I despise that...
