Basically.

Basically, this is the one word I hate when used more than once in a conversation between 2 people....oh wait >_<
 
I've heard "what's your vector?" used in my office. I think it's the same as "what's your angle". I never use vector outside of a math context.

hahahahahhahahahahahahhaahha,, i suppose he's asking 2 questions with "vector" where you're going,, AND how far you'll take it...

Though I doubt he'd know that... yarrrggggg:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
"going forward", a useless crutch of a phrase that adds nothing and can be struck from the language without impact.

Oh man, I forgot about that one. If you watch any of the financial porn, they can't end a question without it.

"So they filed chapter 11, what does this mean for stockholders, going forward?"

the man said to me "you gotta vector about this?"

and i said "i have a magnitude.....and direction"

YEAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
 
"British".

I wish this word didn't exist because people insist on calling the English; british when they mean English.

British != English

I hate any kind of retarded "business speak". Douchebags that use abstracted words and phrases can go to hell. It's usually just a bunch of nonsense to make themselves seem smarter, while deflecting attention from the issues, and not conveying any information of substance.
 
Anyone said "like" yet?

I HATE that word with a passion. And the fact that I hate it pisses me off. It's a perfectly good word, but gen. Y and Z (or gen. "me") have ruined it for everyone.
