As the web becomes more popular, more trendy bullshit is arising. I look at Lifehacker occasionally because sometimes they have something good. Usually though, it’s like a bad self-help magazine article. Their current story “Make Mom a Mix CD” is obnoxiously obvious and boring. “Got Stress? Cry It Out Baby” is akin to a generic health article in some homemaker’s magazine.
In essense, Lifehacker is Oprah’s magazine “O” mixed with PC Magazine.
Hell, why stop at punching? I defaced a monastery after I read another circlejerk tech journal article about Kevin Rose and digg-this and digg-that and digg it right up his ass.
Only a punch?
Aww, I like “lifehacker” . . .
1. leveraged buyout
2. life coach
3. discuss this offline
4. value-added
5. benchmarking
my top 5
People still use Blogosphere?
And what about “Think outside the box”
Fox Broadcasting has a new one absolutely driving me nuts, ‘mobisode’.
Don’t forget “portal”.
The Suits always get giddy for those buzzwords.
As if next they’ll talk up the market influence of Lolcats.
Lick me!
That second one fills me with indignation too.
My Boss suggesting we ‘touch base’ ….
sounds perverse…
I work in marketing and there are two words/phrases that drive me insane:
go-to-market strategy
and
verbiage
ugh.

I dislike being told to make things “pop” when I’m working.
Thank god I’m not the only one who froths at the mouth over Web 2.0.
SUCH a bullshit term.
blogosphere!
