Annoying words and phrases
Marketing bollocks, buzzword bingo, or your mum saying "fudge" when she really wants to swear like a trooper. Let's ride the hockey stick curve of this top hat product, solutioneers.
Thanks to simbosan for the idea

Homer-isms.
Homer Simpson is, by all estimation, a complete idiot, a buffoon, a figure of ridicule. He is not someone that people would normally wish to model their lives on.
So why is it that people often call it "alcomahol"? Why do they use the term "saxomaphone"? For fuck's sake, I once heard an engineer refer to the breaking strength of a sample in "kilomajoules."
Are you people really trying to convince me that you're morons? Because it's working better than you know.

It's just a bit of fun to lighten up an otherwise tedious day working with miserable cunts like you!
Lighten up. Unless you personally edit the OXE you're just pontificating on pop culture trends. Or summat.

No.
I'm objecting to the cutesy mangling of words in hopes that that will somehow make them more amusing. All it does is make you sound vacuous.
If you want to sound amusing, try some witty word play.If you can do no better, at least use puns. They indicate that there's something actually going on inside your head.

Well said. And Homer Simpson is not even that funny to begin with.
