Impact
especially when used as a verb.
I think you meant "affect", you chinless corporate toss-spout.

I got especially upset at an HR manager who opined that our "brand message" needed to be "more impactful". I mean, really, WTF?

I have no problem with its use when describing an object smacking into something, though. Like my palm across the back of an HR manager's head, to pick an example at random.

"chinless corporate toss-spout"
