Annoying words and phrasesMarketing 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

I think I managed to embarrass my friend from the other side of the Atlantic in that respectIt was an early live recording of the jazz band we used to play in, and she had it on a CD or some sort of mp3 player when she went over to visit her relatives in the States.
"Oh, is that your band? Well, put it on, let's hear it."
So the recording started playing and everyone sat down to dinner, with my friend unaware that, after one distinctly shaky-sounding number, the microphones had picked up me talking to the audience between songs and announcing
"Sorry, we kind of buggered that one up..."
The Irish side of the family thought it was hilarious. The Americans...less so.
