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

yeah......no. There quite clearly is an accepted standard for almost all languages. It may be the case that consistently breaking that standard causes it to change, but that does not mean that a particular phrase is not wrong at any given point in time.
[edit: you can break a language into dialects if you would like, but that doesn't undermine my point.]
Not to mention that - in my opinion - if you can't be bothered to speak your native language to the standard that is widely expected, all you are displaying is your academic ineptitude, and quite frankly you should expect to be scorned.
