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.

Portmanteau expressions.
'edutainment', 'brunch', 'metrosexual' etc
The dominant means of word coinage among media and marketing twats.
I've never known anyone to use these in any great number, without irony or embarrassment, who wasn't a complete fucking cunt.

i quite like making up portmanpressions, plenty of good words originate as portmanteaus. but i similarly despise the ones that marketments shovel on us at reglarvals

With all due respect
KRS-One's album 'Edutainment' is a classic; Brunch is the best meal of the day - smoked salmon with scrambled eggs washed down with bucksfizz. Mmmmmm. I feel no shame in talking about brunch. Metrosexual though - agreed. Meaningless rhodent spunk. Time is the test and 'metrosexual' won't survive it.

but you did yourself no favours with the bit about brunch.
