This is a question 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

On the double.

Es-presso: concentrated black coffee made under steam pressure (from the Italian, literally 'pressed out')

Express-o: from the fucktard, figuratively, 'My lazy pronunciation drives HaHa!Snakes! insane'.

Attentive readers will have deduced that the pronunciation and intonation of the word 'espresso' is not the only linguistic mishap which makes me cringe with repressed rage.

I'll bet "latte" makes you froth at the mouth.

this makes me want to rant about sandwiches
A PANINO is a sandwich. A PANINI is gibberish. You can't have A panini, you can have several. If you want one, it's a panino. You can have a panino or some panini. It just means sandwich. It doesn't mean it has to be made of any special sodding bread. It's a f***ing sandwich. In another language. Wankers.

Clearly sandwiches make me angry...
