This is a question Irrational Hatred

People who say "less" when they mean "fewer" ought to be turned into soup, the soup fed to baboons and the baboons fired into an active volcano. What has you grinding your teeth with rage, and why?

All the pseudo-science words that the advertising industry foist on the world.
"Hydrated" used to have a very speficic meaning in chemistry which also had some applications in biology. Now it means "not thirsty", and it's supposed to be a postive thing we should all aspire to be in every waking fucking hour because some ponytailed fucknugget with £3,000 spectacles wants us to buy some of his bottled water/sweetened bottled water.

"Active Liposomes"?

My favourite was "Boswelox" which was clearly supposed to sound a bit like "Botox" (and L'Oreal got done by advertising law for the false claims they made about it). I liked it, though, because it sounded like "bollocks". Which was a much more accurate description of what was going on than anything coming out of the telly box.

Bosewellox
Is Bollocks as well. for those REALLY interested its a bastardisation of Boswellia Serrata, more commonly known as Frankincense. You know the stuff that a Magi is supposed to have given the Baby Jeebus on his birthday. The French pretend that it works by stopping skin cells on a slide twitching. Well thats nice, so does distilled water as it makes them blow up....

Collagen.
Some of these anti-ageing products claim to contain copious amounts of the stuff.
I never fails to amaze me how few people realise that collagen is one of the major components of scar tissue, which people don't seem so keen to look at. Shame really.
