Since going to get a master’s degree in science I have to pronounce plural hypotheseeeees and criseees. Not that I’m tryinjg to be smart, but those are the correct plural form of words.

I don’t disagree with you at all, unless you’re using the words to appear superior or impress. I’d say that actually “dumbing down” language is rude as hell to both yourself and company in a lot of conversations. It assumes the recipients need dumbing down to, or are unable to keep up.

Know your audience, choose your…

I’m not down with this anti-intellectualism. I have a large vocabulary. I use the words I know with the closest meaning to what I am trying to say. It means sometimes I use words other people don’t know. Fancy words are fun to learn and say!

still better than “i feel like...”

That’s “maximum overdrive” to you.

Not for cars. A turbo on a car is a very specific feature. Has there ever been a model from any company before that was marketed as “turbo” that did not have a turbocharger or two? I can’t think of any.

“Jefe... do you even know what a plethora is?”

Less egregious than BMW disconnecting their nomenclature from the engine displacement, and then tagging the displacement onto the end of the name anyways.

I could debate the use of a few of these. Like, you should use “synergy” or whatever in an interview if you’re going for a corporate customer service type job. They eat that shit up.

Now you’re thinking outside the box. 

Well, that was quite the paradigm shift. Good show!

I’m going to leverage your thought leadership when we ideate our next ecosystem disruption. I think a deep dive initiative will help unpack the core competencies needed to move the needle on our deliverables. Hopefully, it will incentivize engagement among key players. I’m out of pocket right now, so I can’t drill…

Plethora. Too much, eh? (I’m not crazy about myriad, either, as long as we’re talking about excessive ways to say “a bunch.”)

And after all that racist abuse, who ends up being school shooters???

The alt-right is the “alt-right” because calling yourself “nazi” or “fascist” is (rightly) placing yourself in bad company. TL;DR: They’re cowards

Intentionally overpaying initially, only to get an uncertain quantity of no-charge stuff later, does not so much seem like “free drinks” as “drinks you already (poorly) paid for.”

Stop being hypocritical. You can’t disregard the performance benefits of lower profile tires as being track specific only, but then talk about the performance benefits of decreased rotational mass. Thats just as much a track specific performance increase as all the other benefits of low profile tires. 

“Weed = assault rifles” is not what the OP said (they were not equating the two).

Name checks out.
