Don’t blame the corporations. Dems have been peddling this nonsense for years. Remember how easy it was to define “woman”? Now even SCOTUS justices cannot do that.
How about these words and phrases? “Utilize” for use, and “go ahead” for something they’re going to do, which doesn’t need a description, for crying out loud!
My selection of comics is my “curated” page. In my last job, (building mandolins) the CEO used “synergy” a lot, and different body styles in the instruments were “platforms.” There was a lot of other “calorie-free multi-syllabic non-representational verbal gymnasticism,” too.
My job used to send me to those silly business seminars every once in a while (“The Paradigm Shift”…stuff like that) — and the speaker was usually the same guy.
His name? I kid you not — Gene Swindell! And yeah, he knows it’s hilarious.
He’s actually a pretty well-known motivational speaker and writer. And I’m very grateful I’m retiring in August and will never have to sit through one of those snooze-fests again!
Is she putting mayo on a ham & cheese sandwich? Ewwwwwwwww! I’ll curate my own bespoke sandwich experiences, thankyouverymuch!
Then again, looks like it might be bologna and American cheese, er, I mean “pasteurized processed cheese ‘food’”, so I guess she can’t ruin that lunch any more than it already is.

W. Shakespeare was the most eloquent writer English-speakers will probably every produce. His works were lyrical while still working the brain. And he NEVER sounded like one of hopelessly preciousness-illiterati mentioned above.
When I went to Ireland in 2009, it was all over the place: the Book of Kells experience, the Viking experience, the Jameson experience, and on and on and on. Theme villages proliferated like flies in an open air meat market. Kilkenny was the Wisconsin Dells of Ireland.
Sounds like liberals are inventing new meanings again.. like building maintenance no longer means repair but janitorial. Or semi truck drivers are now call freight relocation specialists.. all so dims can try to claim they create technical jobs

It reminds me of PC talk. IIRC, politically correct euphemisms are for the differently brained.

How can we tell which ones are the influencers and which are the influenced when all of them are videotaping themselves?

I used to be a “customer service representative.” Now I’m a “member experience advocate.” Mind, I did get a dollar raise.

I was a “Director of First Impressions” for many years. (that company’s euphenism for the more honest term, “Receptionist”) It was a running joke.

And don’t forget the 10% surcharge for using more electrons, ink and paper to promulgate the new job and product descriptions.
