It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Cannot be more annoying than a 47-page slideshow about wprds, but I would have no way of knowing.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I got left at a gas station in Northern Michigan. Because I wouldn't leave the magazine rack and get into the car. I believe I was about 12. New Kirk Cameron BOP! What's a girl to do?

They came back and found me calmly sitting on the bench, reading my magazine, drinking a can of Coke.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think this is the point we realise we're grateful that there are no fancy slide transitions. Other than the ones that reveal a bullet point at a time, can we please have a moratorium now? The explosion swirly vortex thing does not in any way enhance what you're trying to say. You're just reminding us that you're a business person, not an animator.

Our wings are not tired.

Forbes Most Annoying Business Jargon.

Didn't get through all of them, but I do hear quote a few of the ones listed. I say 'get my ducks in a row' often. One of my partners refers to her 'S.W.A.T Team' all the time which really amuses me because it takes new people a long time to figure out what she is saying with her accent. I just let them suffer because I am mean that way.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I say "ducks in a row" too - though I am not in the private sector. A student from mine overseas did not know what that phrase meant. He laughed at me.

Some of the business jargon serves a purpose, but a lot of it seems to be used by people who don't have any serious thought behind it.
