    I'm not gonna give an example of one, you just need to read a job application.

  3. A few weeks ago "rizz" was being celebrated as the OED's word of the year. Now, it's time to remove it from your vocabulary. NPR reports on the 2024 Banished Words List, devised by the faculty at Michigan's Lake Superior State University, and including terms like "impact" (especially as a verb), "hack," "at the end of the day" and "cringe-worthy." Which word or phrase would you like people to ditch this year?

  4. "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. Great song; I really liked it the first 200 times I heard it, and it was kind of ok the next 200 times.

    "Lessons have been learned," the corollary of which is, "but we'll ignore them next time."

  6. "Let that sink in." Very definitely overused, but it was annoying even back before it got to that point. It's a condescending and self-congratulatory way of saying "that thing I just wrote is so complex that it's going to take an ignoramus such as yourself considerable time to grasp its profound significance." Hey, if you think your reader will have trouble decoding what you wrote, maybe go back and do a better job of explaining yourself? Just a thought, but one that I always have when someone injects little reading-comprehension suggestions into their deathless prose.

  7. A colleague of mine will say "at this moment in time" at least once in every meeting.

    I'm not sure what's wrong with the word "now".

    The #Youtube specialities:

    “Now for a word from our sponsor!”
    “Like, comment and subscribe!”
    “Hit that bell for notifications!”

    To be fair, they do work. Hence why they’re so common.
