Quoted:
At the end of the day, the only real way we can compile a list of all the words that we should ban is if we hunker down and form a synergistic alliance with the community of lerners that we have on this website. Then, maybe we can finally give an up-or-down vote on what words should and shouldn't be on the banned list.

I have several persons of intrest that would be good candidates for this project. I need to go over some talking points with them, but once that's finished they should be on board.

Yo dawg, let's go git-r done!

A perfect storm of cliches.

Quoted:
"traction". This is the current buzzword in my company, used by high level manager's when speaking about a new project. As in, "In order for the new project to get traction, it will require alot of support from the field". At a recent meeting I was caught laughing by my RVP. When she approached me later she asked me what was so funny, I told her that I had a bet with another person attending the meeting, I bet $20 that the word "traction" would be used more than 5 times. I won. She didn't think it was as funny as I did.......

and my addition:

"take care"
