"Do better."

Oh, you eat meat? Do better!
You have a hobby? Do better!
You don't support my political cause? Do better!
You don't think a man can get pregnant? Do better!

"Living my best life."

Translates as belittling your peers on social media.

Plenty of good ones already listed, can add to these;

- "engage with", used to be called "talk to"
- inappropriate use of the "Oxford comma", i.e. and, and, and, (no it's not clever, it's lazy)
- Generally poor grammar and spelling
- This is more about phonetics, but ending a sentence on a high note as if it's an American question (makes me visibly cringe)

I blame marketing departments for all this - they seem to drive the drivel.

Just had a gem arrive in an email just now:

"I thought of getting on a virtual coffee with you to discuss 18x faster automation for your company's ESG data management."

WTF is a "virtual coffee" and how do I "get on it"?

Methodology. No, it's a method. You may have derived the method by using methodology although I seriously doubt it.

My current hate is "lived experience".

Nah, go on, your lived experience is worse than mine, right?

The one that gets me going is "cancelled"

[insert generic pop star here] has been cancelled because he done something bad once when he was drunk when he was 12

Like that makes them disappear forever!

Drives me mad, this whole cancel culture.

Peirs Morgan was cancelled

No he wasnt, he was unfollowed by a load of idiots who were just as idioty as he was/is. the dude is still there, the dude still spouts idiot things, it means nothing.
