Here are some buzzwords and phrases (old and new) to add to the list which figure into my “blah, blah, blah” indicator: globalization, making a difference, green, better serve customers, emerging technologies.

Actually, I had a writing professor who tried to get us to avoid using the word “the” in our writing. It was tough! I’d say that many of the empty superlatives, like “great idea,” “perfect solution,” and “marketing whiz” should be avoided.

Excellent list, but how about coming up with a new list to replace these overused words? It’s funny, we use the word “the” at least a gazillion times a year and nobody gets sick of that word. Go figure. Do we just find anything new, i.e. requiring change, untolerable? I say “let’s be pro-dynamic”. That’s my new buzz word.

Ugh – “monetize.” So sick of it, and it’s still fairly new!
