As I said before "social class" should be banned. You could ask one hundred people what it means and get 100 answers. yet everyone of those people will be convinced their description is right.

Going forward.

It's called "in the future" and using the former just makes you sound like a bell-end.

Lippy, bubbly (for sparkling wine), fab - anyone using those goes under idiot header.

Using mate, pal, hun, my dear or similar to address customers. Nurses are very fond of using my dear too. I always wonder if they are taught to be condescending and if it's limited to the profession because I was never addressed my dear by a doctor.

Xmas

Not sure how you can replace Christ with an X.

Ahem http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/xmas

The abbreviation Xmas for Christmas dates from the mid 16th century. The X is the Greek letter chi, the initial letter in the word Χριστός (Chrīstos) “Christ.” In spite of a long and respectable history, today Xmas is offensive to many, perhaps because of its associations with advertising. It is not used in formal writing.

I hate bullsh*t management slang .........

"Your take on ........?"

"Wow factor"

"Touch base"

"Outside the box"

"Taking ownership"

"My understanding of it is ........."

"Brainstorming"

"Going forward"

Somebody once said to me in work "Any chance I could stir-fry an idea in your brain-wok?" ........... what the f*ck!!??!!!

Maybe they were shy and wanted you to stir their porridge, as it were?

[Not sure how you can replace Christ with an X.

Just as you can replace Paddy with a P.. X is a letter of the Greek alphabet representing the Scottish or Irish language ch sound and in Greek is the first letter of the word Xristos/Christos. It's been around a long time.

It's on the way out, not quite dead yet. The cool people have stopped using it, the ones a little behind them still crack it out.

In my student days, I met a doctor who used to regularly address some of her patients as "chicken," as in "Just get up on the couch there, chicken." I suspect she doesn't do it much anymore.

'Porn' when it follows any word that's not associated with it's actual meaning.

Car porn, food porn, etc. Fúck off.

As Dave Gorman says, it's going to get to the stage where people will have to say 'sex porn' to distinguish ACTUAL porn.
