That's kinda like how, in the South, we say, "Bless your heart."

Translation: "I'm sorry you're so stupid."


And I thought I was being consoled all this time. :-(

Using the term "bandwidth" in place of capacity, ability, manpower, etc.

As in..."We as a department couldn't possibly take that on, we don't have the bandwidth!"

Amen.  Stopped my wife (she works in consulting, occasionally says "going forward," "ping," and a few others that are annoying but tolerable) mid sentence to yell at her for this a week or two ago.

I basically said "what the **** did you just say?!?!"

Oh yeah, you know what just burns me?!?!  When people replace the words "tip" or "advice" with the work "hack" these days.  Argh, that's annoying!!!


But it's better than everything that's called a "weird trick."

Or "unpack this" instead of "explain/discuss this."

Almost as bad as "Let me unpack that for you."

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I'm going to thank my lucky stars (and knock on wood) because I haven't heard this one yet. :)

Should've told her to speak to her internet provider. Up that bandwidth.

If she ever offers to "unpack" something for you, you should offer to push her stool in. :w00t:

There are also the people who say ironic when they mean coincidental. I don't know if that has been mentioned yet, but it bugs the shit outta me.

I hate "socialize". People use to like this: "I like your idea but we need to socialize it". Rarely are the discussions anything but social. Funny story. Few years ago we had my mother come in for Christmas, so my wife and in-laws played "buzzword bingo" with her because she used to rant and ramble about a number of topics. All 4 days my mother-in-law was saying weird crap to her to try and get her to say some of her phrases. She eventually won because my mother really, really is nutso.

How about those that use "Yada, yada, yada"

Don't know. Let's proactively dialogue about it to set expectations.

I actually don't mind this.

    • I think I like this hole.  It is a clear "Risk-Reward" choice.  Since most of the shots in your cone cleared the bunkers I would say they are a minor risk and not a big issue.  Playing the aggressive line may give you 70ish yards in from what looks to be playable rough while conservative play is 120ish from fairway.  I know you said 70 vs 120 is minor for you but how does the approach angle in impact your results?  I figure both strategies are playing for Birdie since holing out from either is mostly luck. Looking at your proximity hole I think it says @ 50 feet when hitting from the fairway from 100-150 and 40 feet if hitting 50-100 from the rough.  Neither of those is an easy birdie putt.   I like the approach angle from the rough between the bunkers & the adjacent tees over the angle from @ 120 in the fairway but I really do not like the idea of hitting onto the adjacent tee boxes and that may impact my confidence with making the shot.  Also, too far left may be a worse approach angle then from the fairway short of the bunkers. For me this may come down to how confident do I feel when I reach that tee box.  If I am stroking it well off the tee leading up to the hole I would try for over the bunkers and the better angle in but if I am struggling that day I would likely opt for the fairway to take more bad stuff out of play.
