No gobbleygook. Got it. But is poppycock, balderdash, nonsense, and horse hockey acceptable?

I so need this at my work. I have the Dilbert “Buzzword Bingo” cartoon up, and it’s ridiculously relevant. Every f-ing day…

Huh! I didn’t even know Permacel was a Johnson & Johnson offshoot. They make the best gaff tape. Accept no substitutes.

With all due respect to him and his loved ones, I hope Maury Maverick didn’t live too long after the war, to feel the pain of seeing the idea he championed go down in such clear inglorious flaming defeat. He was truly a prophet, and fought the good fight. But talk about standing athwart history yelling stop. Hopefully he passed on to another dimension where his ideas found more fertile ground.

That is brilliant indeed. Reminds me of something I keep finding myself thinking of, as I keep finding real life situations where it applies- in one of the earlier Game of Thrones seasons, Tywin Lannister admonishes young King Joffrey: “Any man who must say “I am the King” is no true king”.

Is this the same thing as psychobabble?
