There are too many buzzwords in use - period! People tend to use buzzwords to either appear "in-the-know" (which I also despise) or to try to impress someone in the audience be it in person, email or blog. Some of the most over-used buzzwords are:

Bandwidth
Control group
Dynamic
Empower
Event horizon
Outside the box
Paradigm
Proactive
Win-win

You people that use these words: STOP!!! Try using normal words to convey your thoughts. When I hear "outside the box" I immediately start looking for something to wipe up the blood coming out of my ears.

Remember: be proactive. Invent a new paradigm. Think outside the box. And most of all, you must find a new way to empower your control group. It will be a win-win situation for us all.
