Ahhh! Teddy slept in so I'm coming in late with my near-the-end encouragement. You are a rock star! Keep on keeping on!
Now to catch up with the last eight hours of posts…
All I want to add is: shenanigans.
Hmmm. Shenanigans. Do you love or hate? I'm not sure I have any emotional response to shenanigans….
Thanks!!!
I love shenanigans… and the word, too. đŸ˜›
I'm pretty sure I can't hate problematize or hegemony by law as a sociologist. But I definitely prefer hegemony over problematize.
I do like “hegemonic.”
One word I hate is the use of “architect” as a verb. As in technobabble management-ese when people say things like, “We need to architect a solution.” Like Dear Dumbasses with no language skills, there's already a fucking verb for that: we call it “design.”
(I still can't believe DisqUs has no comment preview! Sad, DisqUs, very sad.)
LOL!! I agree “architect” as a verb is right up there with “action a solution.” FAIL!
Let me architect the actioning of the solution for you!
Love – it's fun to say, and it's a great middle ground between “getting into trouble” and “not doing anything (*trying to look innocent*)”
