Words and Phrases I’m Really Fed Up With

It’s not that there aren’t some fine sites that utilise some of the following; but the words and phrases themselves are so over-used that tedium sets in when I read them. To put this in context I read a trade story about the Costa Book Awards (formerly the Whitbread Book Awards). It explained that as well as including excerpts of the shortlisted titles themselves, there’d be “user generated content” with people writing about the books. So, effectively, that’s like Amazon right? They just want people to write books? Fine. Just say that. Don’t couch it in today’s hot new buzzwords.
Without further ado, here’s my list to date. Expect it to grow…
