'Selfless'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Timelies all!
Congrats Gris!
I am amazingly awake considering I got less than 5 hours sleep last night.(Got home after 1 am from the concert thanks to major construction on the Beltway) And the only caffeine I had today was a Coke at lunch. Concert was great, but I wish Gary had been able to go. (He's on a business trip we didn't know about when the tickets were purchased)
Solution? Still not a verb.
I just got to listen in on a work bitchfest. I feel all special now.
I have an hourlong meeting in 20 minutes. I feel unspecial again.
Solution? Still not a verb
I still don't get how.
Do you take your car to the shop and say, "I want you to solution my car?" Do you say, "Who solutioned my crossword puzzle?"
Ooh. Maybe "solution" (the verb) is the opposite of "precipitate."
"Yesterday it precipitated. Today all that water solutioned."
Well, as we've been solutioning in this project...
NO WE HAVE BEEN DOING NO SUCH THING. We may have been solving, we may have been designing, but WE WERE NOT SOLUTIONING.
It's so prevalent a term here, and it drives me batshit.
Well, as we've been solutioning in this project...
That ain't right.
Is there some gang of retired english teachers we can sic on 'em?
I'd like to solution why people keep abusing poor, helpless words.
I had an enormous soft ice cream cone for dinner, and I don't feel a bit guilty about it.
I have always hated "reach out to."
I have always hated "reach out to."
But at least those are real English words used in real English ways.
"To solution" is just messedupedness.
Could be worse, we "touch" people with our market development. And we count "touches." It's disturbing on many levels.
