This has cropped up at work, because we historically refer to training days as orientation days. So people will speak of being orientated to something.

Something even worse is a pseudo-technical term, "kicked in". Arrg! What does that mean? Usually referred to something starting. Picked up is a technical term that is OK.

Or, "hike" for any kind of rate or price increase.

Or, the trend of computer speak to use hard-hitting action verbs to refer to something that is really only happening at the software level- fragged, crashed, etc.

Nucular for nuclear makes sense to me, it seems a regional thing -much easier to say. Greezy for greasy drives me round the bend.

I could go on, but I better stop.
