...orientated.

[/ QUOTE ]
That one makes me crazy.

[/ QUOTE ]

Please explain to me what's wrong with "orientated". Are you talking about the word itself or just how it's annoying that people use the term as part of meaningless corporate-speak?

Anytime I hear someone say that, I want to bash them in the face with a hammer.
