    Yes!

    We're going to uniquely formulate cloudified solutions, intrinsically e-enable resource-levelling benefits, and efficiently restore sustainable initiatives as we appropriately scale multidisciplinary strategic theme areas whilst phosphorescently conceptualising vertical products...

    When I ask someone a question and they respond with "What do you think?" I asked for a reason. Don't be pretentious. Answer me. Or worse, when they just say "google it." I could. But I'm asking you. Especially if they brought the matter up or used the word in a sentence. If it comes out of your mouth damn it, explain it to me!

    This is the first time I've ever even heard of the phrase "meteoric rise".

    I am strictly not a fan of "without further ado". Bonus salt points if its spelled "adieu".

    That said, I know I'm going to annoy someone at some point, so strap in for some entirely unintentional haphazard colloquialisms. And adjectives.
