I know I'm getting older, because people's conversations sound like this:
Have you seen Schenley, it's streaming in Smoob, but if you don't have Smoob, you can PowerWerk it on Placebu.
We used to do intake through Franangle, but we're switching to PLOOP, but it doesn't have chat, so we are having to add Blamama XD!
In Celebrity News, Bargain Bin Ted, is now engaged to Dierks, just in time for the opening of their bar/sleep monstrosity Smooth Brain.
As a "greybeard" software developer who's paid to stay current on technology, I can't tell you how hard I want to roll my eyes at breathless product announcements like:
"It's Farbigast but written in Smoogle!"
Please, for the love of all that's holy tell me what.it.does and why in Buddha's name I should care that you've now built it with/for Smoogle. I beg you.

I swear sometimes Tech Bros are as faddish as characters from The Devil Wears Prada, alternatively cooing over or gagging at meaningless differences in tech "fashions" but taking themselves very seriously.
@PixelJones @RickiTarr Yeah, that's all part of "screeners", whether automated or human, whether at the agency or in the HR department, apparently existing for the sole purpose of disrupting any chance of useful communication between the candidate and the hiring manager.
