'...the precise correlation between the information you communicated and the facts, insofar as they can be determined and demonstrated, is such as to cause epistemological problems, of sufficient magnitude as to lay upon the logical and semantic resources of the English language a heavier burden than they can reasonably be expected to bear.' Sir Humphrey - Yes, Minister.
In other words I told a lie - or rather I'm about to. This post does not live up to the title of 'Things I've Found' as this item was something I was directed to by a tutor at university. The item is called 40 Publishing Buzz Words. It contains knew definitions for words we're all familiar with.
One of my favourites is: “classroom-friendly”: “kids won’t read it unless they have to”
These come from twitter so there's bound to be more.
I seemed to have had an errant apostrophe in these posts. 'Things' doesn't have an apostrophe - unless it does and this is the mistake!
