What the hell is up with this word.
Everyone is all of a sudden using it, like it some big stuffy word. Do people think it makes them sound smart or something.
I just dont get it.:yuk:

Ok did u write that somewhere.
The other day I was in a meeting and everyone was using it, Iwent to the store and the guy who worked there was using it.
i went home and opened my cool Dic to see if i needed to start using it. The finally straw was when my co worked called a little while ago and used it. This guy is a rock, so im curious why this word is all of a sudden so popular.
37 hits and 1 reply, i take it alot of people dont know what it means, albeit they may.:eek:

Nope, didn't really know what it meant, so I looked it up in the dictionary. Don't think I will be adding it to my vocabulary.

A couple other nuggets that make me want to jump across the meeting room table and knock someone out:
Proactive
Think outside the box
Action Item
Assigned Responsibility

ALBEIT this is a VILLAGE. We must think OUTSIDE THE BOX and PROACTIVELY assume our ASSIGNED RESPONISBILTIES. HENCE we will then take our ACTION ITEMS and create our VISION of what we are COLLECTIVELY to become......
Shit I can be a CEO of a bunch of nonsense.......

I haven’t heard many people using “albeit” yet. The thing I was tired of hearing everyone say was “as well”. Like in “I like that rack (as well).” Always seemed like it didn’t need to be said.
