Microsoft Excel 

Software created by Microsoft that non-technical people use instead of a database, or cheap companies use as a crappy application studio.
We have 6,000 Microsoft Excel files out there that are exactly identical in reference to the type of data they store. It would be perfect for a database, but we use Excel because the web server we store them on is already paid for by another department and we don't want to pay for a database.

Microsoft Excel VBA applications need to die. You will never get a real programmer to stay around if all you want them to do is build VBA applications with that shit because you are too cheap to buy Visual Studio. This may be why your turnover is so high or your developers lack motivation and ambition to do real work.

My shitty job wants me to program in VBScript and Microsoft Excel VBA. I am looking for a new job because I value my skills and wish to avoid Excel hell.

Excessivism 

An art movement that expresses itself primarily through abstraction and installations, it refers to the contemporary consumer’s urge to go beyond what is needed and beyond one’s means when acquiring material goods. The works, based on excessive tendencies, are a commentary in and of themselves on materialism.

The tenets of the movement began to appear during the 1950's in the works of European artists such as Frank Auerbach and Bram Bogart. The inaugural exhibition of Excessivism was held in 2015 at the LA Artcore Gallery, Los Angeles, Calif., curated by Kaloust Guedel, author of the Excessivism Manifesto. The group was acknowledged by art historian and critic Shana Nys Dambrot in an article about the exhibition printed in the Sept. 23, 2015 edition of The Huffington Post. An article about the movement itself was published February 8th, 2017 in the arts section of DiversionsLA.com
Excessivism is a fascinating art movement often observed in installations and abstract paintings.

It is the art of watching an excel file while it watches you back, while you are being incredibly unproductive.
I was working on our company's analysis and was excelling at that for many hours!
