Buzzword Salad is a variety of word salad that heavily uses "buzzwords" rather than conventional words. Imagine an ad man or PR hack speaking in tongues about the next safe tobacco product in a harsh CDC report.
I thought that word-salad was pure gibberish, but there was a signal of the "buzzwords" here. Buzzword Salad is a variety of word salad that heavily uses "buzzwords" rather than conventional words. Imagine an ad man or PR hack speaking in tongues about the next safe tobacco product in a adversarial CDC report.
Imagine an IPCC citation, which is legitimate, blurred with the buzz-word salad.
Imagine the next CDC report, mixed with an antivaccine essay.

Oh Shit, Duck! Here comes Buzzword McJargon... And He's wearing his helmet again. Maybe if he doesn't see us he wont come over here.
Buzzword: "Hey guys I wrote a erlang script that will corrupt your firewall by spraying udp packets with invalid checksums."

Someone who over uses technical or industry terms to seem more knowledgeable about a subject than they really are.
"Yeah, I've worked on ERP's, OSS's using the latest ORMS all feeding into a No-SQL data base."
That' dudes a fucking buzzword commando.

An individual, typically on an online forum, who uses buzzwords to try to make an argument instead of providing proper evidence and research that backups or strengthens their points.
Typically used as a means to lash out at people they disagree with, and see as a threat trying to ruin their sense of enjoyment.

Commenter 1: "Huh, the scene at the beginning of the movies comes off as a bit sexist. I wonder if the director was aware of this."
Commenter 2: "Yeah, it does seems a little sexist. Though I'll admit it's doesn't look intentional. I think the director just didn't catch it. I think the writer is probably more at fault."
Buzzword Warrior: "Oh shut the fuck up! Yet more SJWs trying to push their feminazi propaganda!"

A failed attempt to appear knowledgeable about a subject by just spouting off buzzwords, all sandwiched together, usually in the form of broken, heavily accented english, in response to an IT question.
Q: What is an IP Address
A: We can use IP technology, google queries, powershell answers, and collaboration to reach out and circle back.
Amit used a Buzzword Sandwich rather than just saying she didn't know

Meaningless drivel. Things like “goal” or “shared vision.” And the assertion that you need these things is conjecture promulgated as fact.
Dr. Jordan Baalenciaga PeepPorp “You can only feel positive emotion in relationship to a goal”
Hym “This a prime example of Jordan Peterson (in the words of Brandon Shiff) stating conjecture as fact. See, he knows he’s doing it and he knows that it’s wrong for him to do it but he’s just going to keep doing it. Because right and wrong don’t matter to Jordan Peterson. The only thing that matters to Jordan Peterson is the preservation of his own will. Which is why he’s so obsessed with not being manipulated. YOUR will (on the other hand) is irrelevant. What you believe is irrelevant (to Dr. Jordan Peterson). And it’s demonstrably untrue. What about the weekend, Jordan? Was it my ‘goal’ to not work for a couple of days? No. But I feel positive emotion none the less. How about finding 20 dollar bill on the sidewalk. Positive emotion? Yes. Was it my goal to find money on the sidewalk? No.”

Dr. Qwertyuiop asdfghjkl “Anyone can find the exception!”
Hym “It’s not that there’s AN exception. It’s that that are so many exceptions that it makes it impossible for what you’re saying to be true. It’s the same with your ‘shared vision’ nonsense. You use these vague, amorphous terms to disguise the sophistry. How is a ‘shared vision’ and different from a ‘predictive model?’ I’m referring (of course) to your argument about climate change. This ‘share vision’ is not only unnecessary but it doesn’t really mean anything. And what happened to ‘not doing things that you know to be wrong and stupid?’ That’s what you do. It isn’t for you. Your entire propositional ethic is what is convenient for OTHER PEOPLE to do so that YOU don’t have to deal with them. OOHHH!!! 😱 That’s what this is! It’s YOU getting out of having to do therapy! That’s YOUR goal. Therapy was miserable and depressing for you because of how tragic people’s lives are, and now you don’t have to do it. You can ‘help people’ (who don’t actually need help) by promulgating your flawed ethic (that doesn’t hold up to scrutiny) and get that sweet, sweet positive emotion without having to do things you don’t want to do. Which is the definition of ‘moving towards a goal’ by the way. Doing things you don’t want to do. THAT IS HILARIOUS! HA! That’s the point of your buzzword psychology. Rendering therapy obsolete through sophistry.”

A word that does not mean what you think it means, but you are against it anyway.
Not specific to one group or ideology. Most people do this with something or another.

The use of communism as a Vizzini buzzword would make McCarthy proud.
Railing against automatic weapons when talking about Glocks shows you don't know what an automatic weapon is. It's just a Vizzini buzzword to you.
