injective

An injection is a map f: A -> B such that
f(a)=f(b) => a=b for all a,b in A

The map f: R -> R given by f(x)=ax+b is injective.

Proof:

f(c)=f(d) <=> ac+b = ad+b <=> c=d

Incentivation

This poetic melding of incentive and motivation was coined by John Howard, the Austraian Prim Minister, late last century, but failed to grip the national imagination.

It is now a bit of a joke, kind of like the Liberation of Iraq.

We need to create an system of incentivation where workers are rewarded for their loyalty.

All Intensive Purposes

Originally used in common American/English vernacular as 'all intents and purposes' by just barely unintelligent people trying to sound as if the 'intents and purposes' surrounding them are highly important.

This phrase has since been changed to 'all intensive purposes' by people who do not listen carefully to the original phrase used in poorly written movies and who have also never seen it in print in equally poorly written books.

Also, the person listening to a speaker who says 'all intensive purposes' is likely to overlook it.

Tanar: Yeah, you're pretty much by best friend, but for all intensive purposes we'll just call it a tie between you and Kelsey.

Alyssa: Okay!

Incentivize

A corporate-jargon non-word meaning "motivate," coined in 1968. Some 10 years later, it was shortened to the equally annoying verb "incent." Unfortunately, both are recognized by both Merriam-Webster and the OED.

The only respectable form of the word is the noun "incentive."

I would like to motivate him to never say "incentivize" again by telling him I will rip his windpipe out of his throat the next time I hear him say it.

I hope everyone who says "incentivize" in earnest knows they come across as a jargon-spewing ahole.

Fecal Incontinence

The inability to control fecal matter from sliding out the anus and into the pant leg.

As a result of too much anal sex, the muscles used to keep the feces inside the rectum literally lose their "tread."

What it's like to have Fecal Incontinence

"Fuck you."
"No! Fuck you! You're adopted."
"Yeah, well, at least I don't shit my pants involuntarily."
".....You're adopted."
