Office-speak

I work in a hospital. Over the years, I have noticed the Human Resources director expresses himself using the same old, tired phrases. Then my boss started using them! Such as, it is what it is, instead of giving me an answer to my question. Instead of saying "I talked to so and so, it is ALWAYS, "I touched base". "Reach out" is just texting somebody. The worst is " I shared that with so and so". I feel like I should say, Thanks for Sharing!
Please talk to me normally, not in office-speak!

Freedom to Speak

"Freedom to Speak" is the way to say "Freedom of Speech" which makes more sense because it encourages people to speak more than when that right and freedom are called the "Freedom of Speech."
"Freedom of Speech" is a way of wording the "freedom to speak" in a way that distances the speaker(s) from the act. Humans do not "speech," they speak and can give a "speech." Calling that freedom the "Freedom to Speak" encourages people to speak more often and for longer swaths of time than when it is called the "Freedom of Speech." It is time to start using the expression which encourages Americans to SPEAK UP more. " God is in the details."

“let me speak”

“let me speak” is when one is behaving rather irrationally and shouts across the room at everyone to be quiet but producing it in a less civil way of screeching “lEt mE sPpPppEaKkkkkk!!!!” whilst raising the hands to the sides of ones shoulders. Only to be done by the less civil of society, whom have possibly forgotten ones manners, and whom have been acting like a rather pompous little toad. These people are often described by the as quite frankly shitcunts. good day, toodloo👋
“lEt mE sPpPppEaKkkkkk!!!!” screeched the ‘titty woman’.

As we speak

(1.) Often said in dramatic moments where the situation was never planned to happen but (2.) can be said in more casual moments
1. Flight 498 has had an engine fire and is heading to the nearest airport to make an emergency landing as we speak

2. I can see the delivery driver is en-route as we speak so you should have your food within the next 5 minutes

Gen Z Speak

Wiggers in general. Real English will always never be a white teenager's full English when you've gotten them to speak forced AAVE. It's like a Wish copy of Eminem. It has the same type but it's not as good as the original. Was an uncommon trend back in the day but now sprung off into being a mainstream modern culture pandemic.
