Three Word Syndrome

A phenomenon in the hardcore, metalcore and emo scenes where band names are dramatic constructions of three words or more. In some cases, the spaces between these words are removed for extra cool points.
There are lots of band names that suffer from Three Word Syndrome: Embrace the End, Killing the Dream, Bleed the Dream, Bleed the Sky, As Cities Burn, As Hope Dies, Beneath the Ashes, Boysetsfire, Skycamefalling, Prayer For Cleansing, November Coming Fire... Okay, I'm done with examples now.

wank word

In the UK and the Commonwealth, a strongly derogatory and deliberately vulgar term for a buzzword, signifying that it is worthless and meaningless jargon. Wank words may be short phrases as well as single words. The word is most often used of corporate, official, or academic language.

Also, wank-word bingo: See example. Also known as buzzword bingo or bullshit bingo in various places throughout the English-speaking world.
Before the meeting, Rose slipped everyone a sheet of paper. Each piece was ruled into a 5x5 grid of squares. Each square was filled in with a typical corporate wank word, and each sheet had a different combination of wank words.

Rose told everybody that they could make the meeting more interesting by playing wank-word bingo. She advised everyone to mark off any wank word Sir Charles uttered, and that the first person to mark off five in a line, vertically, horizontally, or diagonally, would be the winner.

Sir Charles began his presentation, and quickly came to speak of mission, vision, rightsizing, human capital, synergies, ecosystems, stakeholders, taking ownership, performance challenges, and negative outcomes. When he spoke the word "solutions", Nigel jumped up and yelled "BINGO!" Hasty and not entirely plausible explanations had to be made immediately after.

Microsoft Word

A piece of shit word-processing program that lets you create text documents... but before you do, it'll auto-edit (incorrectly, that is) your words, grammar, while sometimes it just wants to auto-format your work when you don't want it to. Mis-clicked anything? Highlighted some text? Well, for some mysterious reason, it'll move it to another text file because it's a flaming piece of crap. This is from Microsoft, people! Multi-billion dollar computer company! It can't even create a reliable word processing program!
I just want to create an essay! Don't fuckin' change my text font size to 10! Fucking shit! I don't want Arial, you flaming pile of horse shit, Times New Roman you mother fuckin' shitrag!

What the fuck? NO, I just want to fucking add an image!

5 MB!? Are you fucked?

Asshole! Get off my screen you obnoxious paper clip! Fuck!

Microsoft Word? More like "Microsoft Fucks You". FUCK.
