wordjack 

When a person takes a word or phrase from what you just said, and uses it in a completely unrelated, usually tedious and annoying context. "Wordjackers" think they are actually engaged in dialogue, when in fact their behavior demands immediate physical punishment.
Shawna: Did you see Christian Bale in The Machinist?
Trixie: No but my unemployed stepdad is a machinist!
Shawna: Don't wordjack me! (kicks Trixie in the face)

Microsoft Wordjacked 

A) When you have a Microsoft Word document you need to edit but only have access to OpenOffice or WordPad.

B) When you need to edit Microsoft Word 2007 documents but only have access to Word 2003 (and no way to download the stupid compatibility pack).

Workjacked

This occurs when you complete an assignment, project, or other accomplishment and a co-worker, supervisor, executive or other employee either
a. claims the credit for the work accomplished
b. discredits the work accomplished for no apparent reason
c. requests a lot of useless modifications or asks a lot of pointless questions to make the work seem inadequate

This situation is typically encountered when interacting with people who either do no or little work, have no accomplishments, and or are lacking in grey matter
