I agree, “kudos” and “hunky d.” are beyond words nauseating.
“Bete noir” is okay with me, but I can see how it can be annoying.
What about “lining ducks in a row” – horrendous, isn’t it?

I can be indulgent towards kudos and Nitin’s hunky dory but
falana-dhimkana is off-putting and ting-ting/dinglu totally
baffling! Find the new sms-language difficult to accept too.

Enjoyed the post!

Ah ha! The dinglus and ting tings find pride of place.

What about herein/therein? How does that make you feel?
Oh, and do you remember the good ol’ Look Ma, No (fill appropriate body part/tech component/anything you want)?

For one client we had to do an edit job and for some reason, every passage (they were snapshots of restaurants) had ‘the usual suspects’. Needless to say. Hunh? Hunh?
